Food was absolutely amazing!(wish we could of told the chef!) We got the octopus which was one of the best dishes I have ever had with all of the flavours. Such a wide variety to pick from as well! This was our first time at Finn’s and will certainly be back. Thank you so much for a wonderful date night that blew us away!
