5 star for service and ambiance, perfect for a romantic meal. Staff were very welcoming and attentive but not intrusive. We had the degustation menu which was delicious but the dessert was disappointing. There was an extra charge for the sticky date pudding but it was tasteless and looked like it had been microwaved, there was no body to it or any debt of flavour. The scallops described on the menu was from a previous menu. We felt for a degustation menu everything should have been included in the price. However we would recommend this restaurant for the overall experience

Overated. Fish was slightly over cooked, portions were too small. Sides were not suggested for the small portions. Plates were cold which led to food becoming cold too quickly.

From the first time we entered the restaurant we received outstanding service, delicious food and well worth a visit for a special occasion. You wont be disappointed

Just had the most wonderful anniversary dinner at Friends Restaurant.
Staff were extremely attentive, funny and welcoming. Could not fault a single thing.
Food was delicious and the degustation plates came out perfectly timed.
5* night!

A really nice meal. Very expensive but we chose the matching wines which hikes the price up. All the wait staff are asian except for the owner and his wife - and the owner kind of hangs around and tells a few stories, which is ok but not really our preference. The cooking is modern and delicious - the setting is old fashioned. This makes it a bit of a confused experience. Overall enjoyable but for the price. I'm not sure we would return. There are modern restaurants with similar pricing options we would choose first.
