I feel a bit bad about this but they should know.... The food on the plate didn't match what was on the menu. Celery in place of leek is not a great substitution as well as other missing ingredients. The sauce for the squid was at the bottom of the bowl, didn't know it was there until half the squid was gone and it was yum. Better to make an early booking as it tends to take a while for the food to come out. Cocktails are terrible (tried two types), hot toddy with no honey???? but the wine list is great.
Went twice with a large group, none us will be back unfortunately. On a positive note, it has beautiful decor. Just don't sit by the window as the sensor driven security light constantly turns on and off which kills the ambiance a bit. Either on or off would be better....
Staff are very friendly and well presented.
