The staff were welcoming and the food was excellent. We loved our private space where we could pull the curtains across.
It was a little bit cold in the room

The venue was perfect. It was very well suited to the likes to the friend we were celebrating. The food was impressive, everything served was really good. Staff were efficient. Special shoutout to Sasha who helped us organise everything. Communication was smooth, nil complaints at all.
Food was delicious but could’ve been better if the main course portions were bigger.
