We had a wonderful dining experience, restaurant is gorgeous food was so good and our waiter was outstanding , sorry I missed her name but she was from Lithuania, she looked after 4 of us so well, so pleasant and smiling. It got quite busy later and it was a little harder to get some ones attention but our lady was running from table to table doing her best and still smiling. Too much pressure on an excellent member of staff. She’s a gem, don’t loose her. I have booked to return again in a couple of weeks it was so good.
