Consistently great quality food and a curated experience that was wonderful. A little expensive for the Valentines Day. But a great night that we enjoyed.

The food is amazing so is the service. Some may think it is a bit pricey but it’s about the experience as well as the food. We have been 3times and enjoyed every time

Our DDB 5-course degustation last night was again another fabulous experience with unsurpassed table service! My feedback on this occasion, is that the pork sirloin in our 4th course was a little overdone. While we very much appreciate & support that you are clearly open to hiring excellent waitstaff from varying nationalities with different dialects, we have all found it significantly difficult each visit, understanding each course presentation. That said, we will be back & are very much looking forward to potentially booking for the Valentine’s Day menu :)
