The place was rammed on a Tuesday night which meant that service took a while, but it was friendly and accommodating. Once we ordered, food came out pretty quick despite it being busy. The food is average, nothing to rave on about like so many people here. I’d recommend the goats cheese starter for sure. The mains dishes are plentiful but if you’re after elegance, you might want to head somewhere else. Oh, and it’s dirt cheap!

I visited this restaurant for the first time with a friend, and I can guarantee it won't be my last! The food was incredible, and the service was impeccable. It was a wonderful experience from start to finish. You’d be hard-pressed to find food that’s both delicious and beautifully presented anywhere else. The owner and staff truly made us feel at home and valued. Everything was absolutely perfect! I'm quite picky, but I couldn't find a single thing to complain about.
The service was fantastic, and the staff were incredibly accommodating. I had the best Grilled Halloumi I've ever tasted! There was a live singer that added to the wonderful atmosphere after our meal.
Enjoyed a lovely afternoon celebrating my daughters birthday. Great service as always, lovely friendly staff. The food was delicious I had the mushroom and asparagus risotto and it was gorgeous. Took full advantage of the 2 for 1 cocktails and they were really nice. Never disappointed when we visit here and will definatley be returning.

We went before the theatre and the service was quick. We were in and out within 1 hour. Service felt a bit rushed to begin with as we were asked multiple times if we were ready to order even though we had only been at the table a couple of mins. This is in the ideal place to grab some food before a show. Food was tasty. Portions were average (could have been better). We weren’t shown the specials board which other tables were given to view. The restaurant itself is quite small with tables packed inside (not much room to move around the tables). There is no room for waiting as it has a very small (1 person) entrance way. Staff were helpful and friendly. Service: Dine in Meal type: Dinner Price per person: £10–20 Food: 5 Service: 4 Atmosphere: 4
