The service - great!
The oysters - great!
The carrots - great!
The beetroot - great!
The baked potato - great!
The steak - yeah, not so great.
For a steakhouse, I expected the steak to be the highlight, but unfortunately, it was the only thing that disappointed. Thank goodness for the sauces they were the only thing giving that chewy piece of beef any flavor.

The food was excellent and very tasty. The only reason I didn’t give a five-star rating was the service.
