"The food is amazing. They have put a lot of effort into putting together a very interesting menu and executing it perfectly."
"Incredible service, great food- I recommend trying everything! The food was impeccable."
"Food is stunning, well presented with great service! The focaccia is always freshly prepared and super fluffy!"
"The food was exceptional and also quite reasonable in price for the quality and portion sizes."
"The meat itself was absolutely perfect, just slightly overpowered by the salty sauces."
"The food is fantastic, as is the atmosphere and service."
"Amazing place. Wonderful food, not crazily priced considering the quality."
"Beautifully presented food and delicious. You get what you pay for here as it’s five star!"
Cons:
"We thought the burrata was delicious, but the least well presented for all the dishes."
"We found our main dishes to be slightly on the salty side due to the dressing/sauce."
"We were served warm beer, which was not to our liking. Our steak, ordered medium rare, was served on a cold plate, had a rubbery texture, overcooked to medium."
"I wanted to love Socius, but in the end I thought the food at Sunday lunch was good but not great."
"The food was of an obviously high quality, yet quite under seasoned and bland."
"The majority of the main dishes were covered in far too much oil."
"I found the food too salty and rushed. The atmosphere was not conducive for a quiet lunch."
"Food is good, not mind blowing. Had big expectations and sadly disappointed."
Service
Pros:
"Service was attentive and really great. They fully catered for my boyfriend's egg and dairy intolerance."
"They did well to accommodate my wife who can’t eat dairy, the waiter knew all the answers off the top of his head."
"The service is always impeccable and friendly, they have smashing wine list, and cocktails on the main menu."
"Fantastic flavours and excellent cooking. The service was spot on."
"Every dish was fantastic and there are several great vegetarian options. The apple caramel dessert was sensational, one of the best desserts I've ever had."
"We were lucky enough to secure a cancellation table. From the moment we arrived we felt truly welcome, like dining at a friend's house."
"The staff are so attentive and helpful. It looks gorgeous inside and out."
"Again faultless service and food. Fresh flavours and ingredients combined beautifully."
Cons:
"We were surprised when the wrong waitress came outside to apologise while my friend and I were having a private conversation, which felt unprofessional."
"Although we were given a replacement steak, we found that it had the same issue."
"My daughter complaining of eating noticeably large bits of salt?!?! Just no need for it."
"The majority of the main dishes were covered in far too much oil."
"For the rest of the meal we felt so rushed, we felt like they were in a hurry to take our order, serve us and get us out for the next customer."
"The food was lovely...... but...... so much salt."
"It was absolutely amazing, loved everything from the first step in the doorway with a lovely warm welcome to our exit."
"Very loud because of the open space and the music playing does not suit the venue."
Ambiance
Pros:
"The atmosphere was nice but not exceptional, modern but maybe a little boring."
"The ambience is also great. We had a fabulous meal here."
"Interior and exterior is very welcoming, there’s no giant chandelier or a butler telling you how the restaurant is restaurant of the year."
"The food was full of flavour and perfectly seasoned. Nothing too complicated as well, simple with a flare. Hits the spot!"
"The place is very cozy and atmospheric, me and my husband were welcomed and offered a table on the first floor."
"A beautiful, contemporary but relaxed environment."
"Stumbled across this 'gem' of a restaurant during our 4 days exploring Norfolk and what a find."
"The space is bright and although there is background music it was so busy the hubbub of conversation rendered it inaudible most of the time."
Cons:
"The food, however, was exceptional and we hope to return and hopefully get to fully appreciate the qualities of what I'm sure is a really class act."
"There is only one downside and that is that all the food is, for my palate, much too sweet and that spoils what would otherwise be a perfect experience."
"The atmosphere was not conducive for a quiet lunch. Noisy vibe."
"We didn't stay. We sat and waited for service but it didn't come and quite honestly, the prices were a bit silly."
"It was very hard to have a proper conversation."
"The atmosphere was nice but not exceptional, modern but maybe a little boring."
"The space does feel a bit barn-like but up on the balcony the proximity of the roof lent intimacy."
