Had a lovely meal, three of us shared tapas so we got to taste everything, although the menu has been limited due to Covid over the last two years we still enjoyed everything we ate, look forward to going back once the full menu is reinstated.

Have been here several times and the food and service is always incredible. This last time the service suffered a little but it was obviously only because of the lack of staff- our waiter was brilliant, but he’s only one man. It will not stop us coming back.

Service was incredible as usual! The food and flavours were amazing. Excellent cocktails. One thing I’d fault is the food portions in the banquette - could have been a bit larger

The service was outstanding. The food I think was nice however I feel could incorporate some more Latin flavoured dishes. I am as well expecting more Latin dishes such as ceviche and pork dishes.

The worst choice of dishes on banquet menu I have ever had. The portions are ridiculous. You expect a greater variety of food and size of portions for $70. It was my birthday and I disappointed. I am not going to recommend this place. Sorry.

Food as always was amazing, especially the Cuban paella and chicken skewers. Special shout out to our server (French boy), we all loved his energy and how sociable he was with us. Food took a while but understandable since it was a busy night
