Fantastic food! We got the $85pp Set Menu and everything was delicious - nice pacing in terms of the pauses between dishes. The mojito and Mocktail with pineapple juice and Yakult foam were both great palate cleansers. We got there unexpectedly early and they accommodated us without any issue - we got started early and finished early. 100% recommend!

Fantastic space for your group to have a catch up without the loud business of downstairs. The speaker was broken so we didn’t have music and it could do with a floor fan as the Saturday we were there it was 34deg and humidity was unbearable
