The Sundial

What a wonderful experience. My mother's 80th birthday sorry 21st again. A superb restaurant. A big car park plenty of space. A lovely welcome and a bottle of champagne sitting on a sofa opening gifts. Some delicate pastries, sandwiches and olives. My sister forgot to tell them she's gluten free - no problem at all. The chef came out to discuss food options with her and talk about Montpellier where he had lived and she has been living the last 12 years. Such a selection of amazing food - we were overwhelmed. I was glad I had skipped breakfast to allow room for lunch. But the portions were generous without being too much. Les amuse bouches were delightful - a courgette, avocado, garlic mousse (hope I remembered that right) was delicious. Scallop starter for me and mum, foie gras for my brother. They even had a gluten free bread roll with her starter for my sister - she was stunned. That does not happen ever ! Main courses of fish, steak x2 and rack of lamb all delicious with vegetables and superb sauces. Desserts of sorbets were fabulious and the trio of chocolates kept the chocahoclics more than contented and raving. Then coffee and some delicious pastries. We definitely stayed longer than any other restaurant meal ever. But we were still welcome and pampered. Thank you so much. Wonderful service and food. Very very highly recommend. Wonderful on all counts. Will be back soon. Thank you, mum had the best birthday and we all had the best meal/experience possibly ever.

Birthday treat for my cousin, actually cannot fault the food or the staff here, it is excellent even catered for my celiac
