    Incredible food! Service was quite average, we waited over an hour for our mains and we landed up eating very late! There was no apology or pre-warning that the meal would take that long!

    I just have to share the wonderful time my friends and I had at this lovely restaurant! From the second we stepped inside, the cozy vibe made us feel right at home. A huge shout-out to Novita, our waitress—she was simply amazing! Her warm smile and attentive service really made our meal special. I can’t give her enough praise—definitely a 10/10 for customer service! Now, let’s get to the food—it was all absolutely delicious! Every dish we tried was packed with flavor and looked gorgeous on the plate. You could really tell that each meal was made with a lot of love and care. We’re already excited to come back and bring our families along to enjoy this gem of a restaurant. It truly deserves all the love it gets!

    Had a great night. Food was excellent. Wine selection lovely. Service delightful when available. We arrived at a very busy time and drinks seemed to take a while to get going. It is a little bright and noisy in the space. Would still highly recommend.
