  • "Food took forever, mine arrived cold, requested med/rare was served blue and cold."
  • "A few dishes are okay, however any good flavors are washed away by the arrogant management and discourteous waiting staff."
  • "Food poor: rubbery egg Florentine and tasteless hake on undercooked and underflavoured chick peas."
  • "The Chicken & Walnut salad seemed to have been assembled by someone who hates salad additionally the chicken was as dry as an old moccasin."

Cons:

  • "For £10 I would've expected a bit more!"
  • "However 12.5% gratuity scandalous especially as our bill of £52 included wine @ £25."
  • "Lovely setting and an upscale ambience, however very small portions and remaining high prices now put it far behind the myriad of other options on the Horsham high street."
  • "Again please take off the 10% gratuity! I always give a tip of above 10%. But I refuse to when it's automatically on the bill."
  • "Pretty poor to be frank - french onion soup pretty weak, fries soggy and not many of them."
  • "Food portions were minimal and the food overpriced."
  • "It's very expensive for a lunch wine is a rip off also had a very upset stomach 2 hours later won't be going again."
