| - Came with a party of 7 (with reservations) Friday evening - the place was quite full when we got there but actually seemed to empty out fairly quickly after an hour or so. It wasn't even that late! Maybe take this into consideration if you prefer a quieter dinner/drinks affair, rather than having to raise your voice to have a conversation.
Food:
I had the Wiki Wiki (wild boar, duck bacon, pineapple relish, gouda, chickpea onions on brioche), and shared some onion rings, fries, and sweet potato fries. I also had a peanut butter, chocolate and banana milkshake! Although the burger seemed a bit small at first glance (the plate looked large in comparison), it was pretty filling and I enjoyed it, especially the pineapple relish; the sweetness lent well to the savoury boar. I didn't think the boar patty was too special; I actually didn't think it was juicy enough. The fries were pretty good, a bit average in my opinion. However, I LOOOOVED the onion rings - they were large and crispy. So. Good.
The shareable plates (which we ordered from) also comes with some house made dipping sauces: ginger ketchup, chipotle mayo, jalapeno mayo (maybe, can't remember), and barbeque. Keep in mind that if you order fries/rings from the "sides" section, you won't get dipping sauces - dipping sauces only come from the shareables section. The milkshake was decent - not excellent, but far from poor. It was creamy and still had chunks of banana in it (reassuring), but I would've preferred a thicker shake. What I liked was the option to mix as many flavours as you wanted into one milkshake!
Service:
Service was excellent. Our waitress, seeing as we were a large party, automatically assumed that everyone would pay separately (she assumed correct). She also offered to split our shareables (fries, rings) equally amongst us. +1000 points to her. What I also liked was how she recommended the shareables to us, rather than leaving us to order our sides separately - it saved us money, and we also got to try their house sauces! The waitress was also very attentive to us, and refilled our water bottles frequently. The bussing staff were also efficient at taking away our used plates.
TLDR: would totally come back; would've given 5 stars if the prices weren't so steep!
