It was absolutely amazing! We had no reservation but Ash, the best waiter, was able to welcome and accommodate us with a lovely afternoon tea. Not only is the service great, but the atmosphere and surroundings as well!!! 10/10 experience. Thank you to all lovely employees, and a special thanks to Ash.

We found the staff exceptionally kind and attentive. But there were frequent gaps between the initial request for specific items and the ultimate delivery. After a while, the most gracious apology cannot substitute for actual delivery!
