This is a restaurant with rooms in Yeovil. It's about 20 mins walk from the town centre but about 5…read moremins in a cab and on a quite street close to a main road with a morrisons. We stayed the night here and also had dinner. A nice touch was the owner ringing us the night before to check if we wished to dine because they were nearly fully booked. The rooms were really large and very well decorated, almost to malmaison standards but with a warmer feel. The food was very nice. Traditional but with a European twist - very nice lamb and steaks were had, along with a bottle of champagne to celebrate a friend's birthday. The owner came and told us all about the specials and the staff were attentive and friendly. Our favourite moment was when coffees arrived and we were presented with a 'coffee garnish' which was a small mousse type thing! I am dying to have an excuse to go back to Yeovil so I can take someone to stay here. Very much recommended.

You'd have thought being just up the hill from one of the biggest employers in the area with over 3000 employees it would be heaving. The last time I eat here was at a leaving do - I know I was a little bit late and you had my pre-order, but was there any reason why you had to cook it and then leave it on the hot-counter for me until I arrived? Nothing worse than dried, over-cooked salmon and prawn risotto. My theory is the chef is used to doing large banquets (judging by all the pictures of himself all over the restaurant) and thinks he's Ramsey. Hot tip - people who are number one rarely need to shout about it, especially in the restaurant trade. I fear the chef may have lost any degree of humility which would allow him to improve. Trying to be positive, the Ciabattas and salads are fine, but then you've got to be pretty special to mess that sort of food up.
