“My wife and visit the gardens each summer and usually treat ourselves to the high tea. This year we felt the sandwiches were a bit bland and it appeared the menu was unchanged from 2025. Service was pretty good although the tea was not as hot as it could have been. Enjoyed the garden view from the outside terrace but be aware there can be wasps. Expensive for what you get but it is a nice treat!“

“this has been the best Korean food I've tried on the island since moving here over 2 years ago. The tteokbokki was quite flavorful and was deliciously spicy.

Really good service and kind servers who greeted you, and checked in often. Never felt rushed or felt like I was unwelcome there. Waters were quickly refilled and offered.

Nice ambiance, a cozy spot with warm, authentic Korean food. Will be returning soon.“

I’ve tasted combinations I never would have imagined could work, and every single one was incredible. Tonight, alongside the thoughtfully crafted food menu, I was given a menu that highlighted where their fresh, local ingredients come from. That attention to detail made the experience even more impressive.
I’m beyond impressed and will absolutely be back 1000000x.“
