  • "The service was poor. We were seated over half an hour late."
  • "We were also ignored or forgotten about as we weren't offered bread and oil like every other table."
  • "the service was quite scattered, servers were inattentive even though they were fairly nice themselves (no check backs, no offers for more drinks, no offers for condiments etc)."
  • "The service was terrible."
  • "The only thing was that when we ordered the dessert and waited for 25 mins, then the staff said the order didn’t go to the kitchen so we need to wait another 6-8 mins, however, we waited another 20mins for that."

Food Quality

Pros:

  • "All food was delicious and would definitely recommend the crab and sweet corn bonbons for starters."
  • "The food and service was flawless - I had Fish Soup and my wife the Jackfruit Fritters to start, for mains I had the Crab with Fries and my wife the Fish Curry. Delicious."
  • "Food is cooked to perfection!"
  • "The mains were tremendous, seasonal game sausage, mussels, and the Malabar Fish Curry was sweet and spicy with a big fat juicy prawn to complete the haddock, a true delicate winter warmer."
  • "The food is of an exceptionally high quality, from the beautifully crafted starters through the scrumptious mains to the delicious desserts."
  • "The food was excellent."
  • "The food was delicious, well presented, simply but skillfully prepared as is the French way, letting the ingredients sing."

Cons:

  • "The burger was quite dry, especially the bun as it felt reheated and not recommended."
  • "The food was not up the standard I expected."
  • "The main for both me and my partner I found lacking in quality I’d give it a 5/10."
  • "Wild mushrooms were very bitter and undercooked."
  • "The Soufflé is the worst I have ever eaten. It was so eggy, barely any Cheese flavors and it was Luke warm too."
  • "The Roulade consisted of a small amount of lamb wrapped around an off tasting mince meat of some sort, centre which was a disappointment."
  • "They are putting toast and tin crab meat on a plate and calling it a starter."
