    Had an excellent meal here last night. Lovely food and service. Our server was both informative and attentive. We brought a bottle from our cellar to have with our dinner for a modest corkage fee and the server even decanted it. 👍🏻

    We decided to do the tasting menu, best decision of the evening! Every dish we had was different, perfectly portioned to sample most of the à la carte menu. Flavours were bright and perfectly balanced. I can’t even choose a favourite dish. Excellent wine pairing recommendations as well. The service was exceptional, a perfect balance of attentiveness and allowing us time to savour our meal. Highly recommend!
