Comments: 

- Very loud venue! Mixed platter a good option for two.

- Food was pretty good, but but brilliant. Soup had inedible bits. Skewers were good, despite the only garnish being Tim Noakes' spawn of satan - deep fried baby potatoes. 

- The food was really good, I liked the music. I enjoyed the place.

- Place awesome - food.. ahhh fair - company fabulous.

- Great service. Fantastic complimentary snacks that they have here - must remember to ask for them.

- Get here before 7pm as there is a 50% off on cocktails. The Mojito is delish!

Comments: 

- Fantastic tomato & feta soup for starter

- Espetada was done perfectly rare!

- Pork belly was awesome!

- Chicken curry was so tasty.

- Espetada was great! Mash was a little boring, but mint yogurt added some variety. Well informed Waitress, friendly. Bring your own wine - wine list limited and expensive.

- IGUSHA (Lamb cutlets) herb encrusted with cous-cous, tender. The only suggestion is to increase the sauce.

- Classic rare fillet with Bearnaise - delicious. Home made fries & spinach, great choice. Stupendously good vibe.

- Good pork belly - just waited quite long for food. Soup was also really good.

- Food was good, just a long wait.

- Excellent silver fish. Waited far too long.

- Wait for food was well worth it. Friday steak, eggs & chips special was delicious. Nice vibe. Lovely decor.

- Company was great. Waitress friendly, no complaints.

- Gnocchi was great as well as the company.
