We really enjoyed the food. However, it was quite noisy and very busy. Being busy is a great indication that the place serves good food.

Never been to this restaurant before, had a recommendation from a friend. We were not disappointed, the food / service was excellent. The staff were very accommodating as it was my partners birthday, I supplied the cake and they did the rest even gave him a bottle of wine. Would definitely comeback and recommend 😀
