Absolutely stunning place. The ambience was incredible, drinks were creative, and food was outstanding. The staff was also very kind, helpful, and knowledgeable of the menu. It did get a bit noisy at times but overall experience was 11/10. I would go back and eat the exact same meal- it was that good.

Great flavours and great ambiance. The cod and braised beef dishes were our favourites. We also enjoyed the slaw. The octopus carpaccio was very spicy; maybe too much. We devoured the molten chocolate cake, which was one of the best. The dessert sampler of all-time favourites was also enjoyable and a nice mix of flavours The portion sizes were better than expected. One of the most memorable meals we’ve had in years. Would definitely come back.
