Beautiful food. Pasta Alfredo amazing as always and Cajun beef to die for. Myself and my partner can’t fault this place for its service or its food. Will be back for definite.

Good food excellent staff and well priced. Had a very pleasant night out in this restaurant with a good atmosphere.

This is a difficult restaurant to review - service was very friendly (although opening a bottle of wine with a cork seemed to be a new experience for the waiter!) and the portions were huge - too large. The menu also reflected the meal size - lots of choice, probably too much. The food was OK, not outstanding and the combination of flavours and food items was a little bizarre. This is probably the closest I have been to a 'Marmite' restaurant - some will love it, some won't - I just haven't been able to decide yet

We booked the function room (The Loft) for a 40th birthday and it could not have been better! The food was delicious and the room was fantastic- lots of space for people and for the children to play, but what really made it was the staff. They were so helpful and attentive- helped with decorations as well as organisation. They were also amazing with the kids. They could not do enough. I would recommend to everyone and anyone looking for a function room in the area. We will definitely be back and they really did make our occasion extra special.

First time trying this place and it was awful, service was terrible took ages too deliver food and when the food did come they gave us the wrong pizzas, the chips were not even cooked properly and the cans were warm as anything, they then charged us too get the pizzas we actually wanted so prices were rediculous, and when they ended up bringing the pizzas we wanted they were burnt as crisp, honestly so disappointing with this as I’ve heard so many people say it’s supposed too be really nice, it’s fair too say I will not be eating from there ever again.

Booked my daughters 18th birthday party here. I can't recommend this venue highly enough. From start to finish the staff were absolutely amazing, nothing was too much trouble. The buffet was delicious and plentiful, they even provided pizza boxes filled with leftovers for us to take home. Fantastic evening all round. The only minor criticism is the room was a bit warm.

Thursday lunch with the girls was lovely. Got there just after opening and seated near the window. The room soon filled up. Service was brilliant and attentive. Food was amazing 3 course for £15, Inc minute steak, this was the size of a normal steak and was cooked to perfection. Definitely go again. Lots of choice on menu and special menus

Fantastic meal, let us come in just before last orders even though we were the only customers (others like Fabios don’t do this). Excellent food and excellent service, and good value - thank you

Absolutely fantastic.My husband and best friend held me a surprise baby shower in the function room upstairs. The room was lovely, the food was amazing! We had an large buffet which was beautifully cooked, plenty of choice and even offered containers for us to pack up anything left that we wanted to take away. The staff were truly outstanding. Peter, I believe the gentle man was called, what a guy! He was the life and soul, he couldn't do enough for us. Thank you all ?

Having eaten at restaurants on five continents this one is in my top three of all time Service was immaculate as soon as we entered, the food was presented beautifully and tasted even better than it looked and the waitress and all staff were friendly , polite, professional but with a great deal of humour. Simply fantastic

We had a family meal today celebrating my grandson's birthday. The food was lovely and the staff were excellent. The atmosphere was relaxed and family friendly, thanks to the lovely staff who looked after us.
