Fantastic evening in an unhurried atmosphere. The food was superb and I would highly recommend this amazing restaurant. Small parties only which keeps the atmosphere close and friendly, the staff engaged with us very well and we had a good chance to laugh with them. Prepare to be there for a long time, you far a lot of food and really need to allow time to enjoy it properly.

Restaurants with 1 Michelin star can be sometimes hit and miss - but Restaurant Tristan was hit after hit after hit(!). Highly impressed with the sheer inventiveness and variety of dishes, from an amazing quail plate that was a take on a Caesar salad, to the delicious prawn and harissa. The “three little pigs” - with the tenderloin, belly and terrine all standout. The scallop beef dish was just so tasty with a great mix of textures and flavours. There really wasn’t a weak course at all, which is so extremely rare in a multi course (semi)tasting menu. This simply is top end cooking to rival any other top class restaurants anywhere in the UK. We had the 6 course menu and were full and satisfied by the end - I actually doubt we could have taken down the full 9 course, so just bear that in mind when ordering. On certain weekdays you can go a la carte where you choose anywhere between 2 and 4 courses. Service was first class - friendly, efficient, knowledgeable, and genuine - really makes a difference and makes you want to come back again for sure. £190 for two (both went 6 courses) with a couple of drinks. I think for the quality of food and staff, this represents strong value for money, given what you can end up spending on some of the michies in London for example. Should be on any food fan’s must go to list. 17/20
