    We went here on the final night of our weeks stay and it was an upscale but quaint change from the rest… Food was very good. Service was professional and attentive. Ambience was excellent. Great for an intimate dinner or family setting.

    Lovely staff, food good but not special. Reasonable value but wouldn't rush back if I'm honest

    We had been to this restaurant several times last year and it was brilliant . However this time it was not . I had the beef lasagne which was pretty tasteless as they seemed to have cut down on tomato flavouring that is essential in a good lasagne ,I had had this before so knew this was inferior than previously. My husband had the Sirloin steak which he asked to be medium -well done . It was well done he. Old have used it to leather his shoe , terrible. Such a shame .

    This little restaurant provides a friendly and relaxed atmosphere. If you're wanting a quick meal this isn't the place for you. They are a small team and food can take a while to arrive but it is worth waiting for. Good quality food, friendly staff and good prices. Would definitely recommend a visit or two!

    Excellent food. The steaks are the best we have had in the town. The waiting staff are attentive and friendly. When it is busy the food can take a little while to arrive, but as everything is cooked to order that is excusable. This restaurant is off the seafront but is an absolute gem of a find. We would highly recommend..

    Great little restaurant used it twice while away.Good menu at reasonable prices,friendly staff.All of us enjoyed our meal and will definitely use again when next over

    7.0

    Enjoyable meal with pleasant and efficient service. Excellent wine recommendation and offering a complimentary port at the end of the meal was a nice touch. However, both the steaks ordered could only be described as “average” , were a little disappointing and not cooked as requested “ medium rare”. The kebabs at a neighbouring table looked good.
