This is a great restaurant that has only 13 tables and they recently have won many awards for Dishes but also outstanding service . We ordered the Rabbit and the Bev steak which was phenomenal and you can’t go wrong with the caramel dessert. It was like a flan, but it was delicious. Our server was incredibly engaging , knowledgeable about the menu ,kind and added to the experience.

Excellent - lovely atmosphere, great quick service and delicious food. We went in for a lunch for two - the place was beautifully decorated and looked a real treat. I ordered steak frites and it was honestly one of the loveliest steaks I have eaten in a while. My friend had moules frites. It arrived super fast but was so good. Lovely wine too. Price was fair and offered good value.
