All of our meals were very average. Flavourless, didn’t seem fresh and seemed quite amateur. Not sure how the ratings are so high - probably family, friends and employees. The staff were very flustered and stressed and were rushing people to leave their tables. We were told that because we didn’t order dessert that we would have to give up our table. I still had half a glass of wine which I had to leave there - but still had to pay for it! The only redeeming feature is that it’s in a cute spot and had some cute cats that got to enjoy the average meals that...
