    The food unfortunately did not match the descriptions on the menu. I was rather disappointed as am a salt lover. The lamb had no flavor. The rojak salad was basically fruit salad. And the burnt tomato was tiny and too simple. We were warned about small plates but this was ridiculous for the prices. We did have amazing service from Damian.

    Liam our waiter was attentive and friendly. He managed our expectations with ease. The venue is wonderful, ambience was relaxing and staff in general were very friendly. Drinks options are limited and would go a long way by adding a few more options (especially soft drinks). The steak was some of the best we have had and the platter for two was much bigger than expected. All in all a wonderful experience
