The experience was very positive on all counts except the noise level. We went to celebrate our anniversary and couldn’t have a conversation with each other without shouting.

Our server Yasmin was very welcoming and ensured that our service was spectacular. The food was amazing and was served in very large portions. The steak was a little bit too rare from medium rare and the fries were at times soggy. We also ordered the chocolate cake which was humongous, could easily serve more than two but it was also a tad bit dry. Great experience overall and will be coming back!
