We booked in for an early table before our Kylie concert Saturday night. The hosts were super attentive as it was a hot night and we needed the refreshments. Food was lovely just interesting enough for us out of towners. The hosts accommodated all our food quirks as well. Thank you, you helped make our preciously rare night out that much better.

Went here for the first time and it was a great experience. The house-made drinks were my main highlight, especially the pomegranate and chilli drink. The steak and the fish of the day were great too. The atmosphere was nice. Friendly and attentive service. I'd recommend this place.

It was great having you both in on the terrace, you are right about the pomegranate and chill margarita :)
