    It was a wonderful experience from the food to ambience and service. Although the server mentioned when we asked him if the Arnold Palmer is refillable, he said yes but turned out not to be the case! Additionally, the interaction felt a little bit dry, lacking the warmth and friendliness that I would expect! But it did not ruin the experience, just a room for improvement.

    We go here for my wife's birthday which is on Christmas Eve. Not many places are open then and we really like the food and hospitality of AOC. Even though they don't take requests, they had a nice table for us indoors. It made it extra special to have carolers as well.

    Its a great place to spend a couple of hours and have a cheese plate.......however, despite having an encyclopaedic wine list - which is reasonably priced - the first 3 choices were not available and they were all Californian!! Disappointed. There must be much better wine bars available nearby.

    Everything we ordered was absolutely delicious! We started with the octopus and the caviar. While the octopus was decent, it was slightly overcooked and just okay. In our opinion, the Little Door Caviar was the standout starter—its flavor was far superior. For mains, the Branzino was perfection—crispy and flaky on the outside, tender and soft on the inside. The ribeye was equally fantastic, cooked beautifully and packed with flavor. We finished the meal with the crème brûlée, which was the perfect dessert—smooth, creamy, and with a perfectly caramelized top. The service was impeccable, making the evening truly special. We celebrated my friend’s birthday, and it was a memorable experience from start to finish. We’ll definitely be back!
