I called ahead to confirm that they could accommodate a dairy intolerance, and was assured that they could cater to various dietary needs. When I arrived and confirmed again that one of the party was dairy intolerant, it took longer than expected for our food to arrive. When it did, there was a difference in what was provided for me compared to the rest of the party. When I questioned this, the staff member said they struggle with dairy intolerances and only brought out a small fruit salad. Other places have either said they can't cater to it or have been more accommodating. The standard afternoon tea itself was not impressive either. Overall, we were not satisfied with our experience and do not plan to return, especially if you have dietary restrictions as you may be viewed as an inconvenience.

Overall, it was a very pleasant experience with delicious food and a wide menu selection. I will definitely be visiting again.

Well, whilst neither of us had previously dined at Oscars, at only 6.00/6.30pm on a Friday evening, we were the only ones in the restaurant and strangely, even by 8.00pm, there was only one other family in for dinner almost an unearthly silence. That said, we wanted a quiet dinner, easy catch up and we certainly got that and I suppose we could make as much noise as we wanted....but now down to service and food, This is not an evening menu with an absolute vast choice and in some ways that would hopefully demonstrate, what they do cook, they might cook very well. We ordered a selection of starters for all to share and four quite diverse main courses, chicken, salad, sea bass, pasta all arrived beautifully presented, wonderfully tasty and where applicable, piping hot. We were informed afterwards, quite oddly, that their busiest restaurant times are during the week, rather than weekends. Would we dine here again......yes, hopefully experiencing an overall better atmosphere.

Great choice, fresh ingredients, freshly prepared with skill and competence. The lamb shank is to die for as is the Sunday roast. The wife had the sea bass and I've rarely seen her clear the plate with as much gusto. She raved over the fish. Would definitely go again. Not the cheapest at first sight yet excellent value for what's on offer. Plus clean well appointed decor and surroundings. Service with a smile. Recommended.
