    Our first trip to SEN since it changed hands from Firld years ago and we loved it. Brilliant service, wry accommodating for our toddler since there isn’t a choldren’s menu and my toddler loved her plate they made up. The Malbec was fantastic and my favourite dish was the Saigon-style pork belly from the Christmas menu.

    If I had known it was in a food court in a shopping centre I would not have booked the table. I am so glad that I didn’t, as we would have missed out on a nice meal. The host Tomaz was fantastic and had us laughing all night. Great value for money and really tasty food. Only down side was lack of choice when it came to alcoholic drinks.
