"Great restaurant, fantastic food, the best food for miles, we come here so often and its always incredible food. Ignore "Katy & Dan's" bad/bullying reviews as the restaurant thankfully has nothing to do with their 2 year old child. I personally hate being bothered by kids at nice restaurants, so i'm glad that the restaurant didn't pander to these type of customers. The service is great, the setting is wonderful, the place just brilliant."
