“This is the second time we've booked for a family birthday. The food is always 10/10, the restaurant staff are so lovely, and customer service faultless. I have recommended you to family and friends on more than one occasion. Thankyou so much.”

“Had a wonderful time dining here recently. Everything from the presentation to the flavours was spot on. I was particularly impressed by the mussels in the risotto, which were cooked perfectly. The attention to detail really stood out, especially the delicate way the fresh herbs were placed on top of each dish. It made for such a lovely meal. Will definitely be back again soon. Highly recommended for anyone in Plymouth looking for a great bite.”

“This place is phenomenal. The service we had was exceptional, great host and waitresses, really polite and friendly. The portions were large and fairly priced for what we received. The quality of the food was exceptional and the flavours balanced to a perfection. A reservation is recommended (we didn't have one and the place was quite busy). The prices were fair (2 drinks, 2 starters and 2 mains with a 10% cost us £60). Will be coming back.”
