The food was excellent, the presentation and theatrics great. Menu is very comprehensive, almost too much so, wide spectrum of dishes to choose from. Decor is great but noise levels very high (<100dB), acoustics are dreadful. Service was very good, well trained staff - until the lights were turned on and basically had to leave before we had finished our drinks. Left a sour taste after a pleasant evening
