This is my second time eating here. Both times the wait for food seemed excessive for a restaurant that didn't seem overly busy; however, it is attached to a hotel and there could have been room service orders that I am not aware of. The food was good. And here comes the disappointing part of my review and the reason for the low stars. I ordered lobster risotto. The first bite contained a very large (3") piece of lobster cartilage that narrowly missed getting lodged in my throat. When the server came around to check in, I advised him. He offered to have my dish recooked but that wasn't necessary as the damage was done. He took the cartilage and left. He never said another word. Assuming my meal would be comped, I didn't say anything either. Unfortunately, that wasn't the case. I paid full price for my meal and no one said anything. No apologies either. Quite disappointing.

Food was mediocre and overpriced. Service was poor (waited 25 mins for our bill after saying we were ready, and the waiter was standing around looking at us most of this time). Won't be going back!

Firstly, the resto is nicely designed and very elegant, with various different sitting areas based on your needs. Also, the service overall is very good, from the lady that took us to our reserved table, to the manager who stopped by to check on us… And we particularly liked our server, who was a young man, very polite, professional and knowledgeable about the menu. A big shout out to him… The food was good, not perfect, but we look forward to visiting again with pleasure. Thanks to the team…

Food and service was outstanding. There was a private event going on at the same time as our dinner so this made it a bit noisier than I would have liked but the host moved our reservation table to a quieter area. Was a lovely meal
