    Had some friends from overseas I was trying to impress. I chose the right restaurant. The food was delicious, the service excellent and the room was small enough to feel intimate. Can’t think of negatives.

    Excellent food, staff were really helpful. We had been to the theatre so we didn't want a huge meal but a well cooked one and a place to catch up. I was with my two daughters for our xmas treat. The menu has a good variety of prices and we all enjoyed the Moules for starter which was a special for the day. We chose a lower priced wine from chile but it went really well with our choices. Lovely atmosphere. I would really recommend.

    Lovely pre-Christmas meal in central Oxford. We booked early after spending the day shopping and felt welcome and unhurried, although I’m sure they had a busy service. I also liked the layout - tables weren’t cramped together despite it being a compact venue. My oysters were spectacularly good, and my black bream main was cooked perfectly. My party also ate kidneys, rabbits and steak and had desserts. My chocolate dessert was a little one-dimensional, and the bread and sides were quite ambitiously priced for the quantity provided. However, overall, we thought this was a very enjoyable meal cooked and presented with evident skill and care.
