Went there with a party of 5.
The food was great but the steaks weren't worth the price at all. They weren't that good. The salad, noodles & fish related dishes were great!
The service wasn't that good… don't get me wrong, the server was kind & wonderful, but he was the only one for the whole evening. We got our drinks after our we had finished our appetizers.. which shouldn't happen in restaurants.

The drinks & the bang bang shrimps were great! But the steak had more nerves than meat, I had to send my plate back. We were10 ladies & 8 of us had issues with the food. The service was quite long, I feel like the poor waitress was almost by herself. I wont be back.

It is a nice cozy place but sitting in the middle of the restaurant feels a bit too snug. The food missed the mark unfortunately. The General Tao chicken was not good at all, too hard & dry. The beef tartare was lacking acidity or sourness, the mushroom truffle dumplings were tasteless, salmon tataki was overcooked & they were out of oysters (which was the only reason we went there in the first place). The server did everything she could but she was swamped & the only one for the entire place. All in all, I think I would go back for the drinks & atmosphere but the food was not something I would go back for, unfortunately.

I took my wife here for her birthday, Thursdays is ladies night & we were met with a free glass of prosecco. The decor is beautiful, the tuna tataki was delicious. The best part of our experience was the servers, Aïcha & Valentina! They made sure my wife felt special, they were attentive & very friendly. Valentina knew the menu & drink pairings very well. They decorated my wife's birthday cake plate & sang for her. Thanks to these lovely ladies & delectable cocktails & food, we will most certainly be back.

Also we got 20% off our bill as it was the ladies night deal.
