The service was outstanding, good banter, excellent knowledge very engaging, the food was extremely high quality. Everything we ate was an adventure for the tastebuds. Titillatingly good. Each mouthful of each meal was somehow as good if not better than the sample before. The paired drinks were also delightful. A truly unforgettable night, and one that we’ll reflect on until the next tasting.

The food was decent and the ambience was nice. Service was however under par, there was no one at the front when we were looking to order and basically waited 5 minutes but other than that the food came out quick after ordering and taste was good too.
