    We have been here twice with friends and really like it. The food is excellent and the service good. Delivery of the food seemed a bit slow last night, but that was a kitchen problem not the wait staff. If you like a bit of space around you, this is the place to go, too. A very open plan There was a saxophone playing last night, which became a bit loud. But it was a very good saxophonist!!!
