Customer Reviews

The hostess at the entrance mistakenly informed me that my booking was for downstairs and luckily they could accommodate me, later on I was being informed that my booking was meant to be at upstairs. Our server “ Kennedy” was amazing, she was friendly and professional. Food was good, the oyster was divine. The grilled octopus was slightly overcooked & the Bouillabaisse was a bit salty.
I have always gone to Ferris’s downstairs and enjoyed it well enough, but was never ‘wowed’. On my birthday we were actually on our way somewhere else for dinner and I had a craving for oysters. Being past 5 pm, we decided to go upstairs. And what a lovely surprise! Upstairs is elegant and beautiful but still casual. The food (because we ended up just…not leaving!) was great -the chicken liver pâté was out of this world!! And our server, Chelsea was so lovely! In fact, when she found out it was my birthday, she comped us each a wine without telling us. Will 100% return.
Absolutely top notch incredible food and service. Ignore the outliers. Our favourite stop whenever we visit Victoria for special occasions. Kennedy is an excellent server, who's attentive, knowledgeable and personable, adding to the 5 star experience. Thank you for a wonderful birthday dinner :)
