    New owner, not at all as advertised. Very limited "light lunch" menu for a Sunday, not at all Belgian style. Set menu with wine pairing was advertised on printed menu from 12:00 yet wasn't available. We were told it's a printing mistake. The only decent main was a sirloin, which I ordered medium rare. It come well-done with only a side salad at a 5-star price tag. No chips, no veg. I really feel sorry for the staff who are doing their best under the circumstances. New owner/manager: be better, offer training and please update your website. If more people turn around you will soon no longer have a going concern.

    Was a great evening, real value for money. Best fillet steaks we had in years, and the chef prepared a special sugar-free dessert for my father who is a diabetic. 10/10 experience.
