A great experience from start to finish. The ambience is excellent, and Tetto is cool, stylish but welcoming - the staff are super friendly. The menu is great, varied and interesting, well-priced and the food was great. The drinks menu is smaller, but again, the options are carefully selected and really good. The view is also good, even on a cold December day!
