    Absolutely gorgeous food. Took advantage of the 20% discount offer as the menu is quite expensive. But it was well worth it, the prawns were to die for and the pork dish I had was delicious!

    This is a mixed review. It is fine dining, food is exquisite and the service is excellent. But the ambiance, table and table arrangements don’t quite live up to the fine dining experience. Wine list is vast but missing well known wines, music needs attention. The place needs improvement on furniture and cozier interior set up.

    Each taste is a revelation. Not a restaurant where the food is a long monotonous sameness.
