    Great spot for school meet-up with parents and kids. Just had a high school gathering at The Post with about 20 people—everything was set up on time and run smoothly, the staff was super attentive. It wasn’t quiet enough for easy conversation with a group this size. Definitely recommend!

    This was our first time here and we were impressed - the food and service were both excellent as we had heard. We ordered a variety of starters and menu items and everything was delicious. The only issue was the roti - we had a few orders and all were burned on both sides but everything else was so tasty we didn't say anything until the end when we told the waiter. He was totally nice about it and even brought us an extra order free of charge which was not burned and we definitely enjoyed that a lot! We will definitely be back to try more dishes.
