A wonderful experience of magnificent food & service. The best meal I have had at a restaurant for a while. I only wish I could have tried every dish. Only comment, I feel the wine list was a little limited in some varieties with some a tad expensive for what they were. I had as a main the blue eyed cod which was cooked to perfection & served artistically. I struggle a little with the fact this dish was $52 for a very small piece of cod & sides extra, which were necessary. If I lived closer I would be a frequent diner at this restaurant. Congratulations & well done to all the staff & chef.

Food and drinks were both fantastic. Service was perfection, relaxed and welcoming. Not over attentive but just the right amount. Super keen to come back. Deserving of more than one hat. x

Absolutely delicious! Everything!! including my cocktail. More expensive than I usually do so will be kept for special occasions only but I will most certainly be back. Service was excellent as well. Lovely staff, not intrusive, just spoilt us rotten. Found the music rather loud - prefer it to be background and quieter rather than quite so loud. Lovely spot. Marvellous evening. Thanks Valentina.

Best dining experience of my life!!! Everything about this restaurant is so special. The food was so fresh and utterly divine. Highly recommend getting the snapper and the scallops. The service was impeccable. Staff were super friendly and helpful with wine choices. The atmosphere was so inviting - the gorgeous interior design, vibey music and moody lighting really added to the whole experience. The view overlooking the water is also incredible if you manage a to score a table by the glass wall. Our booking was quite late but the view before or during sunset would be amazing. Overall 11/10 experience.
