Great food and atmosphere. The valentines meal was nice, albeit it wasn’t clear when booking that a la carte was not being served after 5pm. Still good value considering the quality of the food. Our host Faiza was lovely. She assured we had everything we needed with enthusiasm and a smile and we were not chased for our table either. Recommended.
