I like first time before. This time meat a bit too dry and less saus at the side. Also get seat very close with bin and kitchen. Service good always

The food was good but even though the place was half empty you offered us weird seats. And then you kept bumping into me while you were passing behind me. The couple of decent seats you did not let us sit were still empty as we were leaving.

Waitress didn't tell us the specials. She then tried to open the bottle of wine which she couldn't do and had to get help. She then spilled the wine on the table. She didn't know what one dish was and had to go and ask even though the menu was quite short. Seriously Resteraunt Black train your staff before letting them loose on the customers.

We had a lovely early dinner there. Had a theater thing afterwards. Food came quickly. The tournedos was very good, super tender meat. We had asked for it to be cooked rare, and it could have come a little redder, but it was so good that we didn't mind. The Brussels sprouts were amazing!

The food is very good. I was a bit disappointed the menu is different than what shows in google as it’s still their Xmas menu but that disappointment faded when food arrived. Stuffed cornish hen is delicious as are the roasted Brussel sprouts and the sweet potato fries were done perfectly. Service is friendly & food arrived quickly. Only downside is it was quite chilly inside. But definitely enjoyed my meal!
