Additionally, the booths are furnished with Balmoral tweed over the seats. Each section is different and provides for contrasting atmospheres; more intimate upon entry and then a busier dining area set against the backdrop of a Stucco Veneziano wall showpiece.

Up the stone stairs is a raised area with purple chairs and lighting creating a family friendly, fine dining aura.
