Osma

This venue is stylishly decorated & the service is fantastic. Overall I found the food to be generally excellent; the chicken Pate toast with gooseberries was delicate but sharp. The oysters were perfectly dressed. We had a raw egg yolk/fish tartare however that was far too rich & salty for the portion size given. I really think it would have benefited from being served as a tasting spoon instead.

We went on Saturday night to try the dinner menu and ordered a set of small plates. They were all excellent. I don’t even know which one was my favourite! But the tuna tartar, pea risotto, tempura, and the lemon sole were absolutely amazing. Do not miss the orange flavoured white wine from Mendoza Argentina. It significantly enhanced our experiences, highly recommended! The service was attentive, knowledgeable abs kind. The atmosphere also provided a relax and mellow environment. The music played was also the right volume (hate it when some places are so loud you just want to leave!) We will definitely be back very soon.

Stunning Sunday lunch today. Every element was beautifully cooked and seasoned. Service was lovely and a good playlist in the background. First time here after sampling a few dishes at Exhibition in Manchester and watching Great British Menu. We are very lucky to have such quality available to us so make sure you visit!

We went for the lunch menu, which was very reasonably priced. We had a snack of bread and whipped butter to start. Starter was a pea soup or a tenderstem broccoli dish with a cheese I can’t remember the name of, and pesto, both of which were very good. Main was the beef, which was beautiful. The potatoes with them as well were very good. The only disappointment was desert, which was bread and butter pudding with marmalade. The pudding itself needed to be hotter, it felt very dense, and the marmalade was quite bitter in places. This was all made up for by the beautiful custard though. All in all very good meal, but I think I’ll be booking the evening meal next time which is clearly the main event. I really wish some of the small plates available on an evening were also available during the day.
