Really nice dinner, the staff were excellent and they served us quickly. My only suggestion would be an improved dessert menu, as the majority of items currently involved some liquor, coffee or alcohol component.

We were a group of 10. We had the set menu which I am always wary of as it is very difficult to serve 10 people with great food. However I do believe the food at Kirbie is outstanding and it did not disappoint. Food was exceptional. Enough for everyone timed perfectly and demolished by all. Thank you Kirbie amazing afternoon.

Was greeted by the friendly staff. Steaks were cooked to perfection - we were probably the worst table for the chefs with all different types of cooks on our meat. Great atmosphere and staff always checking back to see if we need anything

    We had a lovely experience at Officina Gastronomica Italiana. The food was fresh, with a great selection of Italian dishes and wines. The service was friendly and professional.
