This place looked super promising from the previous reviews, but MAN, did we have a bad meal here. The crabcake was inedibly fishy, the fish and chips were dry and tasted like old oil. In addition, the staff kept letting a cat inside and roam around which to me is totally unsanitary (and loud, b/c it was driving a dog at the bar nuts). Maybe they were just having a bad night, but I'd skip.

This is a beautiful venue with a lovely ambience. We have eaten here on previous occasions and really enjoyed the food. However, we found the food quite disappointing on our last visit. Many of the dishes on the main menu would be considered as complicated even in a Michelin star restaurant. Sadly, the over ambitious menu fails to deliver the desired quality of cuisine. I chose,
Sesame fried sea bream with chilli and coriander crab cake, tempura prawns, braised five spice red cabbage, and red Thai curry sauce. The Sea bream and red cabbage were deliciou, though an odd combination. However, the tempura prawns were tasteless and I suspect commercially produced. Unfortunately, the crab cake was soggy and bland with little evidence of the red Thai curry sauce. My companion chose the collar of pork which was apparently quite stringy. The portions were generous. We were all the wish that we had chosen more traditional pub food. A big criticism is that the brasserie only offer skinny fries with no option of triple cut chips.

Food was SO beautiful. Mouthwatering, tasty and just gorgeous! Highly recommend the maple BBQ belly pork starter, and the pan fried sirloin steak.
I’ve had many steaks over my years, but OH WOW! Nothing like this!
Staff, environment service, price, etc were all fantastic. Thank you to everyone who work there.
