    Food was excellent as always, lovely friendly staff. I’ve only deducted one star as we had to ask two or three times for water to be brought to the table as well as our drinks. Although there was a very good singer there it didn’t distract us too much and we were still able to have a conversation.

    Found this little gem and would recommend food and service very good and you get loads! Was nice to get a pre starter but wish we'd known it was coming as wouldn't have ordered starters and big portions but delicious. Also allow time for your meal and gaps in between courses quite long and we had to rush back for our parking but overall will be returning

    A stylish place to eat, plenty of space. Waiters readily available. Lovely food, very varied with finishing touches added to the plate. We have only had brunch/lunch but can recommend the Turkish breakfast.

    The service was great and the cocktails were really well made. Best margarita I have had for a while! The food was delicious and not over cooked at all. Will be back!
