    We were put at a table downstairs opposite the door and it was very cold every time it opened. One main meal was missed and came late to the table. Had been a few months ago and the food was a different class.

    Very good food but missed desserts because no one told us table required for next booking, only told 15 mins before we were 'evicted'. Would have happily accepted this, just tell your diners!

    The specials menu was fab . Couldn’t decide between scallops or lobster linguine!! Had the scallops as a main course in the end and they were delicious. My husband had eclairs for dessert ( helped at the end by me ) and they were amazing! Our waitress was brilliant!!

    A great local restaurant. Food reliably good and great to see specials changing regularly. Good cocktails and staff are very helpful and polite. The restaurant was very busy and looked fully booked so sometimes hard to get someone’s attention. I would definitely go here regularly and recommend it. Great addition to Holywood.

    On the whole it was good. The Bread starter was extremely unattractive, with a massive pile of bread. It would be so much more attractive to present a smaller portion of a variety of breads and two or three different oils. The main course of sausages was not good. The quality of the sausages did not justify their being the centre of a meal and I'm not at all sure they were as described in the menu. We had to wait a long time to be served but I understand that this is probably due to the current difficulty of finding sufficient numbers of kitchen staff. The serving staff are extremely good.

    The staff were good and very attentive. The cocktails were a bit unbalanced in my opinion - overly sweet and the next overly sour (we had four different ones and everyone thought the same). Starters were great - really tasty and well presented. Main course was mediocre - and when I sent a plate back with 3/4 of the food still on it, I wasn't asked if it was ok, which I thought a little odd. Overall its good value for money. Maybe I chose poorly but its not a huge selection. The menu showed on Open table is also outdated and incorrect.
