Beautiful place, lovely ambience and decor. Service was so slow though, we waited ages to order a drink, even though we were given the menus as soon as we arrived. Had to ask for a drink, and later to order food ( even though we had the menus already), then had to ask again for desserts) food was delicious and the one staff member was very nice, but obviously run off his feet. We were going to the theatre closeby
