a week agoHad a pleasant experience dining at this restaurant. The food presentation is nice and the taste is above standard, especially prawn tartare and duck confit. Moreover the service is pleasant, just probably slightly longer waiting time.

a month agoOverall experience was good. We pre-ordered our meals, and the wait time was very reasonable since starters were served promptly. We tried several main courses; while most were delicious, the lamb was a bit of a miss for us. The spices didn't quite mask the gamey scent, though that may be down to my family's sensitive palates. The absolute standouts were the Truffle Chicken Roulade and the Pan Seared Salmon—both were excellent, as was the food presentation. Service was top-notch throughout the evening. Two minor frustrations to note: parking is a nightmare, and they do not provide complimentary plain water. It’s a bit of a head-scratcher why a restaurant of this caliber doesn't offer free water. Also we loved the open kitchen concept.
