Nice atmosphere and attentive staff. The fish steak tastes great, the lamb is mainly very good, but nothing special. Will eat here again
Great food, cozy atmosphere. Our server was quick and friendly. When we went up at the end to pay, he even gave us a quick taste test education on how different barrels can change the flavor of your gin. I was really impressed! What a fun way to end the night. Highly recommend.
So the positive things are nice enviroment, food LOOKS nice, and cute waiters. The negative things are little amount of food, all the meat are dry and cold, just not very tasty, also very expensive for what the results are, and we waited for 40 mins when its not even that busy.
Spent our date night here, first time here and it was a Saturday night not to late, was a great place for an intimate dinner, wasn’t loud, great service and personal with the waiters which was nice. Also no crowed. Entrée we had the charcoal coated prawns and chorizo, this was really delicious the sauce was amazing.. wanted more also the chicken liver pâté because I love pâté and it was creamy and smooth like moose loved it. Mains were great too a little small on the lamb portion I thought. However ! It would of be nice to have been advised by service that there was a Latin dance thing on that night, in advance. We were enjoying a beautiful romantic dinner then all of a sudden flocks of couples arrived, loud Latin music started the floor was cleared of tables and a dance off began which changed the tune of our evening immediatly I was not happy. We didn’t stay any longer to soak up our evening.
Most outstanding and tasty food service is exceptional and great ambience highly recommended
Food was extremely good but overpriced.
Fantastic foods and kind staffs. So amazing!!!
We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. Servings were generous, beautifully presented and full of flavour. The owner/manager was so obviously passionate about what he was doing it was reflected in the friendly service and attention we received from all staff. While not a cheap and cheerful restaurant we felt the menu represented good value for money. The venue was tastefully done and comfortable. We would highly recommend you go.
Amazing service which felt very personal. If our drinks were finished the waiter was there immediately. The food was exceptional. I highly recommend eating here. Best service and food we have had in a longtime.
8 of us visited this restaurant for the 1st time as it was my birthday. 8 of us discussed it afterwards & 8 of us were quite disappointed with the quality of the food. I ordered the Fillet steak. It was not fillet steak, was full of fat, chewy, & difficult to eat. Definitely not fillet. Virtually all items on the menu were ordered at the table. No one was really happy with their meal. It was also difficult to communicate with voices bouncing off the walls & ceiling. Choice of wines was also poor. Under no circumstances should this restaurant be rated as highly as it is. Will not recommend to anyone or will any of us ever go back.
