  • "It's not a quiet environment."
  • "Way too noisy and they kept turning up the volume which ruined the family night out."

Value for Money

  • "Express lunch menu at a very reasonable price and portion size doesn't differ from the evening meal."
  • "Very reasonably priced, ingredients fresh and food was zingy."
  • "On average, a Main would cost £10 - £15 per dish, while the Kids' Menu is definitely good value at £7 for a main, dessert & drink."

  • "For a part of six the bill came just over £20 with drinks, mains and starters."
  • "The meal was of 1st class standard well presented and hot and most of all great value for money."

Cons:

  • "Overpriced, unwelcoming, dull interior, felt very 'chain restaurant'."
  • "Food extremely good; fragrant and fresh and served in a timely manner. Knocked off a star as no ambience, service lacking and a bit pricey at £78 for two."
  • "However when we got the bill the service charge added was before the 2-4-1 offer was applied, so it was 10% of what the bill would have been if we didn't have 2-4-1."
  • "Overpriced."
  • "Prices are slightly steep, our bill came to £87 for 2 adults and 1 child, without dessert."
  • "The prices are very high."
  • "At £30 a head for a starter, main and Diet Coke each, I won’t be going here again."
