Second time going for an anniversary, staff are always so amazing. Had the Tutto Bene with wine and it was absolutely immaculate, especially the Wagyu tartare. Kitchen and staff are always so professional, we have a shellfish allergy and it never feels like a burden to to let them know. Atmosphere always amazing and intimate.

Worth booking 2 months in advance! We came here for our 10 year anniversary and were not disappointed. The Pork and Chilli Dumplings were to die for. The Wagyu skewers were some of the best beef I have ever tasted. The oysters with vinaigrette were delicious too! Highly recommend
