Amazing food and drinks, well worth the money. The overwhelming problem was the smoke created by the kitchen - we had to rush the end of our meal because we were choking on the smoke. It’s a slightly below ground restaurant so fixing up the ventilation from the kitchen (especially since they specialize in fajitas!) would make a huge difference
