26th May 2023 (1 star) Awful! No staff, slow service but food was good Was told it would be slow for drinks as only 1 bartender but not that slow that we would be finished our food and waiting on the bill before the drink arrived .... May 2022 (5 stars) Awesome venue and great atmosphere. We had a table of 12 and the staff were very attentive to catering to our needs. Food was amazing, my wife and I shared 5 small plates as part of their tapas time menu. Shredded Chipotle beef nachos Brazilian chicken Brazilian beach cheese (halloumi) Chicken quesadilla Copacobana cauliflower Would 100% return in the future. It is a top quality restaurant

Terrible service, sat down for bubbly brunch and we waited 30 min for someone to take our order and another 15 min for the drinks to arrive. Then the food was served, my girlfriends arrived with most of the rice not even cooked so we sent it back and they did remake one. The drinks menu was very limited and out of the 4 drinks I had, only 2 of them were nice. Also during the middle of the meal my chair fell apart causing me to almost fall off. Overall it was a really bad experience and will not be eating there again.

Really tasty food and generous portions! We got a voucher to use and weren't expecting much as it's a chain, but actually the food was lovely for what it was. The cheesy sauce served with nachos was amazing, the mixed grill was full of flavour, churros were soft on the inside, crispy on the outside as they should be (but many places get wrong). Cocktails were boozy and tasty and coffee was well made (usually the coffee is burnt in restaurants). Overall pleasantly surprised by the quality of food. The service was great, Christian was our server and he was friendly and prompt and I assume his manager has looked after us too and was very enthusiastic. We will be back :)
