In my experience, fine dining often lacks adequate portion sizes relative to the high price point. However, dining here was a truly worthwhile experience. The food was not only amazing with stunning plating, but the portions were surprisingly filling for our party of three. We ordered three different sets and drinks, and none of them disappointed. I left with a fulfilled palate, a happy smile, and a very full stomach. The service was impeccable—highly attentive, and they perfectly timed each course. I also noticed they purposefully turned up the volume of the music when it got busier, so as the guests wouldn't bother each other. So thoughtful!
This place didn’t seem to have too many reviews on tik-tok which has been our go to place for recommendations whilst travelling. However it’s definitely a secret gem! The food was incredible, it wasn’t too busy so atmosphere was lovely, a live violinist was playing. It was great, couldn’t recommend it enough and especially the black cod was some of the best we have had, better than places like Nobu or Ivy Asia
I came for a special birthday meal, in Vietnam from the UK. Ella was our server, so attentive, amazing English too. The food was so good. I’m not usually a fine dining babe. But I tried new delicious flavours. Everything gave great quality and was executed sublimely. Would 100% recommend.
Came to celebrate a special occasion. Food was nice and on point esp steak. Steak is well done and has a nice balance of char, smokiness and tenderness. The service was excellent, polite waiter. He always check in on us. Worth coming when in Hanoi.
Pleasantly enjoyable meal serviced by Harry. The set menu was designed well with reasonable portion and good flavors. The restaurant was cozy with decent views of Hanoi. Overall for decent quality with value. If you are spending few nights in Hanoi and craving for modern european cuisine, this could be it.
