Service-wise we had a bit of a shaky start but everything was solved quickly. The staff is kind and aim to please. The food was beautifully presented and had really really good flavours, portion size was good and price was not cheap but, in my oppinion, fair to the quality and portion sizes. Beautiful views, specially during Christmas with all the lights and Chritmas Markets nearby. Will surely come back.

We received a very warm welcome from the server - she was incredibly helpful as we were looking for a special menu item, and explained that they didn't have it. However, she offered some great alternative suggestions. She was lovely and, to our surprise, even gave us a lovely compliment for our wedding anniversary. Thanks, Stephanie!

Excellent choice and quality of food. Great cocktails. Lively decor and vibe. The deep-voiced waiter was really hospitable and made me very welcome.

My friends and I rocked up here for a birthday meal. The vibe was polished , snazzy but unfortunately one of those places where they gradually increase the music so you end up shouting. They offer some great tasting cocktails, I recommend the yuzu whiskey sour. The mai tau variant didn't taste as great for the same £14 but the others I sipped of my friends were nicely made and well presented. The food menu consisted naturally of some sushi dishes. Having scoured through it, at a glance, the £45 tasting menu seemed the better choice. With that you got edename beans, rice bites, kfc cauliflower, kingfisher sashimi, salmon teriyaki, salmon Nigeria and maki, beef tataki? Black cod (a £14 upgrade) ginger marshmallow, mochi and tempura prawns. My other friends ordered similar dishes individually along with a steak . At first there was confusion of what was part of the set meal or not as one staff member was trying to help out but was not familiar with the dishes. The original server soon appeared though and explained everything very well. Everything was cooked and tasted amazing however those that did not get the set menu inhaled their small portions quickly and were at dessert level before we knew it. For me and my friend the food amount was just enough and we did enjoy it whereas my partner paid £50 for a couple of drinks and plates and was still starving. In all honesty, fancy places where your wallet feels as empty as your stomach afterwards are not usually vibe. If I had not chosen the set menu I likey would have marked it down. As a whole we enjoyed the experience but its somewhere I would not personally return.

We visited last week and used the first table 50% discount which was a great value for money. The food was ok, we got the scallops and sticky beed noodles as a starter and main the prawn linguini and pork chop. The starters were tasty and especially the sticky beef was a massive portion for a starter. We were less impressed with the mains. The prawn linguini did not have any sauce and the pork chop was chewy. Perhaps they could use a different pork cut or a smaller piece of meat. The lady who was at the reception/took order and served us was nice and friendly. The place was decorated to high standards with a friendly and relaxed environment.
