Visited for dinner with my partner last night and we were not disappointed.... Everything about our evening here was beautiful. We were seated at the bar and the bar man was so attentive, filling our water glasses and helping us decide what to eat! We ordered 5 share plates between us and rolled out the door- the carne cruda was a blinder and the chef's cheese plate was stunning. We will 100% be back, amazing spot for an amazing date night 😊

Amazing food and great drinks list. A 2 hour sitting as opposed to 1 hr 45 would have given us just that little bit extra time to finish the last drop of wine but understand that the tables need to be turned around for the next sitting :)

Food - excellent. The Crudo (tuna) was incredible. Our mains were both very good too. Service however was pathetic - plates collected, empty drinks at the time, no offer of another drink or dessert. Waited at least half an hour with no one coming near us so went and got menu ourselves and then had to wave someone over who was standing behind the bar chatting, who could not have seemed less impressed about having to take our order. After dinner we went to their bar downstairs, bar staff were useless and letting their friends skip the line. Will avoid in the future.

The dark interior and limited lighting made it quite difficult to see the meal & enjoy the food. It felt the restaurant was more of a nightclub than a dining destination. Upstairs may be different, but I feel the feel of the bar downstairs could have been better communicated via their website so you knew more what you were getting.

The only thing I can make a comment on is the seating arrangements. We were 4 people placed on quite a small table that seated 4, HOWEVER the table couldn’t fit all of our food on it and we were very closely next to each other. Not a great deal of space for 4 people when you want to enjoy your meal in comfort.

Great food and service was attentive and friendly. Unfortunately the acoustics in the restaurant makes conversation very hard. It was a struggle to hear my dining companion or the waitstaff without shouting.
