We had a show at the Olympia theatre so we looked for a resto nearby. I came across this resto on Google & read the excellent reviews. IT LIVED UP TO THEM. Super cute & cozy atmosphere. Staff was very welcoming, engaging & friendly. As per the reviews, I had to try the celery root carpaccio & it was phenomenal ! For dinner, we had the steak frites & keela burger which were both amazing. Highly recommend & we will be back !

Got introduced to this place by a friend & absolutely loved my experience. Came back with my boyfriend, who also fell in love with it. The ambiance is cozy & inviting, perfect for an evening with friends or a date night. The cocktails were creative & tasty. As for the food, everything was absolutely delicious, but the highlights for me were the celery root carpaccio & the salmon tartare - both to die for! Highly recommend this spot!
