I absolutely loved it. I now have a favorite restaurant. Keep up the hard work guys the Cannelloni, House Red, and profiteroles in a chocolate sauce is an amazing combo. The environment is up beat with a talkative atmosphere. My only two issues would be the entrance, as it's a little cramped and awkward, although it wouldn't be a problem in the summer and my friend, in jest, mentioned being "flash banged" by the kitchen door. However that would only speak more toward the well thought out lighting and ambience of the quaint restaurant. I felt I had to mention those very minor problems, but that

We had our Christmas dinner with colleagues from work and it was an absolute perfect night. From starter to dessert, the food was amazing, so tasty, so fresh, hot and the portions were very generous. The staff was very friendly and the serving was fast as well. It was first time dinning at this restaurant, but we will surely come back. Highly recommend!
