    Our overall experience of The Treehouse was spectacular. Our server was super accommodating and went out of her way to ensure we had a great experience. The food was hands down one of the best experiences I’ve ever had. I would highly recommend this restaurant for anyone willing to step outside of their comfort zone.

    Wife and I traveled to celebrate her birthday, and I decided to make reservations at Peninsula. Let me say I am glad I chose this place! Excellent service from the hostess and our waiter. we ordered 5 dishes to try, and everything was fresh and exciting. Intimate feeling within the restaurant itself with limited seating. Seemed all the waiters were busy checking on guests and taking care of everyone, nobody sitting on their phones. They explained every dish as they brought it out. They arrived quite quickly as well. We did not have to worry about anything. 100% recommend this experience and we will definitely be back at some point!
