Reviews
The wait staff were fabulous and the chef what can I say - more than incredible. It’s a dining experience we’ll remember as uniquely fabulous. The food was delicious and we left pleasantly perfectly filled up.
Each course was paired with a lovely matched wine. Option to not choose the wines also. I just can’t choose which course I liked the best.
We look forward to retuning to the new venue. Thanks all for our fabulous lunch!
