Excellent service by Jackie T. Never missed a beat. Checked on our table multiple times and brought whatever was requested rather quickly. Considering how busy it was, sometimes service can go down, but not today. Thanks Jackie :)

I had an amazing experience at this restaurant! We came here to celebrate our colleague’s promotion, and it was the perfect place for the occasion. The food was absolutely delicious (fresh, flavorful) and beautifully presented. The staff were friendly and attentive, and the atmosphere was warm and welcoming. Highly recommended! I’ll definitely be coming back again soon.
