   Beautiful building. Great food. Wasn’t just so atmosphere felt flat. So many staff but they weren’t doing anything and weren’t proactive - e.g. left to refill our glasses from the bottle. Music was deafening and repetitive.

   I took my girlfriend for her birthday meal and we didn’t not have a good experience. Our waiter was really rude and we felt rushed from the beginning. We were given no time at all to decide what we wanted and when we asked for a few minutes to decide he rolled his eyes at us and walked away. Awful service, would NOT recommend!

    I’ve given this restaurant 3 stars for a few reasons. Let’s start with the positives: it’s an absolutely beautiful building, the decoration, tables, lighting etc… is all amazing, and really does feel upmarket and lovely. The service is also amazing, you feel so so welcomed by all of the staff. Now onto some negatives: the staff can be too friendly to the point where 3 people asked do we want drinks when we had already ordered, however we took this as just them being overly nice and thoughtful. We did feel a bit pushed sometimes to overspend, for example on water for the table, starters, extra sides and alcohol. And when we said no, we felt like we were mocked. Now onto the food itself: if it was half the price I would be writing a better review, but for £22 for a pasta dish that wasn’t even cooked, I wouldn’t recommend. Overall, I would probably return for drinks but no more. It was also my birthday when we visited and I noted this on our booking, we saw other tables receiving special treatment for this, but nothing for us. Thank You
