   Cold food in a cold & miserably decorated room The only side of vegetables was broccoli- no side salads or vegetable based starters Really disappointing

   The welcome, the knowledge and the service all helped to make it a memorable lunch.

   Having read great reviews, we were excited to come to the Swan for my son's 18th birthday. Sadly we were very disappointed. The service was largely excellent, and our waiter was charming. However, that's where the positives mostly end. As a special occasion, we started with cocktails and mocktails - the latter seemed to go down well, but the cocktails were not up to much (my martini, in particular, was poor). For food, we were advised it was tapas style sharing and recommended to go for two small plates and one large plate - the former being in the 15 quid region and the latter 25 and above. The small plates were minuscule and the large ones were hardly much bigger, so this was not enough food, and we had to order more bread (nothing comes free) to try and fill up. The large plates, in particular, were very disappointing, with very little substance. A dish of cod on romesco sauce, for example, whilst actually by far the tastiest thing we had, was a tiny piece of fish on a swirl of sauce with three broccoli stems - almost impossible to share as it was so small - for 25 pounds this felt like a rip-off but at least it tasted good. Most other dishes were similarly tiny but didn't taste that good. As we feasted on toast when we got home starving, we all agreed that the dishes lacked flavor (possibly salt?) The desserts were sadly not much better. My cheesecake with apple granita was a bizarre and unenjoyable experience. All in all - 450 quid for a meal for 5, which we left hungry and unsatisfied, felt like a mugging. For context, we have eaten in several other fine dining restaurants, so we are not ignorant of the difference between a carvey and a restaurant; this is just poor. Maybe we just had an off night. Sadly, i suspect this place will not survive unless it changes its game massively

   The 2nd time I have eaten here and I think that it was even better if that's possible. The attention to detail and culinary masterpieces produced were truly excellent. I wish you every success in your next venture and hope that I can find you to enjoy your superb food once again. Thank you

   The food and service were Michelin-quality; however, the restaurant ambience was not great ; it felt a bit like being in a hall.
