    Great service and a wonderful experience. Went as a couple and shared 3 starters/1 main and was very satisfied. A lot of care and attention goes into the presentation and taste of the dishes. Looking forward to coming back soon with even more friends!

    We did our reservation and we were asked to wait for 20-25 mins and even after that we didn’t get the table. The staff was rude and didn’t care about the guests.
    CarnivalResponded on 23 February 2025
    We sincerely apologize for the delay in seating you on Valentine’s Day. It was an incredibly busy evening, and while we did our best to accommodate everyone, we understand that waiting beyond your reservation time was frustrating. We’re also very sorry if our service did not meet expectations. Guest experience is our top priority, and we regret that we fell short. We’d love the chance to make it up to you—please reach out to us, and we’d be happy to welcome you back for a better experience. Best, The Carnival Team

    I didnt expect the place to be so congested. They had multiple tables and I didnt expect to share a table with other couples at arms length. There was barely any room to walk around. The service was pretty bad, we got a pre fix menu and had to wait a long time before each meal. At the end of it we asked for takeout boxes. They took 30 mins to bring the take out meals for us and when we got home and checked, it was someone elses order. Would not recommend.

The mix-up with your takeout order was an unfortunate mistake, and we take full responsibility. We’d love the chance to make it up to you. Please reach out to us, and we’d be happy to invite you back for a better experience. Your feedback is invaluable, and we truly appreciate the opportunity to improve. Best, The Carnival Team
