Food was good but not as good as a couple of years ago. Halloumi was only drilled on one side & the chorizo it came with not that spicy. Balkan sausage good. We got 6 dishes which was enough as portions are reasonable size. Would try it again but choose different a couple of different dishes.

Absolutely fantastic. The service by a young man who was serving & looking after everyone was brilliant! The food was excellent but would have liked a few more ingredients with some of my tapas dishes but overall amazing. We will be back :)
