The food was amazing. The atmosphere was excellent with great service and friendly and knowledgeable staff. Price the food before you go so you are not surprised by the bill. The quality of the food was worth the money for us. But it will be a dinner to save for.

Great experience as usual. Service impeccable and food excellent. Only small gripe is the noise level. It’s very loud in the restaurant which could do with some sound dampening panels
