    Aurelia has taken a major step up this year. We have enjoyed dining at Castle Hill's main dining room regularly over the last 20 years. The restaurant is small. It has perhaps 10 tables in the main dining room and has two more small rooms for when they are busy. The restaurant is quiet, and the views over the bay are beautiful. This year, however, the food was significantly more innovative and delicious than it was in years past. Highlights of our meal included a very interesting vegetable tart, a tuna tartar with a cucumber sauce, morel mushroom risotto, dry aged duck with cherry and a japanese A5 wagyu beef dish. Everything we had was delicious, but these dishes were particularly good. Along with the improved food, the service also appeared to take a step in the direction of more sophistication. Our waiter was quite knowledgable about wine and the other staff achieved a lovely balance of being highly attentive without being intrusive. We had a great evening and are excited to see Aurelia come up to this level of dining.
