    We had the tasting menu. This was excellent. Well presented and every dish was explained to us by our waitress. Nice location and very friendly staff. The restaurant has a Michelin Star and you can see why. Some Michelin Star restaurants I have visited are very pretentious but this is not the case with the Dysart. Excellent food served by friendly, knowledgeable staff in pleasant surroundings.
