> Had a girls dinner here, there was lots of nice options on the menu which was ideal. We got the Kingfish Crudo which was nice but I wouldn’t hurry back for it, a little on the sour side. I also really did not enjoy the dumplings, the chorizo and prawn flavour really didn’t work well in my opinion, it was very fishy flavour which those who tried it agreed. The duck fat potatoes were nice but a little on the dry side. The waitress and staff were nice I really liked the atmosphere and the vibe of the place. I would definitely come back for a drink and probably try something else but I wouldn’t or, Barbera Forster (Barb), 10 months ago
> Had a lovely dinner here on a Saturday evening. Earlier table at 5 before a show. From the moment we arrived the service was fantastic, friendly but relaxed and just the right amount of attentive. Great drinks list. We had the market fish of the day which was Kingfish and the chicken salad with sides of cauliflower and fries. All were delicious and generous portions, just the right amount. Cosy with the fire on in the restaurant, great spot, highly recommend., lisa lodge, 5 months ago
> Came here for cocktails only so can't comment on the food. The cocktails list has the usual classics but also some interesting combinations. All cocktails are song titles which is quite fun. Order is via QR code at the table but staff is also avaliable. Outside is great for people watching along the river and inside is very pretty., Annette, 8 months ago
