The quality for the steak and carpaccio was excellent but i did had a problem with the eggplant, it needs more seasoning especially the salt. But even tho i had a problem i really enjoyed having dining in there.

It was a great place to eat for Christmas lunch. We arrived about 45 minutes early and they accommodated us by getting a table for us straight away. Even though the menu was limited, it was very good for choice. The food was cooked beautifully and the staff were very attentive. The menu pricing was reasonable for a Christmas Day. I would highly recommend this restaurant and we will be going again in the new year.
