“We booked a table through last minute for Valentine's Day and they really did not disappoint. From the very friendly welcome when we arrived (about 15 minutes late!), to the chocolates as we left the restaurant almost last - the service was fautless. The special was a four course meal and the food was fantastic. Our starters (Mushroom soup with Truffle oil/Samosa with Apple/Celery Raita) was just right portion wise and tasted good. Course 2 was a Champagne sorbet - fantastic for cleansing the palette again, very tasty. Our mains were really, really nice - Pollack (fish) with Pancetta and white beans / Chicken in Tangier sauce with Cous Cous. Portion sizes were good, food was hot and very well presented. Dessert did not dissappoint either with Strawberry Fool with homemade shortbread and Sticky Toffee Pudding with Butterscotch Sauce. We just about had the room. The whole set up was lovely - silver stars sprinkled on the table; a near perfect red rose in the vase; well lit so as to promote some intimacy without stumbling about in the dark and staff who thought carefully about when to interrupt, apologised for even the slightest delay and seemed happy to serve you - something that seems to be a bit of a premium these days! And at £25 per head with a glass of wine - this was definitely the way to do credit crunch Valentine's! We were sold and will definitely go back on a bog standard non Valentiney-type day!”
