Thank you soo much for the great hospitality! The whole team were amazing - every single member of the team were extremely friendly and welcoming. Our time slot was for 10:00PM which was close to closing time - they never made us rush anything, they let us take our time too. Waiters gave good recommendations and they were always attentive to see if we needed anything throughout our time there. The food was 10/10 - we had the lamb shank and sea bass - the lamb shank was cooked to perfection and the sauce compliments it perfectly and the sea bass was flavoured brilliantly and tasted amazing too. Thank you so much everyone! Will definitely recommend and will visit again in the future. Thank you so much for making it a memorable experience!
