   It was brilliant and the food was delicious. However, the service did take a while to come but overall a very good restaurant and will go back again sometime.

   Our server was awful, clearly ignoring as a result of her racism. The food was not good, and if it wasn’t for a very kind manager we would have been there for 4 hours.

   Absolutely loved my time there . It was my birthday and they truly made it a special experience. I even got a desert with a candle to blow . Really enjoyed myself in there. And the meals ; fantastic. I loved the lasagne so much,it's been so long I had a well made lasagne ; they did it to perfection. Also if it’s your first time there , I highly recommend the scallops ; it’s a must have starter . The staff too were great .

   The starter came about 3 mins after ordering before our drinks ordered10 mins before - the water for the table never arrived. The main course arrived 1hr and 15 mins after the starter and was mediocre at best and certainly overpriced - overall a very disappointing experience
