    We recently visited this restaurant as a group of eight for a business dinner and had a very good experience overall. The service was efficient and professional, with staff ensuring our group was well looked after throughout the evening. The menu featured a great range of options, and the food was beautifully presented and full of flavour, each course was consistently well-prepared and enjoyable. The ambience is stylish and polished, making it a fitting choice for business or formal dinners. While the setting is elegant and comfortable, it does have a more structured feel, which might not offer quite the warmth or intimacy some diners might be looking for, particularly if seeking a more romantic or relaxed dining atmosphere. Overall, this is a very good restaurant that delivers on quality, presentation, and service. It’s a solid option for professional gatherings or special occasions where a refined, well-executed dining experience is desired.

    I had the 600g ribeye and it was absolutely phenomenal — hands down the best steak I’ve ever had. Cooked to perfection, full of flavour, and incredibly tender. The food overall was top-notch and the service was just as impressive. Highly recommend this place. I’ll definitely be back!
