Friendly service. The cocktails were good. I ordered the pad sew with beef & unfortunately the beef to noodle ratio was very unbalanced. There was definitely not enough noodles for the amount of beef. It was mentioned that the staff in the kitchen was new… & I believe the portion was not reflective of the price of the dish. The taste of the food was delicious though.

Le poulet au beurre est un poulet cari coco, les portions sont petites, nourriture correct, sans plus. Les cocktails sont délicieux. Le service est acceuillant & rapide. Les serveuses sont souriantes. Cher pour ce que ça vaut vraiment.

Tout était parfait de A à Z. L'ambiance, l'esthétique, l'incroyable service hors-pair de notre serveuse (mention spéciale aux autres serveuses qui viennent aussi checker si tout est correcte même quand t'es pas leur table') & que dire de la bouffe & les cocktails ?! UN DÉLICE !

Très allergy-friendly, ils font vraiment sûr qu'il n'y aura aucun problème de ce côté-là.

Prix raisonnables pour la quantité, mais la qualité pourrait avoir une signature plus percutante. Les cocktails sont super bons & variés!

Food & service was quite good. The cocktails were not the best... Very watery & lacking flavour or proper mixing ingredients.
