"The menu provides a number of great options for every palette."
Cons:
"Party of 4, sitting outside, place half empty. We had to wait 20 minutes for anyone to come talk to us after we made eye contact and waved numerous times at the waiters (they're wearing suits for some reason)."
"Tables were too packed too closely together, we could barely squeeze into our seat."

"Interesting design that catches the eye upon entry, located close to Kings Cross Station. We were there for a breakfast event and the food was tasty, timely with great service."
"Our New Year Eve reservation for 9 people was marred by a series of disappointments. Upon arrival, our table wasn't ready, leading to a 30-minute wait at the crowded bar with insufficient seating."
"The food was decent, they had pretty decor, and the waitress was nice. However, we had an unpleasant experience with the reception hostess."

"The restaurant was offensively loud, which meant people had to shout to be heard, making the environment even more unpleasant."
