Dined here on a Friday night with my partner. We each had a 3 course meal. For entree we had the scallops and the oysters with bacon and chorizon relish. Very delicious and nicely made. Mains were the salmon and the rib eye steak. The salmon was amazing. Highly recommend it. The skin was crispy and the mash was ever so cream.

My partner was not too impressed with the steak. Was slightly undercooked. I had the dark chocolate 'Lindt' tarte which was to die for. Incredibly rich and indulgent. By far, the best. You must get it when you dine here. The cheese platter was plentiful and could be shared between 2 people. Very nice variety of cheeses.

The ambience was great. Very comfortable and nice environment. The service was excellent. No complaints here.

Dined here on a Friday night with a friend of mine. Had a fantastic dining experience. The service was excellent. They asked if we needed help with the menu or if we were in a rush. We ordered the prawns with cashew nut and the duck. Both were very delicious. I was not initially a fan of chinese food but my opinions have changed. It was very fresh and delicious. A little on the pricey side but its worth it. Can't wait to go back again.

Dined here on a Thursday night with 3 friends. We sat with a view to the street. Is a nice little place, despite the ugly view of the taxi. There was a jazzy band playing which was absolutely delightful. A really nice vibe.

We ordered 4 Raciones, the medium sized meals and it was ok if you were not hungry. But if you were, you would need about 6-8 I think to be quite satisified. We got the calamari, the paella, the garlic prawns and the chicken wings. All were very tasty. I definitely recommend these dishes.

It wasn't too busy so service was friendly. The food was delicious, so I would probably dine here again. Though, tapas is generally expensive anyway.

This is quite a nice little place tucked away on Enmore Road. We went there on a Sunday night so it wasn't busy. We had a bottle of wine and the cheese platter. Was alright. Am keen to try the cocktails next time. I think they should have a happy hour (if they haven't already).

I ordered the Ipoh Hor Fun and, unfortunately, I fell ill the next day. The service size was not very big either. Maybe it was just this batch but not sure if I will return again.

We had a function there on the balcony. Was a perfect spot overlooking the beach. The cocktail happy hour till 8pm was great although, we didn't find them that strong. The whole ambience was really nice.

If you are going to order canape platters, I highly recommend the prawn skewers, the pizza and the spring rolls are nice as well. The wings were a bit too oily and lacked a bit of flavour. The mini burgers would have been better if the buns were a little smaller.

The bar upstairs got quite busy so it was hard to get service there. The management and function staff are really helpful though.

I thought the overall dining experience was very good. We were seated straight away and the service was really good. Despite being a very busy Sunday after the festival. The four of us got the Banquet. We were very satisifed and there was more than enough food to go around. I would recommend this place for sure.

The food is really good. Everything is designed to share but they should have the option to have your own main meal as well. Loved the teriyaki salmon, deep fried camembert and the teriyaki chicken. It is a bit on the pricey side you have to get quite a bit to get full as well. But I was happy with the variety in their wine list.

The place itself is really nice. Loved the live music but can get a bit on the loud side. Service was friendly but found that we had to be a bit proactive with getting their attention. Otherwise it was great.

Had a great experience here. The staff are so friendly and fantastic. The service felt really personalised. Couldn't be better. I have to say, the complementary sweet potato chips are to die for. Absolutely fantastic. We demolished them. Could eat them by the bucket load.

I love the whole concept of it and the range of sausages are not only delicious but impressive. I highly recommend the texan sausages as well as the parmesan mash. But everything is so good. Definitely give it a try. Its warm, wholesome and very inventive.

Went there on a Friday night with a group of girls. We booked a private room in advance. The whole touch screen ordering is alot of fun and it comes out incredibly quick. I would recommend booking the private room especially if you are a bigger group.

As for the food, it was excellent. Everything was delicious but especially loved the crumbed cheese, the spicy chicken wings and the noodles. It was reasonably priced as well for all the food that we had to share between us.

Overall great experience would go there again. I can imagine there is a tendency to overspend with the touchscreen but its fun place to go for a group.
