    Excellent food. Honestly could live comfortably off of all their starters, dips, and hot mezzes. Our server Greg was a great mix of funny, accommodating and attentive. Great meal.

    Skewers were amazing, and cocktail was 8/10. The Dips and salad ok, i mean fresh and tasty but you can find it everywhere. The Desserts rice pudding was a suprise, but strawberry ice cream is normal. Overall a wonderful experience due to service, setting, easy access.

    It was one of the best dinner nights for us. The food was amazing and much better than we expected of a WINTERLISHES. The best part was our server Nabil who went out of the way to make our dinner a special one for us. His charming character, the knowledge of the food and the patience to listen made our dinner an extraordinary one. We will definitely go again soon with family/friends.

    Winterlicious 2025. Semi-hidden restaurant on the second floor. Ambience is excellent - it’s modern but warm with comfortable touches like their couch seating that spans much of the northern perimeter. Regular menu is small and easy to choose from, wine selection offers plenty of choice. Bathrooms are clean and well maintained. We had two servers and both were very friendly and attentive. Glasses were kept full of water which I appreciated. Food- I’ll start by saying it’s a 4 course winterlicious meal. There was a lot of food between the dips, mezze , main and dessert. I believe a floor manager or host recommended the Truffle Rakakat (spelling*) for the mezze portion. Not that the other food wasn’t great but, man oh man, the Rakakat was VERY good. If you like cheese, it’s a levelled up mozzarella stick. Mains were lamb and skewer plates. Both great and there was plenty of food, no skimping here! All in all, it was a great winterlicious experience here. Makes me want to come back for the regular service menu.
