    We arrived early for our booking and had drinks in the stylish upstairs bar before being brought to our table in the buzzing main restaurant area. We had the Christmas set menu, which had interesting and original mouth-watering fish, meat and vegetarian choices, including venison (which we chose), and thankfully not a turkey or ham in sight. The staff were very welcoming, and the service was speedy, and professional. This is a bright, sophisticated, modern restaurant, with excellent food and a great atmosphere. A great choice for date night or dinner with a group of friends. Highly recommended.

    From being greated at the door and seated shortly after on very busy night we had a perfect night. Frank our waiter was great and all the staff were very knowledgeable and helpful. The food was amazing and served in a timely manner as to not overwhelm us or overload the table and the margaritas were so tasty, especially the avocado one ..yum.
