Great food and wine similar in style to Ballymaloe, Decor has improved remarkably since initially opened. Deserves to do well but needs marketing help name is hard to remember for me anyway. The room was on the very chilly side especially since you are sitting but people should come for food and a wine if know needs a outgoing chatty waitress none there when we went on a week date due small number of bookings. Well done should nearly be on a foodie trip. Keep at it

Even though service was a little slow all the staff including the chef himself were very friendly and couldn’t do enough for us. I found it a little bright for my taste (I wear glasses), but it was a very relaxed and enjoyable experience. We are looking forward to our next visit. ☺️ We have been telling all our friends and family and they all want to visit.

A wonderful evening from start to finish. Lovely meeting Stan and Tomas two very pleasant gentlemen that are passionate about their professions, bringing their love and expertise of all things foodie related to the table for us to enjoy. Our waiter for the night was excellent very knowledgeable taking the time to discuss our choices along with excellent well timed service.

Resturant feels to much like a family house. External & Internal decor needs to change for venue to less domestic. Chef Tomas really engaging & professional.

Delightful evening . Food was super . Chef was excellent but he spent too much time in the dining room - lovely man but guests don’t like so many interruptions of their meal to converse with the chef . Looking forward to going back & have already highly recommended to friends

True french “haute cuisine” made by the French chef. It was a real treat! unusual and delicious menu. Not to be missed. I appreciated the request for feedback from the chef. I would have preferred it at the end of the meal but was delighted to share it. The wine selection appears very wide but a tad expensive.
