Food was phenomenal although that one brussel sprout dish was a bit random and didn’t really taste like much but apart from that food was amazing. Great service everyone was very welcoming and nice. Definitely will be back. Every dish was very innovative and unique. Coming from a Vietnamese background, it was interesting to see so many flavours of home elevated into fine dining dishes.
