    The Ashta Cake was new and amazing. Not too sweet, just the right balance. Food is always good. Great taste and seasoning. Not dry or overcooked.

    The food was excellent. The service was attentive. A bit pricey but so is everything lately. The restaurant has an acoustics problem with the terrace just overwhelmingly loud. The Moroccan style lamb shank was perfect.

    The service was fantastic, the food was great, the ambience was very nice but it was very loud inside. Highly recommended if you don’t mind the noise from other tables
