    Went here for a galentines dinner with my friend and we were both blown away with how yummy the food was! Absolutely obsessed with the king fish sashimi and crispy duck wontons. We got the feed me menu which was very reasonably priced and the mains were a good size. Cocktails were superb. Overall such a great experience, the staff were super friendly and accommodating, the food came out quickly and my taste buds will never be the same. Highly recommend.

    The food is exceptional. Whilst the staff were very friendly, new dishes kept coming out when empty plates had not been taken away and there was no room on the table. The staff looked at 'us' to move the plates around on the table. It is their job to make sure empty plates are taken away and a clear space made, not ours. But the food was incredible and a great vibe there.
