Well propotioned portions and very well made course giving you a dining to remember. Staff polite and attentative. I thougt prices moderate (but I am Swedish and used to high prices) A perfect place to treat your son or doughter at university as it is relaxed yet refined.

Considering the experience I had tonight I'm surprised by the average rating this place has. The wait staff where not very knowledgeable about the menu and when I asked what the Diane sauce that was an extra option for the fillet steak (which is the most expensive of the mains) the waiters reply was that he had never tried it so he couldn't describe it. Also when ordering I made a point of asking specially about how they cooked the meat to understand if it was the usual UK style where mediumwell done and the waiter was very clear that a rare is a rare, so two of us ordered rare and the other ordered medium rare but fillets where delivered medium well and well done. The quality of beef was likely excellent and if it had been cooked right it probably would have been an excellent meal. When asked if the food was ok I made a very clear comment that it wasn't and gave constructive feedback which was just met with a sorry and no further comment. The starter was ok, I had a steak tartar and my colleagues had the scallops, the scallops where tiny and only two so not very good value but the tartar was good. Also the staff had no clue about the beer they were serving and when asking about the craft beers they started telling about the peroni on tap. I expect some sort of compensation for such a badly cooked steak that costs about 35 with sauce but none was given. The only reason it's not a one star is that everything else tasted good.
Excellent food, reasonably priced with friendly, efficient service
Nice food, wine and service. But the atmosphere and decor is lacking. Very noisy because of no soft furnishings - sounds like a canteen. Get some velvet curtains! The pics on the walls are poor abstracts and naff Aberdeen drawings. They need a good local artist to make the place more classy
Exceptional food in particularly small portions. Very nice restaurant with attentive and well-mannered staff. Waiting times for food were also good/reasonable. Food was high quality and cooked to perfection across every course. I didnt leave hungry but the portions were very small and may be considered a little pricey on that basis if the quality wasn't taken into consideration. Overall though, a great experience and I would definitely go back.
