    We were greeted politely by the young man who greeted us that evening. He ensured that we got everything we needed before we entered the food premises. The food was cooked to perfection with delicious flavours. Our table was constantly cleared from the dirty dishes and our children were happy with everything they experienced as it was their first time there. We loved the variety of desserts. There were so many beautiful assortments to choose from. Our family has now decided it's our new place to dine in and eat. Thank you very much for the wonderful hospitality we experienced.

    The food was unbelievable as always. If there was another bartender on, I think we would’ve got our drinks as quickly as I like. A nice touch that the owner came around and asked all of the diners if they were having a good experience. I would eat here every night if the bone marrow was put back on the menu

    Food and service was good. Just the people that had dishes with prawns felt there wasn’t much prawns just a lot of pasta to there dish. But we still all enjoyed it and will be back, next time they will just make sure they order it with extra
