    Good place for vegetarians and non-vegetarians who are dining together. Service was a bit off for those with time limits- no food menus on the table to start, only drink and dessert menu- and charming but oddly inattentive servers. As a long-time customer, I do note that the food has retained the lovely flavours even as the ingredients have become less generous and the prices have risen remarkably .

    A very strange place. The food was adequate, but the servers all seemed like they were in a cult, with weird smiles pasted on their faces. We were asked 7 times if we wanted to order more food, and each time we said "No thanks," and then we were asked the same question again and again. A very sorrowful looking elderly man was walking around playing 1950s tunes on the violin, and he was accompanied by music blaring out of a worn looking bluetooth speaker in his pocket. We did not like the music at all but were told that we had to pay $4 each in a tip for the musician. Overall, it was one of the oddest dining experiences I've ever had and I would not return.

    The menu has some amazing options and it’s great that you get to try a variety of dishes given the small portions. Service was excellent and everyone at our table loved their desserts! Would recommend.
