    I showed the place to my friends who have never been there and now they are very grateful to me for opening their eyes to lovely food so I guess I must thank you for that also

    Overall really like the look and feel of the restaurant however, for the quality of food I do think it’s a bit overpriced. One of the dishes we had was the prawn pasta and it was not very good, the prawns also were big and had the shells on so we had to use our hands in the pasta to take them off and use a knife to cut them up. There also wasn’t a bowl provided for us for the shells and we had to ask for one.
