    From the beautifully crafted cocktails to the perfectly plated tapas, everything is well thought out and a full experience. Definitely a MUST!

    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.

    Overall a lovely experience. The place was lovely with great ambience. The zucchini fries, fish were a bit bland & I personally I did not enjoy them.
