    Really disappointed with our meal here. The service was terrible; when we walked in nobody came to greet us or sit us down, I had to approach a waitress who then sent me over to a lady who seated us. We waited a long time for our food which we could understand if it was busy, but we could see it sat on the hot plate for 10 minutes before it got brought over. The waitresses were just stood around chatting instead of waiting on tables. We ordered drinks that came wrong and took a long time too. The food was terrible. It was honestly comparable to a weatherspoons dish, which is not what you expect when you walk in. The only positives were that it is a lovely venue with a good ambience. Would only ever go back for a drink!

    I came here about 2 years ago and had a bad experience as I had to send my food back to the kitchen three times. As it's been a while I decided to try it again so booked it for my birthday. It's safe to say I won't be returning again. Starters - about 4 of us ordered the salt n pepper squid. Two portions were decently sized and the other two were tiny. someone ordered cod tacos for main and it was like sponge, it couldn't be eaten. another ordered steak tacos also inedible, it tasted like rubber. Both had to be sent back. someone ordered a side of broccoli, it was so limp that also couldn't be eaten. I ordered sweet potato fries for a side and they never arrived. The waiters were not attentive, we had to keep trying to get their attention to get served. Overall it was just very poor service and very very poor food. The only thing we didn't have a problem with were the drinks, but that's not great when you take a group of friends out to celebrate your birthday.

    The customer service is AWFUL! I would not recommend at all The interior is lovely, the food is of decent quality but certainly not worth the wait. We had to keep calling for a waiter to be attended to, no one seemed to care that we were there however to our dismay other customers were being served who got there after us. Felt very discriminatory and this is not my first time being there. I will not waste a single penny here again.

    Honestly the place is good and not bad for a group dinning. I was not really happy with my first order but they dealt with it and sorted it out for me at the end!
