Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Clean, modern design. Upscale ambience. Menu could have been a bit longer, but all the meals were excellent. We enjoyed beef and fish. Drinks were good. Thoughtful wine list.

We booked this restaurant for dinner on our last night in Derry as it was very close to the hotel we were staying in. It has a large and pleasant interior and very professional staff. I had duck and my partner had a chicken dish....Both were excellent. The prices were not unreasonable for a high-end restaurant. We had a very enjoyable evening.More

We have eaten in the restaurant several times and unfortunately this experience was not great. Three of the party had the fish and they found it very salty and the curried cauliflower overpowered the dish. Needless to say the meal was left unfinished. Definitely wouldn’t...book again in the near future.More

Despite the restaurant being relatively quiet we had to wait some time for a table. The decor needs to be updated but the service was pleasant. The mains were a let down. The Risotto with pieces of bland chicken placed on top was not enjoyable....The Chicken Supreme was served dry and white and was was not eaten. Deserts despite small were tasty and enjoyable. Overall fell short of expectations.More
