The roasted jackfruit starter was very good. The wagyu beef rib could have done with a bit more flavour for the rice

The views were top notch, we enjoyed the ceviche, lobster dumplings, and black cod very much. Wine prices were obscenely high, service was good and friendly. Loved the dancers.

What a stealth surpise. This is one of the best restaurants I have ever eaten it. The food is simple but incredibly tasty and well prepared. The service is amazing. For me this is a restaurant of superlatives. It was pretty empty at lunch and open all day. I liked it so much I went two days in a row so I could try different things on the menu. Highly recommended
