    Tando took my booking and was our server. She is wonderful. Your wine (sb) by the glass was good. The prawns and sauce delis. As was pea rice. Thank you for delicious creme brûlée treat for my friend. I had missed her birthday the previous day and the dinner was an apology and a chance to try out Summer House. I am a local resident. Fire was perfect and made for a cozy room. I prefer to book directly rather than go online via Dineplan. I will be back.
