"High expectations. Great disappointment. Nice ambience and service was fine. But food very second rate and not particularly cheap. Fish was very wet and overcooked and full of bones. Risotto had a very strange taste to it. We tried 3 different deserts and none matched the description eg tarte tatin was actually a poached apple. All where disappointing. We would have complained if we weren't on route to the theatre. If food quality is important to you I would avoid Purchases. Walkability: 5mins from Cathedral in pedestrian area Food drinks: Fish was very wet and overcooked and full of bones. Risotto had a very strange taste to it. We tried 3 different deserts and none matched the description eg tarte tatin was actually a poached apple. All where disappointing. White house wine was Ok"
