As always the set menu at lunch time was super. Very good service and very good value for money. Would recommend to anyone. It's well worth a visit either as a couple or with friends.

Choice of food was amazing. All tasted amazing. The red wine was amazing. Loved the whole experience. Only one small problem - one of us ordered (there were three of us) a desert - we had to remind the waiter three times & it took 30 minutes to arrive. We had all finished our coffees by the time it arrived. However, we are all happy to make a return visit.

My wife ordered ribeye steak,she found that there was an excessive amount of fat.She places the fat on the side of her plate. She brought the amount of fat to the attention of the waiter,who informed her that as the steak was ribeye had fat. We have eaten ribeye steaks in the past,both restaurant and supermarket bought.Our companions commented that the fat on the side of the plate looked disgusting. My wife said she enjoyed the steak,but the fat put here off!

Visited with a group of 8 friends from Scotland. We were waited on by Tom 'from Byker' who was incredibly attentive. The food was very good, I had been recommended the fish stew and it was delicious. There was quite a lot of choice on the menu so everyone found something suitable. We all had a wonderful evening and I'll definitely be going back. (Lisa and friends from Callander)

We had a great seats in the restaurant in a booth looking into Central Arcade which I really enjoyed. The service we received was excellent, friendly and professional but not overpowering which I liked. We both chose the Duck with Lyonnaise potato as a main course and it really good following a starter we shared of mixed olives with a onion topped flatbread. The whole meal was really enjoyed and the addition of a bottle of Syrah was a wise choice ! We have been to this restaurant several times and will be returning.

We arrived here for breakfast and enjoyed it so much we came back for Tea. The staff were friendly and welcoming and the menu was fabulous and for the feast we had on both occasions you could not fault the price. We had booked on the complimentary wine deal but wanted to eat from the set menu, however since only one guest was drinking wine they generously served a large glass free of charge!! With the lovely surroundings, great staff and fabulous food, I don’t know why you would eat any where else. One very happy Birthday girl.

An interesting and diverse menu, including a good value prix fixe (although we chose from the a la carte, as one of the February specials was swordfish steak). Very good food quality and presentation, discreet and friendly service, comfortable ambience, well matched wine list, including by the glass. It wouldn't do any harm to offer 125ml glasses in addition to the 175ml and 250ml volumes. Our only negative is the inclusion in the bill of an optional 12.5% gratuity. Regrettably this is a very common tactic by restaurants these days and you need to be quite a robust personality to challenge it. The bill did not mention this sum being shared amongst the workforce, so one suspects this is simply a profit booster that requires no effort by management. It takes the shine off an otherwise very pleasant dining experience.

A lovely family meal with visiting relatives. The staff were so hospitable and the early evening menu is great value. Particularly pleased with the way my younger daughter was accommodated - she’s 13 but with a small appetite so asked for the children’s menu. This was supplied without question (not the case in many restaurants where her age or eligibility is often challenged) and she was even able to order dessert from the main menu later when she decided she could manage one. All staff were very kind and friendly, the food was delicious and the restaurant really neat and clean.

Staff professional and friendly. Food was good, we chose off the special 3 course menu for £18.95. Good value for money. Also had a bottle of wine. Think the additional 12.5 % service charge added automatically is cheeky and high.

Main was really good (we had pork belly, Tuna salad and one of the chicken dishes) and nice relaxing atmosphere. A little disappointed with 2 of the starters (Prawn and flatebread but really liked the calamari). Good selection of different dishes, good for vegetarians. Only problem - asked one of the dishes to exclude creme but they were unable to accommodate, which question the sauces are pre-made.

I booked the table for four for my birthday after receiving an email offering free aperitifs. We were not offered the drinks - I had to ask for them twice - we had a trainee waiter and then an experienced one and then the trainee again - by the time we received the two free drinks it was after the main course and not really appropriate by then. We were overcharged for our food due to confusion over what was ordered on the set menu and the a la carte. The small portion of bread and olives had an extortionate charge. We did not feel the 12.5% service charge which was automatically included in the bill was justified.

Really lovely warm welcoming restaurant- staff very friendly and attentive. Plenty of choice and different pricing menus for those eating early evening. The food was delicious and well presented with enough time between courses not to feel rushed. We had 3 courses each and no complaints about anything we were served. Would definitely return again as so much more to try. Well worth the money.
