06/11/2024: Great place to have a meal and you get plenty on your plate

25/10/2024: Had dinner here with family recently. Going to start at the beginning. Pulled up outside and the music was blaring. Sounded like a disco. In we went and were assaulted by the decor and the tacky looking cocktail bar. I was very unsure. We were seated and as I looked around, I realised that the place looks awful but is spotless. And I mean spotless. The food was good. Simple and straight forward but good, fresh, well cooked food. I wouldn't be going here for a fancy dinner but it's perfect for a bite. It wasn't particularly busy while we were there and there were only 2 people working and they seemed to be under pressure so the service wasn't fantastic. However, the staff were very friendly and they were helpful once we called them over. Long story short, I would eat here again and I was pleasantly surprised despite the offputting first impression.
