"Loved my evening here. The service was superb and the food was among the best I’ve tasted. We tried the tasting menu which absolutely did not disappoint. Every course hit the spot for me bar 1 which was the fiancé’s fave (so absolutely this was down to personal taste). Tasting menu didn’t often feel like it was ‘trying’ to be clever. Not sure I can find the words to do the experience justice. But will try! Tasting menu felt like it had structure. Starting with an enticing cheese and pickle doughnut which was superb and then moving through a fish course which was light and well balanced and on to what felt like the main event in the beef with artichoke purée. For me the beef and artichoke was sublime. Dessert came in the form of a choux bun which was thoroughly enjoyable. The last dish rice pudding with cherry refreshed the palette and felt like it closed the meal perfectly. Also, the sourdough was excellent. Light and fluffy inside with, for me, the perfect chewy/crispy crust. I have a lot of respect for whoever baked that. Champagne Mojito also worth a mention. Loved this cocktail. Would definitely recommend. I only hope that everyone finds the right restaurant/experience for them. First time here but I feel like we picked the right night. Hope to try again sometime soon but may avoid the full tasting menu. As lovely as it was I feel like I could explode."
