    Not a great driver experience to be honest The good : snapper filet was good, kids entrees were great The OK: the martinis barely made the cut The bad: let’s start with the service - service started fine with water and food orders, then went downhill with us being forgotten for the rest of the service The sushi arrived minus the ginger and wasabi - getting the servers attention was another challenge Water glasses were filled only by getting the servers attention again :( The dessert was underwhelming The cost of the meal did not justify the food or service quality

    We had an incredible experience at Ostra. The vegetarian options were excellent. Our favorite dish was the mushroom spring rolls which were amazing and so flavorful! We also loved the papaya sushi roll (no fish). The zero proof drinks were excellent as well. I had a watermelon drink which was good, but our favorite was the passion fruit drink. The desserts were elevated and absolutely delicious. We had the lemongrass panna cotta (my favorite) and the chocolate mousse (my partner’s favorite). The ambiance and service were also excellent. We will definitely be coming back!

    Very inventive food, attentive staff, a little hard to gear chefs behind counter when sitting at the sushi station. Most interesting menu, worth a visit to this restaurant (Perla) in a restaurant.
