    We had dinner here and this was a fifth or sixth visit for us. The service is always outstanding and the food is phenomenal. The chef always does a great job with a variety to choose from in each service. We look forward to our next dinner at this lovely restaurant.

    Luxurious personalized experience. Our waiter Shaun was on top of every detail. We never felt rushed. Size of restaurant felt intimate rather than crowded. Food was delicious with 3 special shoutouts to the salad, the Hereford filet and the licorice ice cream. Our children gifted us a certificate to give this place a whirl, and we hope to return.

    Excellent service and excellent food. Only 11 or so tables so getting a reservation can be challenging at times but it’s a must try in Dunedin if you appreciate great food in a nice setting.

    I took a special friend for his birthday knowing this would be a treat. We were not disappointed. The service was excellent and of course it’s a truly beautiful space,. The food was unparalleled. Our server provided helpful guidance which we followed happily. Cauliflower bisque, their own wonderful salad, and the best filet and duck prepared anywhere. The wine suggestion and white truffle cake were pure decadence.
