The venue and restaurant are very nice, the bar has a good vibe, it's maybe a bit too loud depending what you like. The restaurant is on the top floor and the ambiance is calmer with less noise making it ideal for conversation. The food is great but choices fairly limited with only 4 starters and similar number of mains on offer. Everything we had was tasty and will presented.
