Nice vegan dining experience, the dishes I enjoyed the most were the pumpkin dumplings and the mushroom liquorice ice cream! They combine very interesting ingredients together and it works out perfectly. I have to say, the cauliflower dish did not impress me as it tasted a bit bland and you couldn’t really taste the miso in it, it was also way too much cauliflower which is too filling if you’re having several courses. The mushroom schnitzel dish felt a bit unfinished compared to the other dishes and it was also a bit burnt (maybe it’s supposed to be like that). The service was great, however, as mentioned in other reviews, some staff explained the dishes in detail and others didn’t, which seems a little inconsistent. Everybody working was incredibly friendly though! The atmosphere could be improved as it’s quite bright inside and the music was all over the place. Regardless of these points, we left quite happy and enjoyed our experience :)

We had a great time here to celebrate my partner’s birthday! Food was excellent with great tastes and combinations. Also, service was super kind and our waiter took the time each time to introduce us our next plate. I read a few comments about the noise inside of the restaurant. It could only happen if you have noisy people around you as the tables are quite close to each other. Apart of this, nothing to highlight apart of a great experience from the start to the end. Thank you!

I truly hate to give poor reviews to restaurants I can tell are really putting in the effort so let me give you some of my credentials first. I’m a 10+ year veteran in the service industry. The other people I was dining with are also in fine dining (chefs and FOH). I’ve also been a vegetarian for over ten years. So I do have high expectations, I’ll admit that. But with a high price tag and good reviews who wouldn’t? We all did the full vegan tasting menu with wine pairings. They had an option for dessert and we had both chosen in our group. I don’t want to get into too much so I’ll just say this. Every single dish severely lack seasoning, it certainly had not been tasted by anyone who believes vegan cuisine can be just as delicious as “regular food.” Many dishes has sever texture issues as well. One dessert was genuinely inedible because the cake on the bottom had congealed to a texture that was impossible to cut through. Service was well timed but fairly stale as they just repeated the same descriptions to each table and really added no personal thoughts or emotion to it. The wine pairings were delightful and played a large role in saving our experience. They did seem to notice we weren’t having an exceptional time as they attempted a service recovery at the end by having the chef bring over an extra treat. We very much appreciated this gesture. Perhaps I had my expectations too high but for that price the wine and service recovery techniques were unfortunately not enough to keep me from feeling the need to share my negative experience. I do believe they have incredible potential there and truly hope we just went on an off day.
