SOME KIND WORDS FROM OUR CLIENTS

Best steak I had in my life! I ordered the New York Cut, with Parmesan mash and green Madagascan peppercorn sauce, medium. Absolutely mouth watering. Cooked to perfection, excellent balance on flavour from the steak and the sauces. The mash was light and fluffy. Excellent service. Definitely will be back there

First time dining over the weekend and it won’t be my last. Awesome food and excellent service. Quite a long waiting time for food but the food is worth the wait.
