A wonderful dining experience. Food was outstanding. Whilst in my opinion there was a lot of truffle, which is not to my taste, the restaurant offered to serve the sauce on the side and had made mash without truffle, so for those that don’t like this you are able to enjoy the whole menu. Perfect for couples as very romantic setting but happily go with a larger group as they can accommodate. Service was divine. A real treat as not cheap but ultimately value for money as every detail was looked at and perfected.
