"Having read the many positive reviews about this restaurant, my family and I decided to give it a go and we booked a table.This is the first time that I have ever wrote a review, but in this instance I felt I needed to. It was VERY disappointing. If you’re considering booking this restaurant as a large group, think again.Our experience from the Sunday lunch was that, the restaurant is missing a restaurant manager, and there are way too many staff not being coordinated. We had a booking if 16 people, our starters came out without an issue. The main course then came out. I would have given the food the thumbs up only that most of our dishes were cold. 2 of us had to send back the lamb to get reheated, the roast potatoes were as black as mountain turf!The sides came out 15 to 20mins after the main course was tabled. Most of us had finished our main course before receiving the sides. It was laughable...the last man to finish his dinner had 6 sides of all Veg. We then complained in the hope that the service in the desserts would be a bit more streamlined, but again the deserts came out to some and not to others. I never actually received my desert in the end so I had to ask them to take it off the bill. Then we ordered teas/coffees...and the same happened again. Some didn’t receive coffees and had to prompted 15minutes after everyone received theirs and then others received coffee that was cold and had to be reheated. The service overall was an absolute sham...the food, had it been received in full and warm, would have been ok, but again the kitchen service let it down. The deserts tasted good, but again the fact that a lot of us had to prompt the staff for missing dishes let everyone down. I sincerely want to give this restaurant a positive review, as it is a lovely setting, but the service was atrocious. It’s fine to have staff that are still at school, but you could atleast employ a manager and a chef to run the show. I doubt I’ll be back."
