Great food, fast service, cocktails were fabulous, staff friendly and efficient. But the music is so loud and makes it a tad difficult to carry a conversation. Maybe they could turn the music down to a background level whilst dinner service is happening (or in the dining area) and then turn it up later in the evening ? Just a thought.
