Delicious Mediterranean food beautifully served. The pulpo ala gallega reminded me of being in Galicia, tasty and authentic. The prawns in garlic butter were just gorgeous, perfectly cooked not a second more. As a main I had salmon & black caviar on a bed of mash potato which looked good and tasted even better. It was a great experience for a foodie like me. Highly recommend it, truly fantastic!!

I really enjoyed this restaurant. It's a really beautiful space. The staff are very friendly and really accommodated us deapite showing up half an hour early. The food really exceeded my expectations. The Argentinian Sirloin was tended and cooked to perfection. Had Sangria and it was beautifully made. I live close by so will definitely be visiting again.

Atmosphere here is great, love the decor. Service was very prompt but it felt a bit too overwhelming with a specific server which kept hovering over us... The peppers, tuna tartare and garlic prawns were average at best but the octopus was really nice. Love the balance between the spice and creaminess (of the octopus).

All the seafood was fresh and flavourful - calamari, mussels and the octopus was exceptionally nice. The coffee crème brûlée flavour was well balanced and tasty. Could have used a plate with equal depth and deeper plus smaller. As the heat from the torch warmed up the thinner edges. Also crust could have been darker to have better crack. Bread should sit on the pass for less time to get that fresh flavour. Overall, very lovely food, stylish interior and friendly & professional staff

See my bio for a referral code to The Fork app (their process of getting Yums for money off meals is fantastic BTW so if you’re not already using this app, get using it!) The restaurant looks lovely and at first I thought we were a bit under-dressed for it but the vibe was casual and very friendly so this wasn’t a problem. Bonus – they had a LIVE jazz trio performing too! Very cool! The food was fantastic, as were the drinks (I didn’t picture the Old Fashioned’s here but I got through 3 of them!) Service was amazing and our waitress (a young lady from the US) was awesome – she accidentally forgot one portion of chunky chips which I had to ask for and she ended up comping us 4 desserts! Totally not necessary but really impressive service! I loved my sea bass main course with side of mushrooms and broccoli (it comes with a salad) and I will definitely be back for this again! I also loved the garlic butter kind prawn starter I ate and would order this again too. My dessert was the Tiramisu but I am coming back for that Turkish Coffee Creme Brulee!
