    The starters were phenomenal, I highly recommend the Nduja. The beef fillet was cooked to perfection and my only complaint was that I wish it was bigger. The sides were perfectly paired. The seabass spaghetti sauce was so delicious!! My only complaint was the desserts. The lemon posset was good but the minty icy topping tasted like a mojito which we didn’t enjoy. The chocolate torte was phenomenal but I didn’t think it paired well with the sorbet. It needed a classic vanilla or something more plain. Overall, I left stuffed and satisfied!

    I had an amazing day with my family. The food was delicious, and the service was the best I have ever had. Definitely recommend.

    My boyfriend and I made a reservation for the lounge, and when we arrived, the lady at the entrance asked for the name on the booking. My boyfriend provided the name, and we were seated at a table near the door, right next to the wine cellar. While settling in, I asked where the bathroom was and noticed that there was another seating area upstairs, which appeared to be the lounge. I went downstairs to tell my boyfriend, and we decided to call the lady to clarify if the upstairs area was indeed the lounge we had reserved. She confirmed that it was, but then mentioned that she had seen our booking, then I wondered why she still seated us downstairs. While we appreciated her offering to move us upstairs, there was no apology or acknowledgment of the mix-up. Once upstairs, the atmosphere was beautiful, but the service was slower than expected. While the location itself was lovely, the experience was slightly marred by the lack of communication and responsiveness. Overall, while the venue is gorgeous, the service could definitely be more attentive and organised, especially for new guests.
