Excellent food. Can be a bit noisy but we were tucked into a corner thankfully. And it wasn’t too busy either. So enjoyable.

Overall the service was great, though it sometimes took a while to get drinks and water. I think putting a bottle of water on the table would be a good idea so you don't have to wait for refills as the water cups are small.

Exceptional attention to detail from seating, stemware to presentation of food, intimate ambience with very cool vibe. We started our evening deciding with which of their unique cocktails to try, it didn’t disappoint, followed by 3 of the appetizers - all were beautifully presented and delicious, their wine list offers sustainable wines. We will definitely be going back to see Karina and the talented team. Overall experience for this hidden gem on William Street is 10/10.
