Pól Ó Conghaile, November 2012, The Irish Examiner.

"Its an enticing space. The room is high, with a balconies overhead, but it manages a tasteful marraige of space & intimacy - dark wood, twinkling glassware, pearly lights and velvety banquettes combine to make you feel dozily at-ease."

Georgina Cambell’s Guide

“This pleasing bar and restaurant is located in a neat modern building and its early reputation as a good food destination has proved to be well founded.

 "Dining here is a real pleasure"
