" I recently visited The Rushton with friends, and we all enjoyed our meals. The seafood dishes were especially praised for their freshness and flavor. The atmosphere was lively, although it did get quite loud at times. The serving sizes were generous, but some dishes seemed overpriced. Overall, a pleasant dining experience. " (*Curated Review*)

" The last visit was a bit underwhelming. While the starters were quite good, the mains didn't live up to the expectations. My fish was overcooked, and the sides could have been better seasoned. The service was decent but left us waiting for drinks longer than expected. I still think it’s a nice place, but I may take a break before returning. " (*Curated Review*)

" I’ve been to The Rushton countless times, and it never fails to impress! However, my last experience was a little different. The service was slow, and there seemed to be confusion with my order. Nevertheless, the food was as delicious as always, particularly the seasonal fish dish. I’ll return, but I hope for a smoother experience next time. " (*Curated Review*)

" I visited The Rushton for a weekday lunch and was pleasantly surprised by how tranquil the atmosphere was. I had the grilled octopus, which was tender and flavorful. The staff were friendly and ensured I had everything I needed without being intrusive. The portion was just right for lunchtime too. Altogether, it was a lovely meal. " (*Curated Review*)

" Visit The Rushton if you want a cozy, pleasant dining experience. Food wise, they nail the seafood dishes — rich, flavorful, and beautifully composed plates. I was struck by the attention to detail from the staff too. Everything ran smoothly from start to finish. I’m definitely looking forward to more visits! " (*Curated Review*)

" The Rushton continues to be my go-to for dinner. Their attention to seasonal ingredients shines through in every dish. The lamb was cooked perfectly, and the service was excellent. The ambiance feels intimate, making it ideal for special occasions or just a comforting meal. Would recommend anyone to dine here at least once! " (*Curated Review*)
