"Booked through OpenTable and all confirmed. Also left messages on restaurant answering machine. Travelled specially to restaurant only to find it closed with no explanation. Even opening times on door stated it should have been open. No response from restaurant to subsequent messages left. Would definitely not recommend and would not use OpenTable again unless able to confirm direct with the restaurant which defeats the whole object of OpenTable a very disappointing experience!"

wow, a place that seemed nice at a glance but turned out to be far from that.

The only thing stopping me from giving me this place a 4 star is that we got stuck with a grouchy waitress.

We've never been disappointed here, on the occasions when we could get in at allIt's in the GFG, and you can taste why.

The food was outstanding and the restaurant was really nice but unfortunately the service needs to be addressed, Perhaps a bit of 5 star training to match the food would make this place the experience it deserves. View menu

Lovely food, good portion sizes, nice wine list. Service good. Lacked a little ambience and was quite quiet, even on a Saturday night, which was a shame as everything else was excellent. Staff dealt very well with some very awkward diners on the table near us. Very professional.

Over priced menu. Nice food but expensive and the atmosphere was a bit quiet and sterile. True, it was a little out of season. Service was OK but we had to ask for a few things and a change of table. They were accommodating but at these prices I expect not to have to pick up on these details.

The meal was exceptional, but the experience was let down by our table not being ready on time, due to private party in the bar downstairs we went for a walk for 15 minutes, when we returned table was still not ready. Staff eventually got us seated and we commenced our starters 55 minutes after our original time of arrival. View menu

The restaurant cancelled our booking on the day we we were due to go because of unforseen circumstances. We were on holiday and this was supposed to be a special evening, we were so looking forward to going. Due to it being such short notice we were unable to book somewhere else, we were hugely disappointed not impressed with being let down at the last minute.

We enjoyed a great 'cabaret ' in the form of a grandstand view of practice night at the local lifeboat station. Kept everybody (with a window seat) enthralled. The fixed price menu is good value, the fish fresh, the wine reasonably priced and the staff attentive without being too 'there ' on what was a very quiet Wednesday evening. Just right for what we wanted.
