Read full reviewI was impressed with the ambiance and service, but the food was disappointing overall. Nothing wow-ed me and the lamb was extremely dry and over cooked. It was at the point where you couldn't tell if it was lamb or beef because all the taste had been cooked out. It seemed like it was cooked earlier and re-cooked when dinner service started. That ruined the experience for me. On the positive side, the waiter noticed I wasn't enjoying the meal and came to ask what was wrong. He brought me some more sauce and took my mains off the bill, without me having to complain or request it. I was impressed by that.
