We booked five for Christmas day lunch/dinner. It was an awesome experience. The food was great. We were welcomed when we arrived and they slotted us into an earlier reservation. We have nothing but positive things to say about the server… We would definitely go again!

Lots of bold flavours in with the fully plant based menu. I really enjoyed the paring of chocolate sauce with a savoury dish and a very and creamy smooth cheese sauce. The arepas were very fluffy. The drinks and desert were also amazing, I could definitely taste the salt in the ice cream which really brings out more flavour

Came here for the second time and it did not disappoint. We had the feed me menu and we were stuffed towards the end. The entire experience was made more memorable by our lovely server Katherine! She was so friendly and attentive and made the entire experience more pleasant. Will definitely be returning for a third time!
