    Beautiful setting, great service. I went fot the sirloin on the bonded which sadly was over cooked and a LOT of sinu. Everyone else's food was brilliant, my daughter said its the best burger shes ever had. Will definitely go back. I didnt send the steak back as was my daughters birthday and we were all having such a good time, I didnt want to ruin the evenings vibe. Will recommend. Im sure my steak was a one off.

    Really loved our dinner here on Saturday! The restaurant is really vibey and has a great atmosphere. The food was all absolutely delicious, the combinations were interesting and each dish felt like a lot of care had been put into it. I loved everything so can’t even pick out one dish to recommend. Nicole was our waitress and she was fantastic and very helpful in sharing gluten free options. Overall was a very enjoyable evening and I’d highly recommend a visit!!

    Our Flank Steak was tasty and the pepper sauce incredibly good. We had to return our chips because they were covered with salt and not eatable. The replacement chips were soaked with oil. The cheesecake was not fresh and definitely not made within the last one or two days. Notable was that all our waiters were very accommodating and very friendly

    We had high hopes for our visit, but unfortunately, our experience left us quite disappointed. Firstly, the sparkling wine we originally ordered was not available. When we opted for a simple alternative—water with fresh lime—we were served a lime cordial instead, which was not what we requested. Additionally, we had a confirmed reservation for 3:00 PM, yet we were only informed at 3:30 PM that the restaurant would be closing at 4:00 PM. This gave us very little time and created a rushed, uncomfortable atmosphere to place and enjoy our order. The service from both the server and the manager fell short of expectations. There was a lack of communication and hospitality that impacted the overall experience. That said, the ambience is lovely, and the springbok carpaccio was truly phenomenal—beautifully prepared and flavorful. Unfortunately, the burger did not meet the same standard and was quite underwhelming. We hope this feedback is taken constructively, as this space clearly has potential but would greatly benefit from improved service and clearer communication with guests.
