Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Visited this restaurant for my birthday, everything was delicious, but the fillet steak was definitely a crowd favourite, cooked to the perfection and just melting in your mouth.. Our server Manuel was very attentive and made sure to make our evening extra special when he...heard it was my birthday. Would recommend this place if you're looking for quality food and good service! Thank you to the staff for a great evening 😊More

Booked for the Sunday roast. The restaurant was quiet at our 4pm sitting and the live music had just finished which was a tad disappointing. The restaurant lacked a little ambiance. The food was excellent as always. However, it might be helpful to know that...the vegetarian dishes have to be ordered in advance. How would one know this if the restaurant do not advise you at the time of the booking! My wife’s only option was to have vegetables as the Sunday menu is reduced in the number of dishes. Our server Kito was helpful and attentive. We will definitely return.More

You need to book ahead to get a table here, which indicates how good it is. If you can reserve a table outside, that’s a bonus. We let them know it was our anniversary and they really looked after us. Great table decorated, glass of...bubbly, flower and free ice cream. We had seared queen scallops on belly pork to start which was delicious. Then onto mains of fillet steak, which had a real char grilled flavour, perfectly cooked. The menu has a wide & varied selection of dishes to choose from. The staff and atmosphere of the restaurant was excellent. The house red wine was more than acceptable. The best meal we had all week. I would highly recommend this restaurant.More

Visited here tonight after reading several good reviews and was not disappointed. We booked a table for 21:15 however turned up a hour early and was able to be seated. Starters where huge and delicious, we ordered the scallops & salmon fish cakes and for...main the fillet steak all was amazingly cooked to perfection and we all went home stuffed! We was served by Manuel & Charley who were cheerful and happy to accommodate anything - it was very busy so they were clearly rushed off their feet but the service didn’t slip one bit. Highly recommend a visit!More
