    Very nice food included the chicken schnitzel, the prawn risotto and the lamb but none of these dishes had the wow factor and our group felt they were a bit over priced for what it was. Wait staff were very friendly, particularly a lovely french woman. The restaurant wasn't full and they didn't rush us through which was a nice change from so many places these days that are always in a hurry to get you in and out. Background music wasn't intrusive so we were able to carry on a conversation.
