Visited for a birthday dinner and was brilliant. The ambience and atmosphere was great, which, for a Monday evening is not common. We had a reservation but still had to wait 5mins at the bar for our table. Our waiter was called Gift and was excellent - attentive, helpful, provided recommendations and really helped to make the experience. Food was delicious, it's not the cheapest (with tip and 2 alcoholic drinks, it was £60 a head) but it deserves it. when they found out it was my birthday, they gave a simply additional side on the dessert which was nice. The donuts were so good, definitely recommend. The only negative was that there were additional drinks on our bill but when we pointed that out, they were immediately taken off. Would thoroughly recommend and sure we will revisit again. There's a great pub opposite if you want to grab a drink beforehand and a car park only a few minutes walk.
This is a mix of Theatre and restaurant the food is very nice. Some of the dishes are presented in a very theatrical way. The atmosphere is good, however it is not the cheapest place in the world. I just feel like something is missing to make it five stars.
We arrived for our anniversary dinner and were made to wait at the bar for around 10 minutes as the counter table was not ready so that was a dissapointing start. The food itself is nice enough but as other reviews have already highlighted, it is perhaps more style over substance. The decor is stunning, needless to say. The highlight for us was Bijay (head sushi chef) who was so brilliant, made us the best dishes we had of the night and was just so attentative and friendly. A real asset to the restaurant.
They did give us a complimentary mochi dessert for our anniversary which was a nice touch.
We would return but I do think they need to work on tables being ready on time as that seems a common issue from other reviews too.
second time going; Food amazing - probs best ever had. Service incredible - again, probs best ever, I am not sure how they get staff to work so hard. Atmosphere, lighting and decor amazing. Strongly recommend, only draw back is that it is so successful, that it was rammed on a Wed night, only slot we could get was 18.45. We arrived few mins early, were told we have our table for 1 and half hours. We probs spent 2 hours sat down before being asked to move - we did move the the bar for another hour or so. But the experience is very rushed, with staff constantly asking you to order your food and drink, and as soon as you have eaten your main course, they are asking you to order your desert, which comes in about 20 seconds. My recommendation - go later, so that you are still there around 10PM when obvs they stop getting people coming in, and the place will be slightly less rushed and they don't need your table.
It's very expensive but it's more than just food, it's a like a show. A cabaret of artistic dishes and presentations await.
The sharing menus are brilliant as they offer such a wide variety of dishes. The cocktails are also very special. They use some premium ingredients. For example, the Mango Sling uses the premium la hechicera and koko kanu rums.
The beautifully ornate decor and ambience enhance the magical and highly memorable gastronomic experience, and it is an experience.
Impeccable service from our server, Sara.
Great food that did not disappoint.
Veggie options are good and the decor is spot on.
Staff are attentive and you are looked after well. There are plenty of funky alcoholic and non-alcoholic drink options.
Ohh... The cheesecake dessert is insane.
Fantastic birthday meal. Food is outstanding, and the service was excellent. Very busy but great atmosphere. Everyone was very friendly . Loved it !
Great food quality but the quantity need to be increased for that prices or drop prices. Service and atmosphere were excellent. If you like sushi, it is one of the best places to go.
Had lunch here a few days ago! Service, decor, ambience and of course the food, all SPOT ON!
The food was absolutely delicious, especially the Lobster and Duck Fried Rice and the Black Cod with Miso!
Definitely going back here again 👌🏻👌🏻
Q: Why did we wait so long to experience this genuinely memorable dining experience? The food was truly exquisite, the decor and atmosphere are like nowhere else in Guildford and the service was spot on. We enjoyed a substantial lunch for two with a bottle of wine for £40pp... A: we waited because we thought it would be overpriced and forgettable - obviously the opposite is true. You should try it.
