• "The food was average I had scampi and to be honest I've had a lot better scampi in my local weather spoons."
• "The peppercorn sauce left much to be desired and although upgrading from the 4oz steak to the 8oz, it looked tiny so not sure they changed it."
• "I ordered a medium steak with my mixed grill, which arrived rare, yet was full of gristle, and tough."
