Beautiful spot, we will be back. Our waiter, Wil, was very friendly and efficient. The food was very good other than the fish and chips which is a very small portion but tasty. Looks more like a starter. Great wine and beer selection. Patio was a great option on a nice day.

The service was excellent and we both enjoyed the passionfruit cheesecake. The dinner feature pasta was overly salty, however.

We had a group dinner of nine people. We made reservations ahead of time, but it was a total mixup because the first group that arrived was put at one table and the second group that arrived was told there was no reservation and put at another table at the other side of the restaurant. It took us 20 minutes to figure out that we were all in the restaurant but in different places. There was no apology. We enjoyed the dinner. Food was good we were not bothered, but to the point that as soon as we paid the bill, the waitress completely disappeared. There was no more water or any other questions, but had no problem charging $80 tip to $500 dinner bill.
