What an amazing venue to have dinner at, not only for the phenomenal dining experience but the food here is truly art.  Every plate is artfully put together, the flavours thoughtfully considered for truly a unique experience.  Every bite was an explosion of flavour.  Our tasting menu was called "ode to the tomato" and every course had an element of tomatoes.  The service is outstanding, the staff are warm and welcoming and the ambiance is beautiful.  The chef and staff were also able to accommodate my dietary allergies very easily and at last minute's notice too.  I highly recommend coming here.  Just as a heads up, the portions are smaller than the standard North American fare but for me, that is not a bad thing because I was able to thoroughly enjoy the entire meal and all the courses in the tasting menu.  Thank you Chef for a wonderful evening and an amazing dinner to remember!

Whilst Liana and Ilona are in the restaurant with a lot of expertise on wines and food.

Overpriced wanne-be chique. Saw them pouring two bottles of wine together and serve it as a new bottle. Wine served at wrong temperature. Dessert wine served as aperitif... Miniature portions, bland taste. Friendly lady of the house though.
