Slightly on the pricey side, but the food was very very good and the portions are big. The Jamiroquai background music didn’t really fit the setting, but other than that I do really recommend a visit to Pique-Nique.

Amazing ambiance and great service. Food was nice but not outstanding. Had the beef shin ravioli with the beef fat crumb, that actually tasted like scraps from the fish and chip shop which overpowered the taste of the beef shin. Fantastic wine list.
