Camille's Review

Working closely with independent farmers, the chef at this long-established favorite concentrates on such locally sourced products as lamb, duck, and seafood; quail, venison, and ostrich often make an appearance, too. The menu is based on what's fresh, but might include lemon, ginger, and rock-prawn bisque; halibut with sea scallops and tiger prawns; or organic beef tenderloin. The five-course tasting menu, with optional wine matching, is popular. The wine cellar-like backdrop, on the lower floor of a historic building in Bastion Square, is candlelit and romantic, with exposed brick, local art, soft jazz and blues, and lots of intimate nooks and crannies. The wine list is well selected.
