"If I could write a review without giving this restaurant a star rating I would! I am writing this after visiting with my partner last night-Valentines Day which also happens to be my birthday. On arrival I was confronted by a less than enthusiastic host who suggested we sit in a dark corner of the restaurant. Ok, romantic perhaps. Not at all. We were given menus and left momentarily before we made our drinks order. I ordered a banana pecan rum which I actually pointed to within the menu for clarity purposes but I got the non alcoholic version! After this we waited over 10 minutes for someone to take our food order even though it was empty my partner actually got up to go and order from the bar, as she did this a waiter rushed over. He then asked if the menu had been explained to us, again perplexed I thought oh perhaps there was a special however it was to clarify that half the menu was no longer available (this was 8pm on Valentine 's Day). No Mac n Cheese, no this no that and this is after being in the restaurant for at least 30 minutes. Unacceptable. We ordered and waited what seemed a lifetime (over 20 minutes) for our food. When the waiter brought out the 12 wings my partner ordered he stated they only had 6 left so that 's what she got!! No apologies, nothing. So we waited all that time without being given the option to amend our order!!! Not even a complimentary cocktail or appetiser. Disgusting! The food was sub standard. My pasta dish was barely warm and stale tasting far too much Parmesan and if that was a 'spicy ' sauce I wouldn 't like to know what mild is as it was a very sickly cheesy tomato sauce. As we ate in this dark corner tortured by a very loud speaker billowing the sounds of a performer, we were joined by staff cleaning and polishing cutlery at a table beside us and what seemed to be the manager browsing Facebook. Not the romantic atmosphere I expected I felt like I was in a workplace canteen!! My experience ruined the end of my birthday!"

"visited the cellar door for our jubilee. the cellar door offers a vegan option for every cursor. they have another lunch and dinner menu. I asked in advance whether we had one of the lunchtime starters, one of the dinner menu starters, and the same for both main and dessert and they were very accommodating. no one wants to have the same as their partner for everyone. at the arrival they knew that we had pre-ordered that the brot came with oil instead of butter, which made us realize that they were well accommodated for us. the wee were clearly listed as vegan. they will change their menus monthly so that eating will be different, but I wanted to check every plate. curs on curs through yukon gold starter really delicious, the Avacado office and garlic and exalted were really well compressed watermelone starter it was interesting with regard to aromen, but it wasn't for me. replace the watermelon with carburized tomato slices or a carb and I think they are on a winner. I ate everything, but it was just not my cup tee. smoked oyster mushroom my man loved this, he tried every one and then worked together and it all worked nice brocolli sincean cake big baked on the cake, jersey kings, cooked to perfection. it only needed a sosse, as the filling was quite heavy, it needed a heavy of the art. ananas dessert perfect light dessert, aromen works brilliant. massive fan of limette sorbet earthberry chocolate espuma we didn't think that basilikum sorbet would work, but we were wrong. this was like a ratatouille moment of all the aromes that come together. a real experience in a court."
