"Perfect from start to finish. Highly recommend the taster menu. The owner took time to chat to us between courses during the dinner as well. The quality of the fish is excellent and the amount of food just right. The balance of flavours will have you leaving very happily at the end of the meal!"

"I am regularly in this restaurant. eating is consistently excellent and the staff is very friendly and helpful. I would recommend some favorite dishes, but it is all so good it is hard to choose what to eat when we go! Definitiw they give the dragon roll a try though! if they love Sushi/Japanese food, then they must come to osaka."

"We discovered this hidden gem accidentally. I was expecting some rather dull pre made sauces etc however to my surprise this restaurant turned out to be the best Indian restaurant for quality, taste and service on this side of town. Food is consistently good and some great dishes. Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 3"

"My first taste of Aperol happened in Venice, extremely appropriate given Aperol’s Italian heritage. Topped with soda and gazing out on Venice’s intricate, windy cobbled streets, this bright drink has the power to transport me right back. View from the Grand Canal. I’ve always viewed this as a bit of a summer drink though and Aperol are on a mission to change that and make Aperol a year-round tipple and so they’ve invited us to the Cocktail Trading Co to get a crash course in how to make this drink and show us just how easy drinking it is year round."
