    I thought I had booked a table, with both feet on the ground, but was allocated to a high table and perched on a stool. The restaurant was rather unpleasantly noisy - difficult to hear what my dinner guest was saying. Food was OK (although the tuna in the tuna burger was cold ... yesterday, I get that it was seared, not cooked through). Service was fine although the restaurant was very busy.
