"Honestly, I went here ready to love the restaurant, but feel maybe it's taking things a little bit for granted. Had multiple dishes. Fussiloni. Wow well I am guessing boiled mince, but not an expert about why meat tasted the way it did, but I associated meat with mass produced methods of canteen food. Specials pasta was alright, think if not pasta itself being Al dente would definitely say most of people can prepare the dish at home without much effort. Wagyu whilst granted I never ate wagyu before was rubbery. Maybe that's how it suppose to be but I really had a bite and didn't want more. Tiramisu was Limoncello based , soft. Personally didn't like it, but I can see other people enjoying it. Overall during meal I was questioning my meat eating morals :D. Service was lovely. Decor was nice. Prices were high"

"Went yesterday with a couple of friends expecting a wonderful lunch and pleasant atmosphere, as was the case on numerous previous occasions, only to be greeted with an empty restaurant (red flag 1 . We walked up to the bar to ask if they were open and were told yes, and to go sit wherever, menus are on the left, come order and pay at the bar because there is no table service as it 's apparently 'fully booked ' even though it was empty save for one other table (red flag 2 . We chose a table (which looked like it hadn 't been wiped down properly red flag 3 , looked through the menus and went to order I wanted the mixed meat Sunday roast (beef, pork, chicken and lamb only to be told it comes up as 'Three meat roast ' on the till and the price was different from the menu (red flag 4 , when I queried why that was the case the woman serving us went to the kitchen to 'double check ' only to come out again and say the till is programmed differently (red flag 5 . Person serving us obviously did not know how to operate till, did not know how to talk to customers and was very short with us despite having an empty restaurant (red flag 6 . My friend ordered food and a cup of tea which came up on the receipt as 'flat white ' (red flag 7 . Went back to our table to wait for food, which arrived relatively quickly but the meat was LUKEWARM, the potatoes were UNDERCOOKED and portion sizes had massively reduced, and when friend queried why the tea hadn 't arrived yet halfway through the meal was told they were just 'starting up the machine ' (to boil water for tea??? . We ate what we could and left the rest thinking we 'd get food poisoning, and left quickly friend never received that tea she paid for. Found out later that the restaurant is now under new management as the original owners had closed it down in May due to rising costs, and new owners clearly have no hospitality experience and are living off of the restaurant 's previous excellent reputation I doubt this place will survive much longer considering how awful the food and experience are!"

"The food served don’t deserve 2 Michelin stars, I was so excited to be dining here for lunch. After dining at many one star restaurants my imagination was going wild at what we’d be served. The hors d’ oeuvres were underwhelming, one was a jelly sweet smothered in sugar! The bread was cold and was not fresh at all. The fish course was served on some sort of crust, this tasted stale. The fish itself did not of the texture of fish and was tasteless. As the dishes were brought out the more disappointed we became. Not one dish had a flavour explosion or brought any happiness. Not one dish seemed complete and everyone lacked something. As for the candy floss dessert, i tried, it failed not worth the calories. We paid the £440 bill for 2 and left speechless and hungry. Giving this restaurant 2 Michelin stars is a license to print money. If you’d like a Michelin experience half the price try Adams, Upstairs or even Simpsons in the midlands."
