Had an amazing experience last night. The food is some of the tastiest we have ever had and overall an amazing restaurant. Credit to the kitchen for turning such flavoursome food out for its customers - outstanding. Also a shout out to our server - tenkgu. I think I spelt that right but he is a credit to the restaurant and his passion for the food was obvious. Just makes the experience all the more special. Many thanks from Michael and Denise Baker.
