    Arrived on time. Had to wait 25mins after when I had booked my table to be seated. This happened 3weeks previously also. Tried to give benefit of doubt. Also tried to nudge me (after 20mins wait) to sit at bar as it was “slow” (I booked a table). When I declined, miraculously they found a table. Wanted to downgrade my experience in favour of more people. Not cool. Server was great as was the food. Need to sort out honouring commitments. Not a great experience.

    Wonderful food (short rib bologhnese, salmon, rib eye, spaghetti and meatball and Caesar) were all very good. The atmosphere peaceful and elegant. Huge selection of wines and specialty spirits which we did not partake in. Great service (Mattie). Great, great for very special occasions only because if the price point, but you will NOT be disappointed. Must try at least once.

    The food here was fabulous. Chicken Vesuvio, Caesar salad, Apple Fennel Salad, and Pasta Carbonara. All gluten free! And delicious! You can’t go wrong here. Wine list is also spot on.
