It’s a lovely venue with lovely food. The service by the girls are pleasant, even friendly. The guys not as much I feel. The menu isn’t large, but I think perhaps more care and thought goes into what is there. I noticed the prices can be high, but I haven’t tried those dishes.. they may be well worth it. I drank moscato and got to say it was really lovely. A good brand perhaps, and that’s how I feel about this venue.. it feels almost lavish with good wine, good food and even good interior with a touch of fancy.If you are after a cheap pizza, don’t go in, but if you are after an evening of treating yourself, give it a go.

Nice setting. Service was welcoming all of our meals were great. Garlic bread was unique and delicious. Steak was presented athletically. Pasta looked as though was just slapped together but made up for it in flavour. We did have to wait a little after our entree before our mains were served but was worth the wait. I will note the place was rather busy and there was a larger group in front of us so I believe that contributed to the longer wait. Our desert was promptly served after the table was cleared. Espresso martini was great as well.Would recommend to try as a date night or if you are staying at the hotel.
