Starters: I had the feta salad, absolutely loved it. My husband had oxtail balls and they were bland. We were also disappointed because scallops which were part of the menu were not available.
Mains: we had short rib and catch of the day. I'd recommend the short rib.
Dessert: espresso martini trifle and the sorbet and choc mouse. We waited for almost an hour for desserts. The brownie from the sorbet desert was rock hard, we hear the couple next to us ask the waitress for a knife 🤣. Our waitress got the kitchen to make us another plate of dessert to take home

7.3 Cuisine 6 | Service 8 | Atmosphere 8

The food was very delicious, I was a bit disappointed as not all the items on the set menu were available which is happening for the second time at this restaurant. However the food was very delicious.

The food was amazing. On the 4-course menu, the amouse bouche and starter were a wow. Main course and desert was also nice but the two i entioned earlier were outstanding
