    My wife and I dined on Thursday night for our anniversary. We had the onion soup that was bitter and burnt and inedible. I then had the eye fillet steak which was blue when I asked for medium rare. They cooked the SAME steak further and it was still blue in the centre but I ate it. My wife had the beef cheek which she said was ok but over peppered with black pepper. I had the crepe Suzette and a couple of crepes were burnt at the edges. My wife had the tart and she left most as the pastry was undercooked and the apple was mushy. Great service, great ambiance, good menu, awful food.
