    昨日が美味しかったので、2日続けて頂きました。 昨日がコースだったので、今日はアラカルトで被らないように注文しました。 ほんとに何を食べても美味しい店です。 スタッフの気遣いも、とても良いお店です。

    Food and drink was fantastic. The cheese wheel pasta was why we went but we actually preferred the other menu items better (Carbonara was amazing!!).

    My husband and I had a lovely dinner where we choose the 4 course meal with the wine pairing. It was delicious and will always come back.

    Normal experience. Menu changed slightly but same stuff as always. Same anniversary dessert m, which I don’t understand. The edible sugar aesthetic is like a kindergarten art and the sugar itself is so thick it stick ms to your teeth.
