    Excellent as always, staff are always very attentive, food is delicious. It was very noisy inside the restaurant as we passed through to eat outside, however I think it would have been preferable due to the intense heat we experienced outside. Otherwise, as I said, excellent.

    The store was busy, but the staff were attentive and food came quickly given how busy it was. The decor, set up and vibe of the place is fantastic. For this visit, because it was full it was quite noisy inside, which reduced the ambience a bit. Lovely food, lovely staff.
