Booked a table for 4 people, had ‘that friend’ confirm he could make it the day before so had to up our head count by one.

We had a team dinner (20 of us) and Chatora was a hit! The menu was fantastic and the owner accommodated different tastes and alterations without hesitation. Service was quite fast given our table size but we were not at all rushed. We will be coming back soon.
