Lovely restaurant with good Food. We are in the bar as the restaurant wasn’t open. Great food but a bit chilly by the double doors that constantly open to let the smokers/vapours in/out

We had looked at the restaurant online and chosen what to order from the menu. On arrival we were told there was only 1 sirloin steak. When we came to order 2 opted for lamb loin only to be told there was only one of them too. My friend ordered fish and was horrified to be served it in a sauce full of capers. We were told this was normal for sauce vierge. Google didn’t mention capers as being part the sauce. When I ordered my dessert I was advised there weren’t any brownies left. Charming waitress did all she could but very disappointing for our special Christmas night out.
