   Initially seated at a table right next to the entrance - a table which shouldn’t have been in use at all. We had booked so that was a very disappointing start. Food and service indifferent and not great value. 13.5 per cent service charge. Haven’t been for a few years and won’t be returning.

   Grossly overpriced for very average, small portioned food. The meals arrived almost immediately we ordered them which made me think they had been dished out ages before and left on a hot plate. Mine was lukewarm. The dessert sounded amazing on the menu, Donauwelle, but was very disappointing on its almost immediate arrival. Heavy, and not sponge like at all. In summary, the food was not freshly plated and the portions were small. The Brezel was the best item I had. The staff were very amenable though, the one plus point of the experience. I would not recommend.

   Had a fantastic evening with my daughter-great service from Ravi and his manager (name unknown), food was great and a fab vibe. Been before and will comeback again….

   Overall a lovely experience with good food and service. We felt the cakes were served colder than they should have been and this suppressed flavour somewhat.

   Fantastic food as always but whenever we eat here we are disappointed with the service , I am happy to pay a service charge if I get service but always struggle to get the waiters attention and a smile would be nice!

   The only thing that let it down was my cup of coffee! I was expecting my Americano to be served in a pot, but instead was served in a relatively small cup which had marks on the outside (stains not wiped from being poured) and the saucer had stains too. For the price, was expecting something a little better.
