I've been meaning to try this restaurant for the past couple of years and boy was it worth it. Two options, weekend special 3 course for £25 or al a carte. First impressions- elegant, chic you name it. To be fair at first i was dressed smart casual but other diners were suited & booted and i felt under-dressed. The internal decor was modern/contempory/stylish. Firstly sat down with drinks and an apperitife. Being shown to our table, the full beauty of this stylish restaurant becomes apparent. Most of us will never get the chance to dine in the elegance of fine dining in the more exclusive restaurants. Twelve is as near as damn it. Starter was The Mackeral, as a smoker your taste buds generally lose an element of taste but they certainly shone through i really cannot find words to describe that dish that would characterise the essence of it...amazing. Main course was The Duck. Again a sublime peace of art on a plate. Presentation, immaculate along with service. Finally the desert, i personally don't like chocolate but i tried the chocolate fondant just because you see it regular on cooking programmes. This from my expectations from tv was everything you could demand from an excellent dish. Conclusion- Overall price was approx £100 including drinks which when i got the bill was cheaper than expected by about £50. So i have a favourite restaurant but this place has just taken its place. AAAA++++
