    Exceptional service with a waiter with a great personality who entertained my clients beautifully. The food was beautiful. The only downside was the noise so glad we were at the end where the doors were open.

    Food and service was great, waitress was respectful and patient while we waited for the rest of our table to arrive. Food and drinks came out quickly and the setup inside was well put together.

    We did the feed me for 2 people and enjoyed all the dishes, lots of great flavours and varieties. As a main the chicken dish was on the small side so an extra dish would have been good. The service was very good, well run restaurant.

    This is the second time I have been here and been served by the same person. Both were business lunches with a hard stop and both times they managed our food and drinks so well. Service was outstanding and the food was absolutely delicious. If you only go here for one thing, get the baked feta. You will not regret it.

    Absolutely dreadful. Hard to imagine that this could pass as serious dining. My wife and I took friends with us and, frankly, I was embarrassed. From the outset, the noise level is just completely overwhelming - even the waiting staff have to keep asking you to repeat things because no one can hear hear anything. But the real stumbling block is that the restaurant continually emphasizes that the plates are for sharing, but when our meal arrived there was hardly any food at all. The Portuguese chicken consisted of two chicken legs; try dividing that between four people! This is only food for sharing if you really want to lose weight!
