    Charming and efficient service. We ordered the set “Experience” menu to save time. It was all delicious but the crusted chicken was a little dry. The room we were in was very cold but staff responded to our complaint and heating improved. The restaurant is stunningly decorated from floor to ceiling! The music was very loud 70s disco, so great for a party meal, not for a romantic evening.

    One of my favourite places to go, the food is superb, drinks are lovely, the staff are charming and the place is so cozy. Only downside is I don't have a small behind and the stools are quite little!

    Wonderful dining experience, great service and fantastic live music. We ordered the Menzaifu - they were out of duck so the chef substituted calamari - which was very good. The meal progressed with a wonderfully diverse set of flavors culminating with a nice Moqueca at the end. Will definitely be back to sample more dishes.
