Table of 8 of us booked for a 5pm sitting, restaurant was not busy at all. It was a special occasion but zero service given by any waiting staff …had to ask many times for water etc had to even ask if we had a waiter got met with a sarky response . Food was ok and came quickly but just the lack of service and the fact we were charges £50 for service just left a sour taste . Deffo very complacent there now as I went a year ago and the service was outstanding and great interaction with everyone who worked there…sadly not this time!
