Wow—what an experience! This small, cozy spot is all about sharing plates and incredible flavors. The menu is full of standouts, from wild salmon sashimi to my personal favorite: Portobello mushroom with paneer—absolutely delicious. Sorry for the lack of photos; I was too busy enjoying the food and the company. You’ll just have to experience it for yourself!

Always my favourite place to celebrate and meet up with good friends! An elegant setting, fabulous food, wonderful staff and service…..

We had an amazing time, staff was great, explained the menu, had recomendations and helped with everything. Really going back again.

The food was delicious and beautifully presented. I highly recommend the raspberry cheesecake! It is so pretty that I almost didn’t want to eat it…but was sooo glad when I did! Great service too.
