"After our previous wonderful experiences, I knew it was the right decision to book in for a date night with my partner leading up to valentines. The owners recognised us from our previous visits and were greeted at the door some warmly and welcoming. We were lead to a table of two surrounded by beautiful and unique decor and even though the venue was popular, it still felt intimate and relaxing. The wine menu was full of choice and well thought out, with a great choice of local produce included. After some great recommendations from our server, we opted for a gorgeous bottle of rosé which was soft, subtle and complimented the meal throughout. My starter was the Bresaola, which was gorgeously presented and tasted phenomenal the flavours of the plate really complimented each other and exuded luxury. We both opted for steak for main (after trying to decide between that and the lamb shank shepherds pie! WOW! After curing my excitement at the sight of the most beautiful steak, I eagerly tucked in and was met with one of the best steaks I have genuinely eaten in my life. The steak was perfectly cooked and genuinely melted like butter in my mouth. The Smoked mash, leeks, bacon chestnut mushrooms red wine jus was a beautiful side piece to the dish and was so moreish it was pure bliss. The truffle Parmesan frites are also an absolute MUST just SOOOO good!! We could see that every table of guests around us were being treated first class nothing was too much for the staff and they conversed with everyone like we were friends/family, which is just such a rare and pleasant experience that you can only find at gems such as this. Once again, thank you for making us feel like VIPs on nights that mean so much to us. We will definitely be returning again, in fact we booked another table while we were there to return for their 8 course Irish Tasting menu! (Complete with drink pairings, of course!"
