• "We ordered burgers and spaghetti for the children and My husband and I shared a surf and turf for 2 with extra order of mussels and side salad. The service was friendly and quite swift. We were asked how we would like our steak to be cooked. My husband said medium rare. It arrived well done."
• "Good cocktails and friendly staff. Ambiance is nice and appropriate for couples or for a group. Unfortunately when we came, they were out of several of the most popular oysters."
• "Our waiter, Peter, has been attentive and genuine in his suggestions. The quality of the food and this special oven cooking system is simply superb. There is several rooms which gives some more intimate atmosphere."
• "Great food, wonderful staff and lovely views. Especially nice in the summer to sit on the terrace. I'm slightly allergic to shellfish but thankfully the menu has enough fish dishes to pick and my salmon was just divine!"
• "We were sitting outside with our puppy. On the street another dog barked which made my our puppy bark twice - something very normal. One of the waiters came and kept shushing at our dog, which is extremely rude!"
• "Modern restaurant with an emphasis on fish dishes. Food was good but expensive. Service so-so. We would have ordered dessert and another round of drinks but unfortunately the (poorly trained) waiting staff were in short supply...thanks Brexit voters!"
