The food was great, the service was amazing and every one was very helpful had a good understanding of the food and gave good recommendations. We sat close to the kitchen and i could see in on how they prepared some of the food and i found that to be very interesting and beautiful to watch. Loved the experience.

Sat right at the end near the kitchen so very noisy. Waitress wasn’t listening and ordered us bread instead of oysters which we still had to pay for. Oysters then came out with our main meal but the main meal was cold and food was pretty poor. No free drink/money off the bill offered, expensive too.

The great wait staff can’t make up for the shortfalls that have continued to creep in over time. We hadn’t been back for a while and thought we would try again. Unfortunately the same hit-and-miss, inconsistent output from the kitchen continues. An hour between starter and main, enough time to basically finish the bottle of red we had selected for both courses, then one of two mains plates arrives cold… Didn’t even stay for desert 🫤 Sad to see such a previously top venue deliver such a poor experience.
