La nourriture est délicieuse & pleine de saveurs. Bien que les portions puissent sembler petites au premier abord, elles sont suffisantes pour satisfaire notre appétit. Le service est courtois & l'ambiance est superbe.

First time visit on a whim. Not much of a greeting. Nice decor. Menu impossibly hard to read. Drinks & food slightly overpriced but good. Service was very sub par. They seemed very disorganized. Waited for much of our order. Was added two items we never ordered on our bill that we initially paid for. Got reimbursed. No sorry for the mistakes. Left full, but overall disappointed. If you want my loyalty, you need to do more to stand out...not gonna go back.
