  • A little late on reviewing; but did pay a visit for winterlicious for the dinner option. There were definitely some hits but a lot of misses sadly. First off walking in; decor is just gorgeous! Stunning actually with a rustic yet modern finish with a beautiful wine case display to rave about. The beauty had just left me in awe and I couldn't wait to be seated and dig in! In terms of he menu; we had tried the polenta fries and the tiger shrimp as the appetiser. The polenta fries... Large portion; definitely a sharer but although large in flavour; didn't speak much volumes in flavour unfortunately. Even a dash of salt would have worked wonders. It was accompanied with sauces but unless drenched; it just didn't help. The tiger shrimp had a tangy taste that is great for seafood lovers but I can't say it's he best I've had. Mains... There was one main that blew everything else out the water. The braised beef short rib on polenta and blue cheese was to die for. The meet fell off the bone perfectly and the polenta here was nice and creamy and flavoured to perfection and didn't overpower the star of the dish; the beautiful beef. I'd def come back for this main and it's also a large portion! The lobster ravioli on the other hand was basically he opposite. I was very sad at this! The plate arrived with 4 pieces of ravioli and this would have been sufficient if the filling was packed. When having a smaller portion your looking at meaty chunks of succulent lobster but I found it was ground to the point of indistinguishable measure. The sauce was tasty though but there wasn't enough to cost the ravioli at all making the dish rather dry. And the pasta was a tad uncooked. I prefer al Dente pasta but this was just too chewy. Finally dessert! The blood orange semi fredo was just amazing finished with some pomegranate seeds; perfect finish. But the chocolate hazelnut risotto was hands down the most off putting dessert I've ever had. When you hear risotto; you'd think smooth, warm, creamy; boy was I far from wrong. I was like old stale rice pudding. Hard and tasteless. Almost made to be masked by the oodles of whip cream on top and caramel sauce.. It was just so off putting that 2 of us didn't get past that first bite. Brutal I know! Saying that this restaurant had some hits and misses. Order their highly recommended and popular dishes and their pizzas; steer away from being adventurous at this joint! You'll be glad!
