    From the tapas, appetizers and main course everything was delicious. We ordered some anchovies tapas, first time I tried them and they were spectacular. And what to say about the wine, we chose one on the recommendation of the waiter and it did not disappoint!

    Staff were fantastic, they were attentive and informative. Venue is niche and great for catch ups, date night etc. Bit pricey but you’re in the CBD so that’s to be expected. What to expect: friendly knowledgeable staff, tasty food, good vibes, great music and a second to none location. What not to expect: great value for money, beers or a bad time. 8/10
