    Fantastic food from the top to the bottom of the menu....we tried most of them ! The Cod was super fresh and the Onglet was incredible. The stand out dish was the spinach with slipcote cheese and walnuts. This group of restaurants always make vegetable taste special. Oh and the crab Fideua with ali oli was great too. It's all good. The service is friendly and welcoming and just what you want from a "neighbourhood restaurant". Thank you for a really nice evening, really special !

    Fantastic staff and a warm and friendly welcome. We had a booty table (highly recommend) staff were really lovely. Fish heavy menu as a heads up, the restaurant Amy is lively and ambiance was perfect. We were rushed off the table after 2 hours unfortunately (offered another table) but that was the only thing that spoilt it for us. Wine is very expensive.. overall a lovely evening.

    We had an excellent experience today for lunch. Friendly prompt service and delightful interesting dishes to choose from the blackboard menu. Wine was offered by the glass - it was reasonably priced and a good selection. We enjoyed sharing all of the dishes and in particular loved the crab. Many thanks.
