    Food remains good but service levels have dropped. This is unlike what I would expect from a Merivale venue. For instance we waited at least 5 minutes at the entrance before our presence was acknowledged (there were 4 groups waiting before we were taken to our table).The important thing was that it was for my daughters birthday and she was really happy.

    We were booked in for 1230pm we arrived early 1210pm and were seated promptly, it had a great cultural vibe, the food was outstanding from the starters to the main, and the service was polite, with a smile and efficient.

    Awesome venue and superbly located on the waterfront. Great decor and feel to the place. Meal on this occasion was a little disappointing but the service and atmosphere made up for it.
