17/06/2025: I thought it would be a lot better. I'm a bit sad because I was looking forward to eating here for a long time. The staff was friendly, I was a walk-in party of 2. Got sitted right away (the place was pretty much empty). Atmosphere was uncomfortable, it was a bit dark and the choice of music was weird, plus gets super loud when other tables start moving chairs. Ordered some house wine and a mocktail. Wine was nice, good quality. Mocktail a bit too sweet but tasted ok. Complimentary bread was probably the best of all the food I had, smoked butter was ok. For starters we ordered Pork belly and Caesar salad. Pork was nice, for me it was missing some balsamic reduction or something citrusy as there was too many sweet flavours, perhaps something could be improved in the celeriac puree to balance the dish. They tried with the mustard slaw but it was still sweet. Caesar salad dressing was ok. Chicken croquette was like a Brazilian cochina but chicken needed more seasoning. Overall starters were ok. For the mains we had Irish Pork and Rump steak. The steak was really delicious but the peppercorn sauce was a let down, not enough cream and too overpowering flavor of pepper, didn't enhanced the flavor of the meat but the opposite so didn't use it. Potato fondant was really good. Roasted potatoes were on the raw side which was very unpleasant and lacked salt, also didn't eat. Everything else in the dish was meh. Irish pork also not great, jus was like a stroke of paint in the plate really did nothing for the pork, carrot puré bland, carrots itself were good. Wouldn't order this dish again. And then finally came the dessert and well.. what a disappointment. So bad I spat it out. Chocolate fondant, the icecream was bland and crystalized, it was like eating ice shavings, the anglaise sauce bland and blackberry well kinda unpleasant to eat because of the seeds, plus plating not great. Cheesecake tasted like quark, no sugar at all, popcorn was saggy and the combination of dark chocolate sauce at the bottom with the caramel sauce on top and some pear slices made little sense in that dish. Overall the dessert was very poor and probably the reason why I wouldn't come back, since it sealed the experience as utterly disappointing. I could maybe come back if they improve the menu, but for the money I rather go to other places.
09/06/2025: I had the pleasure of dining here three times for separate events. All the staff is so professional, smart and kind. The food was delicious but honestly the butter they serve with the bread at the beginning is just divine.
Lovely atmosphere and ideal for a nice evening dinner. Will definitely be back again!
