"Amazing food great portion sizes. We stopped in on a whim, which was definitely worth it. The outside doesn't look like it's a restaurant, but ignore the exteria and go and be amazed by the food. The staff are friendly helpful and polite."

"Absolutely fantastic food, don't be deceived by the outside as it needs a little updating, but once you're inside it's beautifully clean and great service. The food was all cooked to order and tasted deliciously fresh, the meat was moist and tender and the sauces were beautifully seasoned, not at all too salty. The chef himself came to check we were enjoying our meal. We thoroughly enjoyed our dinner and would gladly come back again ASAP!"
