The food here was absolutely incredible! I came for the Thanksgiving dinner, and everything exceeded my expectations. The turkey was perfectly moist, and the ham was delicious. From the starters all the way to dessert, there wasn’t a single thing I didn’t absolutely love. Highly recommend it!

Fabulous experience & Excellent service/ambience. From the moment we got seated, all staff and Sophia specifically made us feel very welcome and ensured we understood the vegetarian variations of the delicacies. Absolutely loved the truffle pizza and the tiramisu and had to order a second one before the night got over. Will definitely recommend and revisit ourselves.
