What a beautiful hidden gem. The food was delicious, venue was also stunning. Great atmosphere in the restaurant, lively but not too loud. Wish we had discovered this sooner as such a good go-to restaurant. We had 3 mains, 2 cocktails and a starter and all were very reasonably priced for good portions. Will definitely be returning many times.
