All was wonderful except our starter of calamari which is a favourite. This time the batter was far thicker and heavier. A shame. The remainder of the meal was up to the usual excellent level.

We were celebrating a birthday and our waiter brought a candle with the desserts which was delightful. The food was excellent as usual and we had complimentary kir royals to start with. Our main waiter was fabulous and professional.

We had a lovely evening, service and food were both excellent and there was a warm buzzy atmosphere. My only criticism is that tables are a little small for four people in a party and quite close together - it does feel a bit too cosy at times!

We chose to go on New Year's Eve as we'd had a lot of people round over Christmas. The menu had good choices on it, lots of interesting dishes and it was nice to have the option of paired wines or not if you didn't fancy them. We were well looked after and not rushed. Thanks very much.

We were very impressed with the service we received on our wedding anniversary at your restaurant in Reading. We asked for some flowers to be on our table when we arrived which were lovely and we had a nice meal .When we received the bill and queried the fact that the flowers were not on it they said they were on the house. My wife and I are regular customers to your restaurants and were very grateful for the gesture and will pass on our experiance to our friends and family. Thanks again
