Latest review:

Exceptional lunch We ate the entire menu between the 5 of us and shared each dish. The food is simply fabulous. The flavours and textures were bold and surprising. The wine list is, in fact, imaginative and almost reasonably priced. It is no problem to have the wine decanted which is necessary as the wines of the “normal” list are quite young and stored in a wine fridge so tend to be bit cool for bigger reds. Our account for lunch was as expected and we all viewed it as good value. We did have the duck which inflated the price a little but it was especially great. The chef brings out the whole cooked duck and then takes it back to complete the dish. The result is the breast carved carefully and the remainder of the meat is baked in pastry. One of the best aspects of Portland in my view is the relaxed semi formal nature of the restaurant. We found the service to be just the right level of attentiveness and never rushed. We spent 3 very enjoyable hours and felt privileged to be able to experience such fabulously imaginative food in nicely relaxed surroundings. Go. I believe you will enjoy the experience.
