Congratulations on your staff! We love coming here because of Ned! He is incredibly friendly and always makes our evenings special. His customer service skills are outstanding, and he makes everyone feel welcome, valued, and happy. He is a true gem, and that's why this place feels so special! The place is quite enjoyable, particularly on Fridays and Saturdays when a live band entertains the crowd.

Our waiter was absolutely lovely but the food was average at best. I don’t know if it’s the same owners as Heidi, but the food (and drinks) there was amazing. Tapajax unfortunately not so much. This was more of an average beige banquet that lacked flavour (croquettes, tortilla) with the more premium dishes overcooked (octopus, pork belly). Overall was disappointed.
