    Slightly fewer staff than the price justified - not as attentive as usual. Hazelnuts added to dessert despite request otherwise.

    Not great, our server was lovely but food was really bad and couldn’t eat it, just be aware that they won’t refund you even if you have a bad meal.

    Legit one of the best meals that me and my family have ever had and I don’t say that lightly! A highlight was the tuna steak which was not only the largest tuna steak I had ever seen but also the tastiest. Cannot recommend this place enough.
