Bar staff were sooo good, attention to our food, followed up on the steak which was v.toufg/dry and changed it without problems immediately. Really understanding and wanted us to enjoy our night. Highly recommend the staff as assets to the team. Not too noisy on the top floor, great access to clean lovely toilets. So chilled after a bit of shoping on a sat evening. Great job guys thank you 👌🏼👌🏼

Poor service, incredibly sparse and painfully slow when we eventually were able to order a drink. Food was mediocre, foccacio was the saving grace - other plate was totally bland.

The food was brilliant, even as someone who generally isn't very adventurous with food. The staff were lovely and went out of their way to make a good experience.

Very average food for an insanely expensive price. Very disappointing to have to drop €130 on a handful of dishes that were all average at best. Pity
