Had drinks, cocktails and food here. All were absolutely fabulous. My wife raved about her seafood linguine and struggled to finish it as it had so much seafood. I had the baked Hake which was divine. Very busy for an early Sunday evening but staff were brilliant. Wouldn't hesitate to return or recommend this establishment. Have to add that the prices pretty reasonable as well.
