    Lovely place, it was our first time there, the host was very friendly and helpful, service was nice and quick. Food was really nice as well, especially the starters, the dynamite prawns and chicken are a must have! For the mains, the Chicken Parmesan could have been better, the chicken was a little dry and the topping wasn't as creamy as other Chicken Parmesans I've had. Overall a great place to go and I'd highly recommend!

    The restaurant was quiet, and we were served quickly, but service levels dropped, which was a shame. The food, while decent, wasn't quite right, and a couple of dishes had to be rectified as they weren't what we ordered. It all took much longer than we had hoped, given the place wasn't very busy. It was perfectly pleasant overall but not sure if we will rush back.

    We was squashed into a corner booth due to another family having taken extra room whilst seating on the booth behind us - no one said anything! We spent the entire evening having the our seat being kicked from behind by the children - who was also climbing all over the seats and wall partition at 1 point - no one said anything! On leaving we did highlight our awful experience for which we was told we should of said something to the staff as they could hear it but could work out where it was coming from….. they must of been blind and deaf as it was pretty obvious 🤷‍♀️. The food was ok but we have had nicer ambience and food elsewhere in Stirchley.
