New to the concept of a set menu but enjoyed the ENTIRE experience! Wish the cocktails were in a bit larger glass for the price.

The menu is short, but Medium Rare does it well. The food and the good value draw all types - large family groups, people on dates, friend groups of men or women of all ages and backgrounds.
