We were there for a friends birthday lunch. The service was great, I believe the person looking after us was Kara. Really friendly, helpful.food was amazing, as was the wine choice. I was a little worried at first that we would be in the wine cellar. Was not sure if it would be too small, but it was actually really nice. We have been there before and definitely go back.
