He knew little about the wine list but was happy for hubby to try a mouthful of a rather lovely Bulgarian Pinot noir, before ordering a bottle. The food was all delicious. Highlights included the Avocado and crab gazpacho (ikr , the burrito and a rather wonderful Pappardelle with chilli, crab and squid. So why only 4*? The restaurant isn’t cheap, it wouldn’t be out of place in the west end and so, if you’re serving a cheese plate you really need to know the cheese you’re serving. The chef was dragged over but couldn’t help (something about a run of cheese at lunchtime and a need to get more but they weren’t all the same "

Quiet only due to everyone away for spring break. Excellent service standard as usual.

Very friendly service from a young and eager staff. Menu is interesting but could do with a couple more mains.

Lovely food in a great setting. The staff made our anniversary lunch one to remember and the joy on my car-loving husband's face was priceless. Thank you!

The Engine Room had closed on July 21st and nobody had reached out to us. In fact, OpenTable had asked us to confirm our reservation for July 27th, even though the restaurant was already closed.

Fabulous environment with indoor and outdoor seating and lots of attention to detail in the decor. Food was excellent in presentation and taste. Pizza was enormous and delicious. Plenty of choice for meat, fish and vegetarian eaters no vegans in our party so not sure how it stacked up here, but there were vegan choices. Not a large menu but plenty to choose from and all 6 in our group (mixed vegetarian and meat eaters enjoyed the meal. Service was excellent and restaurant appeared to be well staffed. We will return :

I had a wonderful birthday lunch with my son at this restaurant. I have to mention that the service was a bit slow as we waited 20 minutes before we were even able to get a drink or appetizers. However, the rest of the meal and service were satisfactory. The building itself was beautiful and it was clear that no expense was spared. The patio dining area was lovely, with a retractable cover in case it got too hot. The prices were reasonable, especially since we went on a Friday and got to enjoy the set price lunch menu. My son really enjoyed his cocktail, although I can't remember the name. It had a tequila and chile flavor profile. The restaurant was busy and had a great atmosphere overall.
