Enjoyed a birthday here and it was great! Staff were attentive and kind, we had the set menu and well worth the price as lots of food and a good variety of the overall menu so you got a good selection. Server was very helpful on my allergies (as not on the 15 required list) and shout out to the bar staff who also identified my allergy in one of the garnishes of a cocktail and advised me accordingly.
