Sometimes, when you come across an excellent restaurant, you just have to go back again in under a week.
Because we were so impressed with this place last Saturday night - especially the service - we went back for Bill's birthday celebration on Friday night. The woman who was so outstanding last week wasn't there last night, and the service was all right, but not outstanding. On delivering the last dishes to the table, I asked for another 2 glasses of wine for Jane and me. The glasses did not arrive. Eventually after about 15 minutes when I realised the server was not returning I stuck my hand in the air. When it wasn't noticed, I started waving it all around. The wine arrived with an apology.
I chose the fish (Orange Roughy was the fish de jour again) and chips. I asked for mine to be pan-fried rather than battered.
To be honest, I expected that pan fried fish would have a slight singe or crust on the outside. The fish was great, but it seemed as if it had been poached or steamed rather than pan fried. The salad was great (no cucumber!) and the "chips" were fabulous.
Everyone around the table found their meals delicious.
Service: 4/5 Food: 5/5 Ambience: 2.5/5 Total 11.5/15
