Well we went during the soft opening, and were very impressed. Excellent food, top service, our waiter knew the menu inside out, was very upfront from the start about the lack of alcohol/pork due to the licence not being finalised (theyre expecting it imminently) and a great vibe to the place with nice lighting and classic 80s tunes in the background.... Agree its not cheap though, but our verdict is we will be back...

say it aint so jamie - lets hope that's not the case because it looks like a casual italian bistro and that sounds so pricey.

Looking forward to going too, and I think it must be open as someone has posted this (not great) review on TimeOut: [i'>Maincourse: a sirloin steak 8oz with a bit of rocket on the side, no potatoes AED 130. Many things on the menu (including most of the deserts) where not available. A can of coke AED 18. As a friend mentioned " never ever again". Very disappointing indeed. [/i'>

Yes it is open, we went on Thursday afternoon. Food was delish, a little over priced and not everything was available if it had alcohol in it, it was not being served. It was fairly empty but felt busy with all the staff doing stuff but not doing anything if you know what I mean. I have been to the one in London and felt this one was a bit of a let down in comparison. Oh and there is no pork on the menu either so no yummy dried hams. Just my little food/restaurant review there.
