Food Quality

Pros:

  • "Last time the food was brilliant, I had lamb chops and my wife had lamb shanks."
  • "The food is cooked with passion and the flavours burst."
  • "The steak was great, veg not so much, but the service really made us feel welcome."
  • "Serving sizes are generous and quality of the meat is great."

Cons:

  • "The tomahawk steak, which cost £50, was overpriced and tasted dry without any moisture."
  • "My family also got the lamb shank which was dry."
  • "The steak had a lot of fat for my liking, had to cut off almost a quarter of fat to get to the actual meat."
  • "My lamb shank was very fatty and tasted like a supermarket shank in sauce ready meal."

Service Quality

Pros:

  • "Service was great. They really made us feel welcome and looked after, no rush at all."
  • "The service was excellent and really helpful. No rushing, very attentive yet not overbearing."
  • "Staff were friendly and polite. Food came out quickly even though they were busy."

Cons:

  • "Despite only 3 tables being occupied, I had to walk to the bar 3 times for simple things."
  • "We waited two hours for our food that was cold. The service was atrocious."
  • "Very bad service, the staff mocked me and laughed at my preference on how I wanted my steak."
  • "When I asked the waiter about how the lamb is prepped, he told me they have no control as they don't have a lamb farm."

Atmosphere and Decor

Pros:

  • "The decor is stunning and picturesque, there is a great atmosphere when you enter this restaurant."
  • "Nice venue & staff, the decor is fab with an outside area at the back."
  • "One of the best decor restaurants by far in Watford and surrounding areas."

Cons:

  • "Leaking toilet and sinks and a very messy restaurant."
  • "Unfortunately where we were seated was not cleaned thoroughly and my seat had crumbs on it."
  • "Interior really nice, but the food... it's awful!"

Value for Money

Pros:

  • "Food portions are big, we had the babaganoush to share between two of us and then shared a steak and lambs chops."
  • "For the price, the food and service were worth it. We left feeling very full in the end."

Cons:

  • "Food was on the pricier side. For the price, I don't know if I'd be back."
  • "£9 for 5 rings of fried breaded calamari is an example of the price you will pay."
  • "£250 for 4 adults is a lot for Watford and certainly wasn't the best steak I've ever had."
