Food was excellent , no doubt . What ruins an experience is being told the time limit of the booking several times. This is such a horrible thing many mid level restaurants do and for that reason I never go back to places that put that pressure on . Such a bad habit that restaurants think it’s part of the norm but don’t realise what bad affect it has on their retention

Amazing food! Don’t like downstairs as much as upstairs. Very noisy! But overall excellent. My 18 yr old son and his girlfriend were ID’ed as they had cocktails. Didn’t realise that was a thing if they were eating with us old gimmers. No problems with it though!

Booking was easy and helpful staff over phone but upon arrival we were stopped by security guard from entering restaurant/had to wait outside the confines of the outdoor restaurant area/on street despite having reservation (for which we were already 10 minutes late) because there was a group of two or three customers already talking to the hostess inside. It didn’t seem necessary to be denied entry for that reason/didn’t feel welcoming. It wasn’t that busy so could’ve allowed us to queue nearer the entrance. Upon entering waitress took us to our table but didn’t welcome us, explain anything or offer water or drinks. Only one drinks menu was provided at the table for three people. Eventually, we had to catch the eye of the waitress to order. Waitress finally offered water and answered our question regarding recommendations. Food was good and portions reasonable albeit a bit overpriced. But we knew it was a high end venue so expected that. The unfortunate lack of welcome and quality of service did make the venue seem less high end/didn’t meet expectations. We were asked towards end if we wanted desserts and we said no, thank you. But waitress then brought out the dessert menu, put it on the table and said she’ll give us a few minutes to choose and come back. Felt pressured to spend more. We didn’t order desserts and left shortly after to have drinks elsewhere. Although the food and ambiance was good, the general welcome and service left much to be desired for a restaurant of such calibre. We were excited to celebrate our friend’s birthday there as we heard so much about the place but unfortunately felt disappointed.

The food was excellent especially the tacos. Service was good, efficient and polite. The ambience was ok but badly let down by the excessive volume of music making it almost impossible to talk with the people sitting right next to you. Also the music quality was below average. Finally it was expensive for the food and drink.
