What an absolutely stunning little gem of a restaurant! The staff were very attentive, the food was amazing, and the drinks and cocktails were top end. We had the cod with pearl barley and cavolo nero, followed by a tiramisu martini and a Baileys latte for dessert. The restaurant was busy, but the staff and kitchen worked hard to produce a wonderful meal. We cannot fault a thing. Thank you so much for a lovely evening xx

Everything was perfect. The food was excellent. A special mention goes to the cauliflower dish. Sadly, restaurants still often struggle to make tasty vegetarian food, but this one was a standout. I really ought to introduce this dish to restaurants back in my home country. The whisky sauce served with the haggis was incredible! The service was also excellent, right up until the very end. Our server was fantastic, but the moment we paid the bill, the service simply stopped. The server wouldn't even look our way, offered a vague "thanks," and practically ran off. My friend and I were left there, looking at each other in confusion. It wouldn't have taken much for the server to make eye contact one last time, thank us for the evening, and wish us a good night. Also, a coat rack would be a good addition upstairs. Otherwise full marks!
