We had such a special dinner at the restaurant last night. The food was incredible and the night was made even better by our lovely waitress who went out of her way to make our evening as memorable as possible. Thank you so much and thank you especially to our waitress who we think was called Jade.

Superb place. We went for early pre-theatre food and drinks. It was spot on. The staff are so friendly and professional. Food was gorgeous. We had the padron peppers and the tacos which were amazing. Will definitely be back.
