    Food was good and the portion was generous compared with other restaurants for the same price range. The experience was however ruined by poor service as one waiter keeps coming and asking "are you guys done?" provided we obviously haven't finished our plates. He at last gave up asking and gazed at us from beside, as if we've wasted a lot of his time. Instead of having the waiter process the card payment, I had to do it on my own. It made me feel like I was dining in a random low-end restaurant. Other staff did great indeed.

    One of the best dining experiences. The dishes are delicious, excellent tastes and very well presented. The staff are kind, attentative, very professional and pay attention to details. Last but not least is the building and the decoration, a fantastic hall transformed into a very cosy, intimate and high-end ambience.

    Lovely ambience, lovely food. Staff was so attentive and friendly except for one. I asked him if he is okay as he is so serious and he said he just focused of his work. That’s good but a nice smile and hello is better!

    Always so good to return. It feels like coming home. If home had a kitchen full of creative and skilled culinary professionals and a front of the house team absolutely focused on the best experience possible. Thank you once again for a truly lovely time.
