Let’s clarify a few things… If I were looking at TripAdvisor at this restaurant, and read through the varying reviews, I wouldn’t know what to think. So, having eaten here on Tuesday, let me clarify through my experience:- The food is excellent. If you are not a big eater, I’d certainly recommend ordering 2 starters. It took quite a while to get through the starter course of scallops.- Without ordering vegetables, the mains are a manageable size (I ordered the Veal, which was without vegetables, so had these as a side dish).- The price of the food is the top end, especially in Swansea, but the quality is good enough to deserve the prices. It’s certainly a ‘special occasion’ restaurant.- There are both tables with chairs and tables with benches. So you may well be sitting close to another table. I’d recommend upon booking asking for a separate table. I have not seen downstairs, so cannot comment. On Tuesday night the restaurant was full, had a lovely atmosphere, and as we were on a separate table for 4, did not feel too close to other diners.- The waiting times for food are towards the longer end. We actually had our starter and main course in reasonable time considering the restaurant was full. However, dessert did take a long time, ironically when the restaurant was at its quietest. Our drinks order was taken within 5 minutes and our food order within 10.- The service lets the restaurant down. The staff are not particularly attentive or caring. We got a negative vibe off our waitresses, however it did not affect our enjoyment of the night or the meal. It was the little things – placing your food down hurriedly and carelessly, not providing cutlery before the courses rather than after & general demeanour. So, a great restaurant for special occasions or in search of good, tasty food (but don’t think you will be treated like royalty). Request a separate table if you don’t like being too close to others, give yourself time and enjoy the wine and great food.
