    We absolutely loved the food - the portions were perfect and everyone was well fed by the end of the night. Thank you for a great menu. One area our guests really were unhappy with was the level of service which we didn't appreciate especially given how exclusive the event was. A few times our waiter Sam failed to deliver drinks. One guest mentioned she asked for water had to go herself to the bar and the waiter looked at her while continuing to indulge his Gelato. In addition to the requat we made to print drink receipts separately. We had also had incident where one of the guest received less portion fries compared to another order and one who asked for fried sushi but wasn't given the non-fried. We also noted Sam would be hard tonreach and often called on other waiters to attend to us and when he did, he expressed an unwilling attitude and our guest even felt uncomfortable to correct him. While the food was great, the level of service was truly unpleasant. Luckily I checked, the recipes because we had 11 guests and we were almost chatged for 12. But our waiter was over eager to claim his tip. I don't have an issue paying but transparency and the level of service needs to be upheld. Thank you to the kitchen staff for their meals. Hats off to the chef!

    I celebrated my birthday here and had an amazing experience. The atmosphere was stylish and perfect for a special occasion. The staff were welcoming and attentive, and the food and drinks were absolutely delicious. Everything was well organised and made the celebration truly memorable. I would definitely recommend this restaurant and will be back!
