Coupled with a major renovation to the bar and dining area in late 2017, this brought about the decision of re-naming.

Absolutely amazing from start to finish. Fillet Steak was cooked to medium rare perfection and the choice of sides and ability to mix it up worked well. My companions sampled the full range of steaks and the swordfish special and all devoured their meals. Sticky...More
