    The meal was excellent. The stuffed gnocchi was my favourite dish of the night! The combination of taleggio and truffle complemented each other very well. The service was attentive and friendly. The waiter made my birthday dinner feel very special!

    4 of us dined at 8pm on a friday night, great service and it was a fun vibe (not too noisy, cosy and funky decor). We had the tasting menu and it was plentiful, delicious and such a bargain! Bao, charcoal plate and krispie treats were the highlights. I wasn't loving my first mocktail and they kindly replaced it - highly recommend the Red Mystique if you enjoy something on the sweeter side. Can't wait to dine again!

    Another fabulous evening at our favourite neighbourhood spot! We paired the house old fashioned & Guinness with the sticky toffee pudding- absolutely divine. Hospitality from bartender Nick was 11/10.
