While I have always loved the really beautiful ever -changing seasonal surroundings and the ambience, food and service continue to be excellent. Price is fair and selection of dishes always interesting: imaginative and beautifully presented with high quality ingredients. Portions are perfect. So unsurprisingly we keep coming back. Thank you all.
