One of the most exciting menus I have seen in a long time and the actual food was all first-class. Everything is fresh and delicious and you can tell that they are genuinely passionate about good food. Looking forward to going back to sample more of the menu and daily specials. One of the best restaurants I have been to. Thank you.
