    Below average food at a very high price. Service was very slow and it wasn’t particularly busy. Setting is gorgeous but not worth the hype or the money. Good place for drinks but much better places for food

    The service really was outstanding and this is still one of our absolute favourite restaurants but it was really disappointing that there was no lobster and no skinny fries! The food we did have was most excellent especially the prawns.

However, I will look into the issues you have raised so we can further improve. Kind regards

    Overpriced. £370 for a 2 person on Christmas, no drinks included, not worth it by any stretch of the imagination
