Genuinely love this place and can't recommend it enough. The food is absolutely outstanding (been many times and never had anything even slightly less than perfect) and the service is so personal - Sharon and the team are fabulous. It's a hidden gem and deserves high praise
5* isn't enough for this restaurant. The food and service is absolutely faultless. Best place to go if you love food. I would highly recommend this restaurant to anyone especially the crab bisque. It is one of our favourites.
Always an absolute stunning experience at this venue. I implore you to try the Lobster Bisque, it is a gorgeous dish. You can not go wrong at this place, great service, great food and great venue.
Lovely ambience, soft music playing in the back ground. Staff were very polite. Wasn't rushed at all which was nice. Food was absolutely amazing , the flavours were out of this world. Will definitely be going back. Thank you so.much for making our evening with you memorable.
Dated restaurant, but great food, and some different dishes.
We had the tasting menu with wine pairing, amazing. £270.00 for the both of us, expensive but for a special occasion perfect.
Most amazing staff working here. The food was spectacular and we really felt cared for. We were invited for a drink on the house as we left due to it being so quiet but we were driving so had to decline! Also they did a lovely little platter for our anniversary. I'm so sorry I didn't get the name of the woman who waited on us, but she was a star and so lovely!
Fantastic dinner for two at The Orange Tree last week. Never been before but had heard good things and was pleased to see reviews were correct. Food was excellent, great wine list, very attentive service, would recommend
The food yet again was phenomenal. The only slight criticism is that I wasn't keen on the wine you get with the taster menu(the red wine and port) and would of liked two bits of bread with the parfait. I only gave a 4 star on the atmosphere because it was a really quiet Saturday night and there was only a small amount of customers in. The people are so lovely as well!
Fantastic dining experience with amazing food, the service was fantastic, worth every penny
It's always a pleasure to dine at The Orange Tree, and Tatjana, Vittorio and their team work hard to make the experience an enjoyable one (even the simple steps from booking a table to arranging a taxi at the end of the evening). The menu is excellent, each dish attentively prepared and presented, and the extensive wine list surfaced some new favourites.
Highly recommended for lovers of quality British and European cuisine.
Nice food and when we went there wasn't too many people. This restaurant is a top fine dinning restaurant as the prices show, but well worth a visit. Plan to return.

Husband surprised me with the most wonderful evening here for my birthday! The Orange Tree is a beautifully decorated intimate restaurant with real old world charm - for one thing it's quite rare these days to be greeted and chatted to by the restaurant owners but here Vittorio and his wife, Tatjana go out of their way to make you feel welcome and it does make you feel valued. And as part of that old world charm, Vittorio brings a wealth of experience and knowledge not just to the food but the wine as well - the Orange Tree's wine selection is second to none.
As for the food, it was absolutely delicious. I would say that I'm not usually a big fan of goat's cheese but the Skyla Goat's Cheese with Charred Fig was amazing - I could have had that as a main! The Risotto had the best flavour and garnishing I have ever had in a risotto, even in Italy. Just divine. Husband had the Tornedos with blue cheese sauce and it was cooked to perfection - clean plates from both us I can tell you. And desserts - Creme Brulee and Pannacotta, mouth watering so compliments to Martin the chef!
Another really important part of any dining experience is the service and I have to say, all the staff are excellent - Mila, Phoenix, Anna and Carolina were so professional and pleasant to chat to I had to know their names!
All in all a huge thank you to everyone at the Orange Tree for making my birthday dinner so special. I love the Orange Tree so I recommend this restaurant to everyone - it's perfect for couples but suits bigger groups too!
Fantastic food and friendly staff. Great meal out for my birthday.
