Lovely, sunny outdoor area. But after sun went down, we went inside and felt the atmosphere was quite cold. We enjoyed the meals, especially the ribs. Really enjoyed the friendly service from the young Irish lass

Nice location and layout badly let down by sub-standard customer service and an extremely arrogant waiter. I ordered a Rekorderlig (fabulous) and my daughter ordered dessert. (cheesecake – v delicious!) When my daughter’s dessert arrived, I decided to order soup, which arrived with toast that was burnt and badly blackened by the grill on both sides. The waiter seemed to think this was perfectly fine to serve me, (even though the taste was so charcoaly I couldn’t eat it let alone enjoy it), and that I should pay full price for the privelege. I was then blamed for not complaining sooner (!) Even though they were so busy it was hard to get anyone’s attention in the first place! Customers should not expect to be treated this way and I had expected a far better standard of service from a place of this caliber. Sadly, his lack of customer service skills ruined what had otherwise been a pleasant night.

Walked in off the street on a Monday night. I wanted nice Rib racks. The menu stated racks of baby back ribs. What came to the table was 3 edible ribs and 2 large fatty ‘ends’ of rib racks. If a chef has no pride in sending out quality rib racks, forget the rest of the menu. I won’t be back.
