This was one of the best restaurants I've ever been to. Ranging from the service to the food to the cleanest toilets! The food was exceptional and the service just as good. Try the scallops - you wont regret! The waitstaff from bartenders to waiters were incredible. Congratulations to Simone for creating this restaurant. We will definitely be back next visit 😊

It was a very good experience, staff were lovely and kind in assisting myself and my partner to our table. The food was delicious and presented every well. The atmosphere was a little loud but that’s the environment of the restaurant. Would highly recommend.
