CALEB Restaurant & Bar

Went along to Caleb Restaurant yesterday evening celebrating a birthday in a party of 5. We have heard good things about this restaurant in advance, and we weren't disappointed. Attentive, responsive, informed, friendly yet unobtrusive service made it a memorable evening. We all chose from the a la carte menu, and the food was absolutely delicious. It was a quiet evening, and we were attended to by Caleb himself. It is quite clear he has a real passion for food, and he prepares it with fine skill. My last minute request for a gluten-free starter and dessert did not faze him, and both were top notch. The background music was appropriate and not too loud to intrude on conversation. I would thoroughly recommend Caleb Restaurant and Bar.

This place has the potential to be awesome, but I have to say I am a little disappointed. We went tonight and there were a few things not right. The wait staff seemed disorganized, our wine took forever to come out and they kept seemingly to check with the main waiter (guy in glasses) which table food had to go to. I feel like some of the wait staff were new. The food was also not cooked well, particularly the lamb. I’m also disappointed because I let them know ahead of time twice I needed gluten free options, only to discovered on the night that they had no gluten free pasta or bread, I suspect something may have been wrong on the night as everything just didn’t feel right. We plan to try again, and I hope things are better by then. Wine was really good though.
