Fantastic food. Ordered the “tapas bag” to do final preparations at home. Very good instructions and the food turned out amazing. Very nice packaging and the courses mixed well together, you won’t feel hungry for days after this (plenty to go around). Very nice staff and service when ordering was terrific.
Not very accessible if you are bound to a wheelchair though which knocks off a few points.
