Customer Testimonials
We had a lovely night, great service and fantastic food.

The degustation menu was delicious, and the wines were thoughtfully matched. Sourcing wines from overseas added another dimension to our wine-tasting experience and was in contrast to our usual local wines. Every course offered something different, surprising and enjoyable and initiated lots of discussion around the tables.

"Thank you so much for dinner last night, the food was amazing! The waitstaff, though a little nervous, were incredibly polite and clearly engaged in the learning experience. I wish everyone great success in their course and can’t wait to see what your next menu has to offer."
— Neeshia Delaporte
"I just wanted to say a huge thank you to all the Hospitality and Commercial cookery teams that were involved in running the service last night (20th August). All of the wait staff that assisted our table were very professional and responded quickly to all requests. The food was absolutely delicious and presented beautifully. Everyone expressed what a great night they had and how much they enjoyed the meal. The birthday girl was very appreciative of the rendition of Happy Birthday provided by the teams when the cake was delivered, this made the celebration special. Millie was our main waitperson and showed professionalism and confidence, we cannot fault her service. All the students and staff were friendly and welcoming."
