Overrated. Overpriced. Cocktails are pretty and fancy without flavor, same with the food. The pretentious waiter left us with bad vibes. Sorry… rarely leave reviews but this experience sucked.

We have been visiting this place for several years, we loved it, but today sadly it was a horrible experience, they brought us chewy fried fish, very expensive, horrendous, but the worst thing was when we complained and they told us they couldn't do anything. Unfortunately not to return.

10/10! This was a wonderful restaurant. We had lunch here and everything was amazing. The food was delicious and beautifully presented. The service was exceptional. We can’t wait to come back and try more things from the menu! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
