Disappointed with the steak advertised as a fillet but was a sirloin and a little fatty for me. The rest in the party were delighted with their choices. Overall a great night nevertheless

What a fantastic restaurant! The food was outstanding as was the service. Staff were so friendly and accommodating. When one of the sides was delayed it was offerred to us as complimentary. Sitting at the bar was so much fun. We could watch all the activities in the kitchen area and had instant access to staff if we needed to request anything. I would highly recommend this restaurant to anyone after great food and service.
