Excellent service, catered to my intolerances and reassured me I would be looked after. The waiter took note of all my needs and told me everyone who was dealing with my order knew what I couldn’t have. Food was beautiful and staff were great! Definitely recommend! *****

Absolutely terrible. I was looking forward to this resturant for a while. Presentation looks good but food is awful (did not think that was possible) Crab burger looked good, but was dripping wet with seafood sauce, as soon as you picked it up, wet ran out and the bun was soaking wet soggy. My crab claw gratin was tasteless and slightly fishy (concerning). House platter had sandy snails. Chips were cold. Staff never ever asked us how our meal was. I was there for my birthday and was terrible!

Very expensive restaurant. The lunch menu seems good value for money, but the choice is not good. Main dishes with crab are around £25 each.

Everything was fantastic! Only thing is that I wanted to really enjoy the crab and lobster. But ordered from the lunch menu, which I felt didn’t have much options. But I’ll go back again and try the main menu. Other than that, service, decor, light and staff were great!

We found the service and menus to be very good on our visit.I enjoyed the crab dish I had but my husband was dissapointed with his lobster which he was looking forward to as he found it slightly over cooked.

Hard to see who this is for. Quite expensive and uninventive food plus garish decor and oddly loud music. Nothing terrible but much better restaurants in (or well below) that price point in that area!

We arrived late for our booking but called before hand to let the restaurant know and they were so understanding. We went during quiet period. Everything from appetiser, starter, main to dessert was very tasty! Compliments to the chef and the staff for being attentive and accommodating! Will be back again!

Service was slow. Crab was disappointing. Truffle fries and salmon tartare are excellent. Not bad restaurant for the location but perhaps a little overpriced on some of the food.

Tasty food and friendly staff. For the price you pay you do expect it to be perfect (some food was a bit under done or a bit overdone) and felt a bit rushed as staff were getting ready to close for NYE

Despite eye contact with 3 members of staff upon entering, no one came over. Not so much as a smile from female staff who looked like they couldn't wait to go home. The male waiter however was friendly and helpful. Food was good but service and atmosphere is everything. A bit of a let down having spent £175 for two of us.

The food is very expensive for the portion size. I ordered half a lobster but it was basically just a shell with hardly any meat in it. I didn’t feel satisfied. I also wouldn’t say that the food tasted particularly special considering the price. The restaurant was very quiet and even tho they were not busy our waitress did not remember a few things we had asked for, like condiments for our food, but they still added the service charge on to the bill.

Nice atmosphere and you can watch your food being prepared. Portions of the dishes on the fixed lunch menu are not huge but are very tasty. The crab of the a la carte is delicious
