The ambience was not good. If I looked one way I could only see dirty looking windows and if I looked the other way I could only see the serving hatch as we were seated too close to that. It was supposed to be a special birthday meal for me and my friends but I didn't enjoy it. Overall, I think the restaurant looks very tired and the food is not great value.

Booked this for an evening meal for 4, to celebrate a graduation in the family. On arrival, we were told they had run out of fillet steak (two of us wanted this and have had it before in a Birmingham Café Rouge - superb usually). Disappointing but we got over that! We showed a 40% off main courses voucher to the waiter and he said that was fine and would be applied to the bill. The bill was c£180 and it wasn't until I arrived home next day, I realised the 40% had not been applied at all. Disappointing and probably my fault for checking at the time but the restaurant was full - appreciate it was a busy time - and I had to go to the counter to pay as staff were busy.

Sadly quite disappointing. We booked here for our work Christmas meal, only a small party and even pre-ordered hoping it would make it alot easier. There was confusion where we were sitting so we had to change tables but only after we saw our name tags on another table not by the staff. We waited 25 mins to be asked for drinks and an hour for the starters which were only for 2 of the party anyway. This meant for most of us we waited an hour and 20 mins before our main dinner arrived. We entertained ourselves as we after the first order of drinks came we never saw any member of staff til the starters. There were 2 larger tables, 1 not pre ordered, who received their whole meal before we had our deserts who seemed to have staff quite attentive to them which made us feel even worse. The food was delicious and I would give it 5/5 but for your whole party to feel starving and alittle deflated made our work evening out quite miserable. When we asked member of staff how long til our mains, we just replied with they're very busy and that was it. We felt like we were getting told off and felt uncomfortable to approach them again. Even when paying at the end we waited 15 minutes as they kept rushing in and out to clear just 2 tables that were left upstairs, no other customers, we just felt abandoned the entire time. I even got marched back into the restaurant after being told we had not paid enough. To clear we did, we just left a smaller tip then what was on our reciept but the embarrassment was humiliating.
