What Travellers Say
Reviews Summary
Diners consistently praise the innovative and delicious food, with many highlighting the excellent wine pairings and attentive service. The restaurant's ambiance and modern design are also frequently mentioned as positives. However, some guests have noted slow pacing between courses and occasional inconsistencies in service, impacting the overall value proposition for some.
"Amazing food, with reasonable price. The interior decoration is lovely as well, with an open kitchen so the guests can see what’s going on in the kitchen area. Interesting wine collection from Austria.
The cutlery is beautiful, making the dining experience even better."
Catherine Z.
"What can I say other than wow? Not only were the dishes amazing, but the wine pairing for each one was also perfect! To top it all off, the amazingly hospitable restaurant members that made us feel welcomed and most importantly, safe. We didn't get the names of the staff but each one of you who interacted with us that night was amazing, so thank you for making our experience enjoyable. We'll be back soon 😊"
Azhar Ahmad
"Food is really well cooked and tasty. Service is casual and minimal (the manager was really warm and nice), yet the experience somehow fell short and the value proposition didn’t seem very attractive as a whole.
We arrived early, so I suggested we could have a drink at the bar first. But the waiter said the table was ready so we thought if we could start early, we could leave early.
How wrong were we!
We went for a tasting menu of 6 course and the wait time between courses was just unreal. We had to wait almost at least 20 mins between each course and the longest one was 45 mins (we had a 12 course menu from another restaurant the night before at a comfortable pace and that took less time, just to give you some perspective).
Some really really tasty dishes in mix and some dishes were okay. None of them were worth the wait though."
