6 of us went for a birthday party. Did the blind sharing. We were served by chef Blackie who was very engaging. One of our party was allergic to dairy. He and the team went beyond to accommodate. Food and service were excellent.

Culinary Euphoria- Another amazing dining experience with Chef Blackie! The dishes transcended us to Mexico and Thailand. Every dish was true artistry. If you are looking for a gastronomic haven, this is the spot. The menu isn’t just a list of dishes; it’s a carefully curated journey, guiding your senses through a series of exquisite creations. Exceptional service by the Chef himself.
