    Our table was a party of 5 people. When we received the bill it had a service charge of 12.5% added in by pen. The restaurants web-site and menu did not alert us to an added service fee, which amounted to an additional €46. I have heard of such fees over 6 guests. We were caught off guard. We won’t be back. Dissapointing☹️

    Specifically yesterday was all great. The food was on another level, the steaks were perfectly cooked and delicious. We had rib eyes, fillets, and chateaubriands. All on point. We will come back many times

    The food was amazing, and the staff were very attentive despite it being a busy night. We opted for the neighbourhood menu and got to try almost everything since we were dining as a group. Every dish was delicious and beautifully presented, and the lava cake was absolutely amazing! The only thing I’d comment on is the wine menu. The pricing was a little misleading, as the bottle price we thought we were getting apparently wasn’t listed. I’d recommend double-checking the drinks menu or asking the staff for clarification before ordering. Overall, we had a great experience and will definitely be back to try their à la carte menu
