We love the location of this restaurant. The views are breathtaking and peaceful. The decor of restaurant is modern and stylist. We have been to this location a few times and loved it. This time our experience was different. We were celebrating our 36th wedding anniversary. Our meal which was the most expensive choice on the menu wasn’t what we expected. I didn’t eat much but things happen. We will be back in the future and hope for a much better experience as we know this is not the norm.

There was a good selection of food, however breakfast items were cold. Bacon and sausage over cooked. Romaine lettuce could have been cut smaller. The salmon Wellington and prime rib were very good. Overall rating 3/5.

We just love The Vista!! Their food is exceptional! Their ambience is comfortable, yet exquisite and feels very high end. They have always accommodated my vegan diet while the rest of my party can enjoy their extensive menu of high end cuisine!! The team at The Vista are always happy and inviting. They always take the time to have a conversation with you and are never too busy. You never feel rushed. This restaurant is nestled away from the hustle and bustle of the city. The grounds are absolutely gorgeous!! Driving up the lane way at night towards the resort is magical with all the romantic lights along the fences. Absolutely gorgeous!!! Can’t wait to book a room!!

I had lunch with my husband, it was fantastic. The restaurant is beautiful and on an equally stunning property. It was our first time dining at this location. The service and care of each detail is outstanding. Our dishes were delicious and the plating is absolutely beautiful. We had the burger and fish both equally scrumptious. The dessert plate for two was in one word decadent! Prices are reasonable for what you are getting. Every little detail is covered from spotless cutlery to the beautiful little floral arrangements on each table. We enjoyed our lunch and definitely plan on visiting again soon.

First time going to one of their holiday buffets and were not disappointed. The food was phenomenal as usual. Small, small issue with the english muffin with the eggs Benedict, you couldn't get a knife into it, so couldn't eat it. However, the egg was cooked perfectly, the hollandaise was spot on and the peameal was delicious. The decor was beautiful and added to the ambiance and attention to detail. My only complaint was our server, unfortunately. We had to wait for ages to get a 2nd coffee refill, and eventually got another server to help us, who also brought a new teapot for my Mum, which was lovely. Our server only seemed to be interested in the larger tables around us and by-passed us frequently. Eventually she did return for a 3rd coffee refill and water. However, shortly after we were presented with out bill and told it was no rush, but people were waiting for our table. We would have been finished sooner had we not sat waiting for coffee & tea. We will be back though, the food is too good to pass on!
