We went outside and sat on the couches and they were such good quality and there was. A server her name tag said Zara she was so sweet and so nice to us genuinly the best place i have ever been to definitly reccomended
9 of us had dinner and all agreed the it was 5star food. It was a Tuesday night so bar was quite. Recommend the hamhock bonbons.
We were so excited to use a €100 gift voucher here, but the night was a total letdown. The service was incredibly slow from the start—starters took 40 minutes, and even then, two were missing.
The main courses were even worse, arriving an hour after the starters. One dish was missing entirely, and it took four attempts just to get a server's attention. By the time the final meal arrived, everyone else had finished eating. To top it all off, two of our party have been extremely unwell since eating here. It’s devastating that what should have been a lovely gift ended in food safety concerns and poor organization. We won't be returning.
