Apart from a shaky start with our booking not acknowledged by Estivo, we had a lovely evening. I booked via Open Table, arrived at the restaurant, to a greeting that we did not have a booking. Fortunately we were offered a table and the dinner proceeded. My faith in using Open Table has been reduced. I am not sure who was at fault. The dinner was lovely and the staff were very good. A lovely evening was enjoyed.

Attentive service where they made up a beautiful soup that wasn't on the menu that was really delicious and appreciated. It was our daughter's 16th birthday celebration and brought out desert with a candle on it. A really enjoyable night and would recommend this restaurant as a must attend.

Staff were friendly but no where to be seen. They were there to perform standard service - take your order, ask how your food was, clear table. But when you needed the wine list, bill or anything extra, no one was standing nearby for at least 2-3 mins. The food was not bad and atmosphere was nice casual dining. May consider coming back after trying the other restaurants in the area.

Serving size could be increased - fish - a little but extras are generous. Friendly staff worked efficiently. Standard and presentation are very high so this is a niche restaurant
