    I have no idea why the ratings for this place are so high. The service, the food and the ambiance were all highly disappointing. Out of five dishes only one met expectations. If you’re looking for a good dinner, go elsewhere.

    We had the most wonderful experience. Our waiter, Carlos, was exceptional! He made us feel so welcomed and special. He was informative and very professional while being warm and charming. I had the Red Deer Saddle and it was to perfection. Among us we had chicken Caesar salad, scallops and roast cod. All were perfectly prepared and presented. We truly enjoyed the restaurant atmosphere, such comfortable seats.

    Food was generally good, the pigeon breast starter was rather dry and disappointing, given that it was expensive at £15, but the roasted cod was excellent and the dessert was nice too. Good selection of decent wines by the glass, which is very welcome when a bottle is just too much. Service was patchy with waiters coming to our table on 2 occasions with items we hadn't ordered! Ambience was excellent, with large windows and a great view across to the Old Town. Not the greatest value, the starters in particular were overpriced.
