Quality
This little restaurant felt like a real discovery. Not particularly hidden away but easily missed, this gem of a place really made our w/e away. I think it's a relatively new arrival to the area as our B&B hosts were unaware of it. Excellent food, locally sourced cooked simply. Spinach and ricotta pancakes were the best I've ever had (and there have been plenty) and the boy's sea food broth was apparently top notch. The wine was lovely, service relaxed but attentive and through all this we could see the chef at work (alone) and not the least bit flustered. Have every confidence that whatever we'd have chosen it would have been lovely - hope they keep keeping it simple as it stomps all over the competition in the area.

Not feeling it
Quite like it, do go back, but am generally disappointed every time. Going to be a rubbish review as I can't quite put my finger on it...some of the time, some of the punters just seem to be trying that bit too hard.

And please update the veggie choice - risotto or scary portebello mushrooms, always.

Love Clarence (resident dog) but doesn't the loud music get to him sometimes??

Love this place. At first glance you might assume some degree of pretension but actually spend some time there and it becomes clear there really isn't. Staff are chilled, not too friendly and don't pretend that being there is their life and they just want to be your friend.

Food - good quality, well priced. Great for a meal and a few sedate drinks. Cocktail list could be improved...but other than that this place really works.
