David Higgs and his team have created something very special at the Saxon in Sandhurst, seating a maximum of 30 people. Lovely dramatic interior, mostly black. The 6 course tasting menu is very innovative and creative, also for vegetarians. The sommelier is also excellent, innovative choices. Pricey, but worth every cent! The waitstaff just need to relax and have fun.
