   Overall a good restaurant. Delicious cocktails. I was celebrating my birthday here with a friend. The only thing I didn't like was that there wasn't any discount or compliment in the form of a birthday cake. This would be a nice bonus from the restaurant. But I recommend this place, I liked it

   Food was great, service was decent. I booked on Dec.8 for a table on Dec.21. So we were a bit disappointed to be seated at a random table in the busy corridor behind the server station. Especially when there were multiple empty tables. Next time I'll request a booth or window.

   Lovely atmosphere. Would like a broader menu. I did find an item I enjoyed. Had a lovely table but there was a massive yacht parked in front of the lovely full windows so no view. I appreciate the restaurant has no control over where this ship was parked but it will influence if I go back as the view is a big draw. I am not a real foodie so I found the menu a bit limiting. The dish I ordered was delicious. And the waiter was very attentive.

   Service outstanding but the harbour view is non existent due to mega yachts blocking the view

   Hello Peter, thank you for your review and feedback. We’re thrilled to hear the service was outstanding during your recent visit. We are very lucky to have our beautiful location in the International Marina along the inner harbour, however, this does mean we occasionally have yachts in our window. Unfortunately, this is out of our control, and we appreciate your understanding. Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review. We look forward to hosting you again soon.

   Let me say first of all, our server was first rate, she would do well to move on to a better restaurant! The meals considering the price were pedestrian at best. My lamb was over cooked and dry, however the vegetable sides were nice. My husband had the ceviche to start and it was bland. His main was the pork belly which was beautifully cooked but the sides were wanting. Most surprising, was how poor the desserts were. My dessert boasted a buttercream icing that was so obviously made in part with vegetable shortening, it was like eating a poor quality grocery store cake. My friend had the carrot cake which had a mushy texture and a chewy icing like it had been sitting out for days. Our friends said their meals were passable but one could certainly do better elsewhere in town. Such a disappointment!

   We had a fabulous gal's lunch on Friday at Boom and Batten. We were seated at table #34 on the upper level. Our server was amazing! Our water glasses were filled before the glasses were empty, and the same applied for our coffee cups. Although the food was a little pricey every bite was delicious! The restaurant was quite busy but we were able to hear each other talk . I will definitely be returning!

   We enjoyed our birthday celebration dinner for three. Food quality is very good. However, we are discouraged by the ever increasing pricing on moderate sized orders. This will discourage us from returning more than once or twice a year.

   We were seated for dinner in the Sunset Café area, which turned out to be quieter than the main dining room. The server was very friendly and attentive. It's a beautiful location, and the food was wonderful.

    Service was outstanding. Monica R was an excellent server. We requested a view table for our anniversary dinner. We received a view table however our view was totally blocked a large yacht moored right in front of the restaurant
