Great but Pricey
Reviewed on Friday, 27 June 2008
I came here with my son Henry last year. It is a wonderful restaurant but certainly on the pricey side. Still, it's worth it for special occasions.

Incredible Dinner
Reviewed on Friday, 27 June 2008
Literally unreal experience. Goes down as one of the best meals and restaurants in my life. And it was even a while ago! The service was impeccable and so respectful; the atmosphere was just perfect and the food was to die for.
