    I had an amazing experience with my friends, and a big part of that was thanks to the incredible service we received. Our waiter, Eros, went above and beyond to make sure we had a great time. He was extremely polite, friendly, and thoughtful, always making sure we had everything we needed. His attentiveness and warm attitude truly made our visit special. The food was fantastic, but the service made it even better. I highly recommend this place and will definitely be coming back.

    Excellent food and service. The lunch was for business purpose but needs to be in a causal environment, for which the May Fair Kitchen is perfect. This was my third time visiting, and will definitely go back. The Japanese and Italian menu is such a wonderful combination. 100% recommend!
