    Food was excellent. We got a table overlooking the river which I think was actually the best table in the house. The food was fresh and delicious and our server was outstanding along with the rest of the front of house staff. Will definitely be back.

    What a wonderful experience. It is a beautiful place and although rather spacious it is calm and relaxed and not noisy at all. The service was attentive without being too much and truly friendly and welcoming. The food was amazing: Steaks cooked to perfection, truffle fries to die for, delicious Tuna tatare as a starter and a lovely bottle of Littorai One Acre. We cannot praise this place highly enough. It truly is outstanding.
