"Absolutely top notch! I visited with friends under their recommendation. I was thinking of having a pizza, but this restaurant does not seem to do pizza. However, thoughts of pizza were soon forgotten when I ordered a pasta dish off the menu. The food is fantastic. The atmosphere is great. And I really like the fact they don't rush you. We were the last people in the restaurant, and they were not in a hurry for us to leave. If you want to eat in a classy place and have wonderful food and atmosphere, this may well be the place for you. I would say, make sure you book beforehand!"

"Anyone who thinks this is a good Sunday lunch must be a non cook as at £140 for a table of 4 with drinks) was so inferior to my wife's cooking the chef should be embarrassed to serve it. The beef was tough, the roast potatoes tasted like the frozen variety and not proper gravy. Worst of all the vegetables were all served in one bowl between four people so it was impossible to be selective as you could serve up soggy cauliflower cheese which carrots, peas etc. in one scoop. When we complained about the vegetables the chef must have taken exception as they brought out a huge bowl carrots. I did not want to leave a review but as I wrote to Leicester's and received no reply I thought others needed to aware before booking."

"Service was great friendly and helpful. Also swiftly replaced a dirty glass But the food was disappointment, the beef being filled with carrot which wasn't even mentioned in the description. Parking: Small car park at rear, but I've visited several times and never managed to get a space there Price per person: £10–20 Parking space: Difficult to find parking Parking options Free parking lot"

"The service tonight was awful. On arrival, we got put in the restaurant where we felt like nothing but an inconvenience. We got asked if we wanted more drinks, twice during the 3 and a half hours we were there. Our food order was taken, none of our food came out the same time. The tapas dishes took 40 minutes to come, nothing was brought out together. The steak orders weren’t correct. We paid the bill and asked to speak to a manager. The manager may as well have said he couldn’t care. I was palmed off and told to “come back, we will make it up to you”. I personally will not be coming back. Stewart, who was the “manager” on shift had awful attitude and was extremely rude because I am young. He said “do you not understand how tapas works” when I told him that the dishes took 40 minutes to come out. We had to ask for a side of chips that we ordered which didn’t come out until an hour after the food started coming out. Overall, it was poor service and I will not be returning."
