    Such a great experience. Loved sitting on the bar side. We went for 6:30 and while the restaurant side was busier the bar side wasn’t. Our server was Shane and he was fantastic. The food was amazing. I had the cucumber and yogurt appetizer and my husband had the Caesar salad. This was followed by my special which was a truffle and mushroom pasta. So delicious and beautiful presentation. My husband had the whole roasted branzino which was gorgeous. So crispy. He didn’t opt for a side dish. We then had the cheesecake for dessert, beautiful presentation and so yummy. I had a Negroni when we first arrived and my husband had a gin and tonic. Great cocktails even the ice was amazing. The wine we had with dinner was also wonderful although I don’t recall the name. It was such a great experience and we were very happy waddling back to our hotel after dinner. It was expensive but totally worth it.

    Fantastic moussaka - kudos to the chef. Service was impeccable. Lunch was an all round success. Note: There are very steep and numerous stairs to the washroom.

    Wonderful surprise! This small restaurant has fantastic food, highly recommended the Mushroom dish with Lion’s Mane mushrooms! Also, the twist on Trini Doubles were amazing! Adam at the bar made a wonderful cocktail based on our likes and dislikes and was a great host! Nothing but superlatives.
