Really excellent food, great service, but mains portions are very small. The soup was the highlight of the starters, absolutely delicious, I cant wait to go back to order. I ordered badly as I was tempted by one of the 'bar bites' - the pickled vegetables - which were marinated in turmeric, I'm afraid I got no taste of that marination at all, so it was disappointing for me. The others both had the salmon and declared same delicious also. Mains were a bit of a shock size wise, beautifully presented but really small portions - I went for the Boxty, and while everything on my plate was fantastic I really considered it a starter portion. We had ordered only 2 sides between 4, and as the plates arrived we all agreed we had under ordered - we asked how long some more would take, but because same are prepared to order we were too late to order more - I strongly recommend a minimum of 1 side per person. The beef, cows cheek, was amazing, so tender and tasty. The Hake was replaced by Cod at our visit, again declared perfect but small portion. Desserts are simply perfect - no other word for them. We tried all 3 - the chocolate pot was just amazing, hot from the oven with melted chocolate inside, hazelnuts and ice cream on top, I'd go back for that alone. The Lemon posset topped with berries and what we thought was a liquor simply fab, and the Rhubarb dessert well, just wow, we left no trace of any. The food here is so very, very good, complimented by excellent service which was never intrusive. A great night, and we will certainly be returning.
