• "I felt this dish was slightly ruined by the fact there was a very bitter sauce at the bottom."

Service Quality

Pros:

• "The staff was really friendly and attentive, catering to our dietary requirements."
• "The service is professional and efficient."
• "Extremely friendly staff and they make you feel welcome and treasured."
• "The whole experience was a delight from taste to presentation, including a very attentive service."
• "The service was impeccable and we felt really warmly welcome."
• "Service - exceptional."
• "Professional, friendly staff."
• "Staff Friendly and attentive without being overbearing."

Cons:

• "Service: Good but not enough. Don’t pay attention to details."
• "Food service was extremely slow. It took 1.5h to get the first dish in a tasting course."
• "Despite seeing so many good reviews, I wasn’t too impressed by the experience I had yesterday."
• "Great experience, 1 star knocked off for a dish that should not have left the kitchen."
• "Sadly, I have to mark it down for one fundamental failure."
• "The exquisite flavours achieved here have to be the absolute zenith of the chef's craft... Nothing was too much trouble, allergies not just managed but the substitutions were fully in line and in every way comparable with the preferred dishes."
• "Not because they were rushing to do something else, but because 'a manager' has to take it. Service standard overkill, it irritates people more to ask three times than to get someone who can't explain the menu fully (which we didn't need), common sense issue really."
• "Somewhat underwhelming food. Food was bland but beautifully presented. We choice the wine pairing which was a mistake as we had very odd wines served all but one of which were very sweet. Not value for money. £600 for 3 of us."
