    Enjoyed the food. The crabs were fiddly to get meat out of them they were spanner crabs. But could not fault anything else. It would be nice if they had a place where we could get more napkins instead of asking the staff

    I would like to congratulate you all on an excellent overall experience for my family of 6. The service from front of house to the back of house was excellent, the food taste, presentation, quality & quality is excellent. We were all impressed by the selection of The Italian night. Please if you can keep this as a ongoing night, we loved it & would definitely do it again. Thanks to all the team for making our night enjoyable.

    There was a good variety of delicious foods. Restaurant wasn't packed so noise level was ok - We could hear each other speak without shouting.

    Our reservation was at 8pm on a Saturday. Seafood - Crab was unappetizing, dry and tasteless, Oysters and Prawns we're beautiful. Didn't see anyone eat pippy's and we didn't try them. Red Emperor fish in batter was tough and cold. Meat - Pork was a bit chewy but very tasty, Lamb and Chicken dishes were hot, well cooked and delicious. Desert was a good selection of hot and cold dishes, and tasty. But the ice cream machine was producing a liquid mess. All in all, we made the best of it, we had to request soup and various dishes to be replenished, and for $60 a head plus drinks I would hesitate to go again. Maybe if you were there at 6pm when everything first leaves the kitchen and each dish is fresh you might have a better experience.
