    Lovely greeting on arrival to the restaurant . Our order was taken by Dagmar, she is so helpful, cheery and couldn’t do enough to make our evening special. We ordered the steak special that evening, mine was cooked medium and my wife’s was medium rare. They were cooked to perfection with a side of mash , chips , onion rings and side salad. It comes with a bottle of Red, white or bubbles. Oh, I had the calamari starter. Also cooked to perfection, not chewy but tender. Just right. My wife’s pâté started was with forcacia, pesto and a delicious chutney. Steaks are not something we usually order but the whole deal was great value and delicious 10/10
