    Amazing food, very busy. We made reservations and we had to still wait for 10 mins and once seated we had to wait to put in our order. Overall, very good and I would go again.

    Beautiful restaurant with great food and service. Only issue was that the service was very slow as it seemed they were understaffed.

    excellent food in a lovely setting. servers are very polite, there just aren’t enough of them so once you’ve been served you have to flag someone down if you need something.

    Excellent food! All food was well seasoned and well cooked, they've even managed to make chicken breast tasty! Beautiful open dining room, means for a slightly higher noise level when the restaurant is full. Service was a tad sparse, but extremely kind. Would return & recommend!

    Food was amazing as always. Service could be better - servers need training when serving and taking plates away. Had to lean sideways a few times to avoid a tray in my face or a knife in my eye. Had to look for a server every single time and asked for water a few times before receiving any.
