We had an absolutely fantastic experience at Vue de Monde. The service was incredible, with great attention to detail. The food was the best I have ever had in my life, with many of the dishes containing ingredients I don't usually like yet being my favourite of the night. An experience my partner and I will never forget. Thank you to all the staff for such a memorable experience.

I celebrated an early Christmas dinner with my husband to cap off a challenging year. Our waiters and waitresses were uniformly friendly, well-informed and well-trained. It remains a consistent delight to have celebration meals at Donovan's. Well done for maintaining such excellent standards.

The service was very good, staff were friendly and quickly cleared plates from tables. The food was good but for dinner I expected a little more variety. Dessert was very good. The feel of the diner was warm and inviting, I love the new look!
