We had a table for 2 in the bar area which was a bit noisier than when we’d had a table in the dining area of smallish rooms (which we liked better.) Food was amazing and inspired. They were willing to put spicier sauce in the side for me which was appreciated! Staff was great. A special set with choices so we chose to get different items to try and all were so good!

This is like dining in a private home. The setting is lovely. Quiet, nicely furnished and comfortable. The staff is efficient and friendly as well as knowledgeable about the menu. Cocktails were perfectly prepared. The food is gourmet quality, served warm and well seasoned. Definitely worth many visits!
