I went there this Tuesday with a couple of colleagues after work.

Pluses:
Decor is fantastic - everything you see in the photos and more.
Really nice use of the space with all the different areas having their own style and each giving you a feeling of having your own private space.

Minuses:
The music - the DJ wasn't in attendance and the dance floor wasn't in use. But in the club there seemed to be just one tape that repeated each hour offering such exotica as Guns n Roses, Park life, View to a Kill etc.
Food was OK but no vegetarian options (not a problem for me but a big problem in London generally).
No Wahines - all the staff were male!

The drinks were a very varied bunch. All were very well presented and came in a wide variety of mugs and glassware and included a few drinks from it's sister bar Mahaiki.
However there seemed to be a lot of modern cocktails not based on the usual rum and my colleagues didn't find these to their taste.

Also I think it has yet to gather the attention of the masses - even though it was a Tuesday night, up til 10pm there was never more than a dozen people.

Defiantly worth a visit, and I intend going back again closer to a weekend.
