    The experience to enter and be at this club was fantastic. The atmosphere is just amazing. The music was so good we were often mentioning during our time that the music is just so well matched with the ambience. Food was good, despite other reviews I was afraid it may not be good, but it was done well and to a good standard. All of the drinks we tried were nice and well balanced, comparably to other places we’ve been this was among the better ones. , Service was outstanding, the lady that served us visited our table frequently upon just eye contacting her and was very sweet and professional. I can only recommend this place. We’ll be back.
