Best KPortal Reviews

A very reasonable price for two courses. Staff did not hurry us away although they did say that they needed the table back in four hours which was absolutely no problem.
At this time of year the place was very busy but staff coped well with good humour.
Toilets are in the basement but there is a disabled toilet on the same level as the restaurant.
Private car park to the rear.
Disappointed with tonight's visit. Small things like not bringing more cutlery to suit the courses. Fajitas were sizzling the first time we came and tasted so much better. Seafood course was sadly lacking in seafood. Tempura was excellent. All starters were good. We had intended on looking at the dessert menu but no-one offered it and we lost interest after 10 mins and asked for the bill instead. Won't be rushing back.
Had Christmas dinner with daughter, my only issue was and i hope they take this as a positive criticism because other than the two main course the whole experience was top notch , alas the beef was miles from being edible. And the turkey was much the same, dry . Not worth the money as my two mains went back to the kitchen minus the veg and mash.
Again the staff was delightful.
Since the new menu has went out we have been twice and it's much much better. Great deals on cocktails and service is so much better. Special menu is great value. We will be back.
So looking forward to this meal with my friend, but not a brilliant experience.
Starter was pate but did not look very appetising however got to say it was very tasty. Main course was slow cooked beef which again did not look very appetising but to my surprise again was very tasty, especially the vegetables. Sweet was Cranaghan (think that's what it was called) again was not very appetising looking and got to say it tasted like dried oats with a raspberry stick in it, couldn't taste cream or whiskey, so so dry.
Wine was good and staff were pleasant enough but no one bothered to come and find out why we sent the sweet back.!!!!!!
Such a shame as we were so looking forward to this meal.
Went with my family tonight for the first time. The food was lovely we all enjoyed our main courses. The staff were lovely, the surroundings are beautiful and cosy.
We will definitely be returning soon
Just waited 90 mins for my main course, when I queried this, there was no apology and I was told it was literally being plated up. 20 mins we later gave up and left. When we went to pay for the drinks and starter we had had, only to be met at the bar by a customer aggressively arguing with my 70 year old mother, staff did nothing until I had to step in to help her. Then when he offered me out ????, they became interested. Not quite the family meal experience we hoped for.
Great Meal, when we phoned up to book a table and explained we had a wheel chair with us so she sat us at a big table with plenty of room for other guests to get by.
Staff were very attentive and made sure we were ok and had everything we needed throughout our visit, one of meals was lamb and it was a bit tough for my mother in law (she has problems chewing so that was our mistake and not the restaurant, the Lamb was fine for us) so we asked to change it for her for the fish and this was not a problem and it came very quickly. The fish looked very nice with big flakes of fish. Sticky toffee pudding and cheesecake to finish.
With the wheel chair we used their lift which was easy to operate and assisted by the staff holding doors ope for us.
Once again an Overall very enjoyable evening and top marks to the Staff for being very helpful and courteous.
Will definitely return
