Vibe: Grimy ambiance, poor dates
If you're in search of a charming spot for date night, you might want to look elsewhere. The restaurant has been criticized for its lackluster ambiance – cramped, rundown and in need of a serious facelift. Additionally, the noise level reportedly hinders its suitability for an intimate evening. Their inadequacy spills over into their space planning too– not quite the place for large parties, unless you enjoy cramped spaces and long waits.

Perks: Commendable service, shoddy parking
However, this stumbling spot has its lifelines – their service being a noteworthy one. Numerous reviews applaud the staff's exceptional, friendly and attentive nature.

Bear in mind though if you're thinking of heading over in large groups, the venue might disappoint with its small space and long waiting times.
