Was in Tuesday night with a couple of work friends. Well impressed. Espresso martinis were so good, yes there were multiple. Food and presentation very high standard. Then the dessert, well thats when it kicked into high gear. Suffice to say multiple made the trip home. Fantastic experience, loved it

Stumbled upon this little gem and enjoyed the loveliest patisserie treat and violet cocktail made by Antonio. Great service, beautiful place!

Zoe

This is a place I think about and crave a lot after eating there. If you want top class food and stylish place to eat. This is it. From pick your own sushi, dreamy modern desserts, classic menu dishes with an Asian twist and don’t forget the breath taking cocktails. Everything is appealing to the eye and tastes that live you wanting more.
