Pretty authentic European food. I don't know what they did with the decor but it seems a lot less inviting and more cramped than before. I did enjoy the rustic, farm food. I had the egg before the chicken - the poached egg appetizer before the chicken entree. I figured that I would stick to simple theme. The food is good and you can taste the freshness. I am not sure it's worth the hefty price tag. Service was pretty good this time around.

Cheap and cheerful but still with a touch of class, probably my second favourite rooftop bar in Wellington. Definitely the place to be on a sunny afternoon! Excellent sangria.

The ambience, drinks, and service was all lovely and made for a very pleasant birthday! Really appreciated the on the house sangria - I didn’t realise I liked sangria until I tasted the margarita version.

My favourite restaurant in Wellington! Awesome tapas menu, there is something for everyone, I HIGHLY recommend the croquetas. They also have a delicious range of sangria flavours, my favourites are the peach and the watermelon. Really nice rooftop bar, love hanging out there on a sunny afternoon.

I've been here a few times over the past year and generally enjoy it. The food and sangria is usually great - some times it's a little too crowded, but that's just a sign it's a great place for a night out.
Last night, my partner and I went there for dinner with her parents. And it was disappointing, the menu seemed to have shrunk and the food was OK, but not as good as usual. That said it still had a fantastic atmosphere and friendly staff.
Hopefully this was a one-off as their rooftop bar is a great way to spend a summer's evening - make sure you take a few people with you to share sangria with and taste all the flavours.
