With outdoor temperature around 15°C and strong breeze which makes it much colder. With some warm gas fire. Truffle fries, delicious chicken wings and few handmade thin crust crispy pizza later, satisfy with warm body. The waiter has gone the extramile to stay back after her working hours to make sure we are well taken care off. Sorry I forgot your name but thank you.

The pizza is decent, but I really dislike when restaurants have a limit of only accepting 3 credit cards. When I travel with my 10 coworkers, we each prefer to pay our own bills on separate cards as per our company policy. We informed our server about this before ordering, as we have had problems at other restaurants in the area before. Although the manager was accommodating last time, I don't want to have to negotiate this issue every time we visit. Unfortunately, this restaurant is now blacklisted for our corporate meals.

Had the Cauliflower Pizza. It was great overall, though parts of it seemed a little too vinegary for me. The ginger beer was a satisfying beverage. There was a slice of lime in it and the potency of the ginger was at the perfect level. I have to givethis place another try and go with their other pizzas. In hindsight, I should've gone with a pizza with tomatoes on it, as Iprefer having either a tomato sauce or tomatoes as a topping. It was still a very enjoyable outing and I'm looking forward tocoming here again.

Burgers and salads were very good. Pizzas were mixed. Forge pepperoni was good, but the Margherita was bland with no need for a second slice. Service was friendly. We were there with a dog and an infant and found the patio seating very comfortable. Meal type: Dinner Price per person: $20–30 Food: 4 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5

My girlfriend and I had an excellent experience do to the host (Lilly). She accommodated my girlfriend near an outdoor heater so my gf could still enjoy the outdoor weather. What Lilly didn’t know is that my gf and I are in a long distance relationship and it was our last night together for a while. Very enjoyable staff. At least try this place once.
