Vibe: Aromas less appealing

While the flavoursome ecstasy of the food is unmistakable, the pervasive chemical smell in the ambiance leaves something to be desired, casting a slightly sombre shadow over the dining experience. But rest assured, the drink selection, expertly curated by a mixologist, offers a sensory respite.

Perks: Park easy, brace for heat

However, the outdoor seating can get uncomfortably hot, and large groups may feel squeezed in the compact interiors.
