    When I booked, I choses an outdoor setting, however, as the weather turned, I asked for an inside table - As it turned out, it would have been perfectly fine outside. The staff were attentive, polite and helpful. I was surprised when a decorated plate of icecream turned up with a candle and they sang Happy Birthday to me. The food was 'top shelf' and we will certainly be back!

    While normally this venue is for those seeing a show at QPAC, this venue is also excellent for any occasion. All of the dishes we ordered were at the perfect portion for sharing, well seasoned, and fresh. The servers were also happy to accomodate us as we were the last ones out for the evening. We will happily visit again

    The food here is fantastic, the bugs were delicious - melt in the mouth - cooked to perfection - came out of the shell so easy!!! The marinara is packed full of a wide variety of seafood - awesome flavour. The terrace dining makes for a quite relaxed environment, but I'm sure later in the evening it's energetic. Our visit was pre-concert, so timing was of the essence, we arrived at the concert easily on time.
