If you are looking for perfectly cooked steak and ribs that are falling off the bone,this is the place to be! Their chicken is also moist and packed full of flavour. We ordered the platter and boy oh boy! Its just yummo! Excellent customer service too! The staff were all nice and looked after us really well.

Es war für uns einwenig zu laut. Mussten uns laut unterhalten damit wir uns verstanden haben. Was aber sehr oft in allen anderen Lokalen auch der Fall ist.

The meat platters we had looked great but were very over cooked resulting in dry tough pieces.
