Food and service was on point. Excellent venue and outstanding views from our table. I was also able to get a charge for my EV. The only negative is we had to keep waving our hands to deter the flies from landing on our food. I would definitely return.

So pleased that it was open on a public holiday. I took some "senior"American friends and my adult children . The Americans thought it was fabulous ( just a bit too noisy). We had a most enjoyable evening.
