   Food was great. Appreciate gluten free items but they need to be a little better at looking after coeliac customers. Service was a little nonexistent after the initial order.

   The brunch sampler was amazing……every bite was delicious. The flavours of every bite was soooo good. Service to match the food quality too. Well worth it!

   Had the $85 Valentine’s dinner with my wife. 5-course meal which had some really well-planned dishes. The sablefish was delish, the gnocchi & the chicken tikka was also great.

   There was a fixed 5 course menu on Valentines Day for $85. A little pricey but it’s Valentines Day so I understood. I took my wife and daughter. Service was great. However, I missed the fine print and we were each charged an additional $15 for picking the steak option for our fifth course. So now it’s $100 each plus a bottom of wine, tip and taxes the bill came to almost $500!

   Are those the server was trying very hard to improve service the food quality was just not to my expectations. Food quality is not well polished the chicken Wellington is very filling and greasy. Huge portion though. Very disappointing with the dessert as it’s supposed to be some kind of tiramisu crêpe but turned out to be a gigantic pancake with some tiramisu filling in the middle and a big blob of fresh cream on the top it’s kind of like Dennys food or cafeteria food. Will not recommend

   We had such a good time! We are from the Dine Out menu and I had the vegetarian options which were delicious. Would love for that butternut squash soup to be a regular on the menu moving forward! Our server was really kind and the restaurant itself is beautifully decorated.

   The food is always outstanding in this beautiful quaint restaurant. Our dining room server was excellent. It wasn’t until we were moved to the bar that the service declined. It was fixed which was satisfactory to me. I will for sure be back.

    Everything was amazing. I would suggest for the prawns in the shakshuka to be less salty 🥰
