A little friendly place that doesn't try too hard, doesn't crowd in the tables and serves extremely high end food. You wouldn't think anything of the facade, but you will be welcomed with open arms and treated to some amazing food & wine - you must try the varying desert platter! More

A Warm welcome with complimentary olives really sets the mood. The choices on the main menu were varied and the addition of the chef's specials really spoilt us for choice. The wild mushroom risotto with Shaved parmesan was spectacular with the home made bread rolls. Roast fillet of outdoor reared pork in a mushroom and garlic cream sauce for mains... More

We mentioned that one of us was vegan when we booked, and arrived to a variety of menus - including a vegan one which was so enticing that a number of us chose from it. Service was wonderful; food excellent; table square rather than oblong - brilliant for a party of 7. Highly recommended! More
