Okay sort of place - lacking in atmosphere, and slightly average food. Nice service. I think it's a daytime tearoom that's trying to leverage the real estate by running as an evening restaurant, and it shows. more

At the prices you pay for this place, good service is expected. No attention, lack of cutlery, food overpriced for the the quality. Comments on the food quality was not taken too well. I wouldn't recommend this place. Captive market - go elsewhere. more
