Had a fantastic experience on a Friday night. Lovely staff, friendly and attentive. Great food and menu to suit most tastes. Had 3 courses for 2 people and the Paella to share and sardine starter was fantastic!
What a fantastic independent family run restaurant. Excellent food and great value for money. Can't recommend this restaurant enough
A fantastic dinner for 5 here tonight. A 5pm Saturday sitting so expectedly fairly quiet at that time, but service was very friendly. The food here is top notch, decent portions, and you can tell they use good quality ingredients. The wine selection was fairly limited but we had their best rose wine which was priced at around 24 and was superb. As we left all tables were then taken, a good sign that people recognise the quality standards here. I would definitely recommend this place for people who enjoy great food, decent on wine, and a wonderful night out. It's lovely to see a good local restaurant, thankfully therefore not part of a nationwide chain, to give you everything you need for an incredibly satisfying night out with friends and family.
Excellent service and great food! Fish and chips were amazing!
This really is a hidden gem We were looking for something a little different to the normal, and this really did hit the spot. Very friendly atmosphere, spotlessly clean, and the food wow I had the Octopus for mains, and for a moment, I forgot that I was in the UK. The flavours Cheesecake for dessert gave that sweet tooth exactly what was needed. The portion size is very good. I will definitely be making this place a regular visit to work my way through the variety on the menu. Spoilt for choice is an understatement Sadly, there were no photos. I was far too interested in eating
