Dexters

This place is just gorgeous. It's a beautiful, twinkly, relaxed atmosphere . The lighting is just right ,the staff are welcoming , polite, attentive. Service was amazing and the food is exceptionally good. Their menu isn't very big but you don't need that , there are options there for all tastes and to be honest once you have tried the steak you wont want to try anything else . I will definitely be visiting again

Decided to try Dexters to celebrate a birthday as it had been recommended highly by a number of friends. Booked a Saturday evening in advance using their easy online booking system. There’s a lovely ambiance as soon as you walk in with subdued and subtle lighting and well-spaced tables. A lovely warm greeting from staff and we were shown to our table. After a brief explanation of the menu and specials board, our drinks order was taken, and we were able to relax and soak up the atmosphere. The menu was well constructed with a small selection of appetisers and varied range of starters on offer to suit most tastes. Main course dishes were segregated into a selection of chef’s specials and a choice of steak cuts that included chateaubriand which took pride of place on the specials board, listed by weight. A number of tempting side accompaniments and sauces completed the menu. The absence of a chicken dish seemed to stand out but as this restaurant is renowned for its steak cuisine, perhaps not that surprising. There was also no salad option to cater for those wanting a lighter meal which would have been nice to see. My partner and I both opted for the scallop starter and requested the focaccia appetiser to accompany it. I have to say that when the dishes were brought to the table, the presentation was exquisite. The scallops were sweet to the taste and perfectly cooked with golden searing from the frying butter. The taste was well contrasted by the deep, slightly salty flavour from the black pudding sat beneath. A crispy bacon crumb and bed of smooth pea puree brought the whole dish together in a taste sensation. For main, the roast rump of lamb was the order of the day. Again, presentation of the main event was flawless! Two succulent, pink roast rumps of tender lamb adorned a bed of soft creamed leeks and dauphinoise potatoes. The dish was brough together by a mint pesto which complimented the lamb beautifully and a rich lamb jus. This was a ‘posh’ lamb dinner on a plate that really didn’t disappoint. I had high expectations going to the restaurant and I was very pleased to see them met. The chef and his team are bang on point as were the front of house staff. Thank you for a lovely evening. We will certainly be back!

Couldn't have asked for a better dining experience at Dexter's, friendly and attentive staff who serve in a professional and friendly manner. There's no hassle and they leave you to enjoy your meal, not leaving you waiting for your next course either. We celebrated an anniversary here and shared the Chateaubriand which was cooked to perfection accompanied with Mac and cheese and creamed spinach both complimenting the meal and with distinctive flavours, the peppercorn sauce and shallot & herb sauces added a depth of flavour which we found to be exquisite. Would highly recommend anyone to come here for a top quality meal that you'll always remember.

First time visting Dexters, it was recommended, so booked a table online, which was easy and convenient to use Gotta say an absolutely amazing time we had, the staff were really courteous and friendly, When our food arrived it was outstanding, our steaks were cooked to perfection and the potions were more than enough. Thanks to the staff for making our visit a great one, will definitely return, a great place must say if you like your Steak.

Sorry it was far too delicious to share a before pic of the food, it was gone before I had the chance! Great service, friendly and helpful. The food was fantastic, the bread, the salads, the chips and the steak simply melted. Now we know of Dexters we will be going again! There is a great atmosphere inside, warm and well decorated, with a fire. All concocted to aid in helping you to relax.

Excellent service! Great food, fillet steak was juicy and tender. Dessert was amazing too! Will definitely be back again!

Beautiful place with a cozy ambiance. Food was delicious! We ordered the 40 day dry aged sirloin steak with garlic, shallot and herb sauce and a sticky toffee pudding for dessert. The herb sauce was unbelievable Just wish the portion sizes of steak were a tad big bigger as the price is on the higher end. An honourable mention to the wonderful staff who were very friendly and mindful of my food allergies. Do recommend reserving in advance. Highly recommend this place for any special occasions or just to treat oneself. Will definitely be back here!

We visited while on a motorcycle holiday passing through. The strength of the Google reviews looked good. We were blown away by the quality of the food and great service! For around 35 each we had a 3 course meal better than many high end restaurants I’ve visited. You can tell the chef really cares about the food. Liver parfait was superb. The ribeye was delicious and glazed in a special secret recipe. The dessert was an equally delicious pana cotta with raspberry and lemon curd coulis. Highly recommended!
