We had the share platter for 2 and overall the presentation was beautiful and there was well and truly more than enough food for the 2 of us. The food was beautiful, perfectly cooked and still so hot when it came to our table. The service was perfect, we weren’t constantly interrupted by them checking in on us but we never had to go searching for help either overall we had a perfect experience
