    Overall I personally did not see the hype. I think I expected more. The main menu very limited, so not much of a variety. The fired tuna sushi was very nice. The fashion sandwiches and Californian rolls very average, give this is a seafood place I expected more. The chicken, wings, nice tender and juicy. We had the kingklip, and deep sea hake the portion size we quite large. Favour's are very basic. I think the place is more for social media vibes, but my experience based on taste i was rather underwhelming. I do understand us being inland makes it difficult to stock a variety but based on the taste of what we had, seems the flavor profile is similar, when it comes to ordering the fish. Though the tiger giants looked amazing, but unfortunately im unable to eat prawns anymore.

    Visited for the first time and had a wonderful experience. The langoustines were a bit on the small side, but they were incredibly fresh and flavorful. Service was attentive and friendly throughout the night. Don't skip the Peppermint Crisp dessert—it was absolutely divine! I can’t wait to go back and try the fish. Highly recommended.

    The food was tasty & well presented, although on the pricey side. Good for celebrations & special occasions. Atmosphere was lovely even though seating a bit too close to hear the conversations on neighbouring tables. Would return again
