    Delicious Valentine's experience. Everything was a delight including the music and the special Peruvian version of Tiramisu with a visit by the chef and owner. I'm not a fan of beef but the beef braised cheeks were soft and the sauce was hearty. All other dishes were filled with thoughtful, playful and melt-in-the-mouth flavour. The food was a set menu for this occasion and well worth the price. Wine is very expensive. A minor snag-the view is one of scaffolding and tarps as the building is under repairs but this will change in time. Temporary Signage is missing.

    We had such a great time! 3 generations. Myself, my Mom and my daughter. We were greeted and treated with genuine happiness and appreciation the entire time. Loved the tea menu and the knowledge of the waitstaff about the food and teas was outstanding. We were asked straight away about food allergies, which I feel is such an important question. We felt totally cared for. Magic moments created!! A memory the three of us will have forever.
