"This was a difficult one to review. It is the most expensive restaurant we have eaten in and I have to admit to feeling like a fish out of water at times. I have gone for Very Good as it was certainly not Average, but...maybe somewhere in the middle. I wont go into the pricing as this has been covered in a previous review by Darren B and I have to say I also agree with everything else he has written. We were in a party of seven adults. Our initial waitress (although I think she was more than a waitress, I didn't get her name unfortunately) was lovely and very attentive. Drinks in the lounge and our order taken, we were shown into the dining room when our food was ready. Large jugs of iced water on the table, beautiful surroundings too. The starter of scallops black pudding was delicious although very small for the £9.95 charged. I ordered Brie Beetroot tart for my main meal, I was surprised when it arrived because it filled the entire plate! I could not possibly eat it all. My husbands meal however was more in keeping with a la carte, loin of lamb, a very small portion of lamb on top of a very small portion of mash. You definitely need to purchase the side of vegetables with most of the dishes or you will have finished eating within minutes. My sister had the Ravioli which she thoroughly enjoyed. My only disappointment with regard to taste was the Brûlée, the top of mine was so burned I actually thought I could smell smoke in the restaurant, then I realised it was the food in front of me. I could not eat the top at all, again it was a very small portion, half a tea cup, but I do understand that this style of eating means you are not full to the brim when you leave. I made no fuss about the dessert because our meal was paid for by an elderly relative so I did not feel it was appropriate. Two niggles about the service, when my meal was brought in by a waiter along with my sisters, he said Raviloi And my sister said That's mine he walked to the other end of our table with it. He then said Tart and I said Me he replied with.... Nothing personal and a smirk. I have a sense of humour, but good grief! That was not expected in the restaurant of this calibre. This same waiter, when my sister excused herself from the table because she had a coughing fit, stood in the hallway looking at her, mimicking her cough, this was not a young lad. In fact he was probably older than most of us. A little more training is needed there. Our waitress saw my sister in distress and quickly brought her some water. On the whole we all had very nice food, served in a beautiful hotel, but I have to say I would not visit again."
