Although it is understandable not to be able to get a table near the window, what is unfortunate is having to wait next to a table with only a backless pouf, which is uncomfortable for the back. As for the service, some servers were very friendly, but one waitress, in particular, lacked cordiality and professionalism, which is truly regrettable. Unfortunately, my partner and I ate quickly because the service was not up to standard, and we just wanted to finish our meal and leave.

Very pleasurable experience on a very special occasion, my son's 18th birthday. We were treated with consideration from the entrance till the end, the guest receptionist was very polite and friendly and offered us a window table in a very short while. Drinks, main course and desert were very tasty but the view was just amazing. I would definitely come back.

We enjoyed the cocktails, the beans, the spinach, the vegetarian platter but not the Sashimi platter. We were charged £46 for the Sashimi platter. I asked the waiter for how many people is this platter for 2 or 4 . He would not answer. We asked him how many pieces were there. He would not answer. I cannot believe that for £46 we only got 3 pieces of salmon, 3 pieces of tuna and 3 pieces of something else. I think I was extremely short changed on this!

Not worth the price. Was waiting for our window seat for an hour and by the time we got our window seat they told us we only had 30 minutes left. Staff was quite rude. Atmosphere was good. Drinks are decent but nothing special. Wouldn’t come here again as there are so many better places at the same price.
