My partner and I visited The Black Grape on Christmas Eve and had the pleasure of trying their festive menu. It was an unforgettable experience! The attention was absolutely wonderful; the staff was incredibly kind and attentive at all times, creating a warm and welcoming holiday atmosphere. Coming from Spain, we were excited to try something new, and the festive menu exceeded all our expectations. Every dish was a delightful surprise, full of unique flavors that were completely different from what we're used to back home. Each bite was crafted with care and truly captured the spirit of the season. If you're looking for excellent food and top-notch service, especially during the holidays, The Black Grape is the place to go. Highly recommended!

I made a reservation at Huxley's so I could have breakfast with my mother. What a great discovery. Everything on the menu looked so good, we had to call on a staff member to advise us! I finally had eggs bennies Florentine and my mom had the Huxley. The hot chocolate was delicious. The space is warm and the staff very welcoming.
