We emailed the week before with a dietary restriction, and the team really delivered. Not only did the chef custom make a lactose free beef wellington which was the best thing we've ever eaten; the customer service was exceptional keeping us updated on anything that may need to be swapped and the options we had. This allowed us to truly enjoy the amazing experience we had. Thank you to al for accommodating us and showing so much care. The food and service are entirely worth the price.
