    Had such a stunning evening! Came for the cocktails but was completely blown away by the food and atmosphere. The security personnel walked us to our Uber which was a lovely gesture.

    The ambience was lovely, and the welcome cocktail was absolutely delicious! We tried the zucchini fries, duet of tacos, pork belly, and Waldorf salad. While everything was presented beautifully, the flavours didn’t quite stand out. The batter on the zucchini fries was a bit too thick and sweet, the tacos were okay, and the pork belly could’ve been a little more tender. The Waldorf salad was refreshing but not particularly memorable. Overall, a pleasant experience with great atmosphere and drinks, though the food could use a bit more balance and refinement.
