  What a gem of a restaurant

  Our visit was the usual standard of pure excellence! The ambience was wonderful, comfortable and so friendly. The service was the perfect balance being well looked after while going at our own pace. The food was top notch - it couldn't be fresher if it was cooked right at our table. Fabulous! Everything was perfect i definitely can't wait to go back - fortunately I don't have to wait too long as I'll be back there tomorrow!

  Looking for an excuse to go back ASAP!

  My daughter's birthday meal was, as ever, fabulous! Our welcome was very warm, the service was fantastic and the food could not have been fresher if it had been cooked at our table! It is a very relaxing place in which to be, exuding warmth and friendliness and the quality of the food is first class. Can't wait to go back!
