The food was superb. Help with wine selection steered us to excellent choices. The restaurant is lovely and it was quiet enough to talk across the table even though there were diners on both sides of us. I wouldn't hesitate to go back.

Wonderful! Had the sea bass— which was a whole small fish with lovely potato’s, asparagus and sauces. Had linguini with seafood. Full of juicy fat prawns, shrimp, scallops, mussels. The sauce was exquisite? Wine flights, yummy bread with dipping oil, salad so delicate, cheesecake for desert. I am in heaven here! Great staff!
