I'm surprised at all of the 5-star reviews to be honest. Had the banquet and I thought everything was quite mediocre and underwhelming given the price. Service was very slow too. It's a shame because the view is nice, but don't think I'd bother trying this place again.

This is a fabulous fine dining restaurant. The view is outstanding, service is next level. The food is a little pricey and don't expect huge meals, as they are quite small. They have the most extensive wine list which is great. We chose the banquet which really is a bit of a sampler. The dessert menu is small but gorgeous choices. Overall, yes I would go back

The waitress was very good and we were given a great table. I did try to tip her and told her to roll it up by 10% but then it didn't seem to come through the machine and I only noticed this morning. I thought the quality of the food was generally very good but the menu was lighter on the seafood choices I would go for eg some options in the starters would have liked in the entre (a little bigger) and similarly entre to mains, though a double bug dumpling serve on one plate was accommodated. My wife greatly enjoyed the Bouillabaisse and the crab starters. I enjoyed the starter scallops and the bug dumplings (double portion). The later I thought could have been a little bit bigger but the taste made up for it. It was a little noisy where we were but that might have just been the table next to us. Overall very happy and would definitely recommend it to a friend.

We have ordered five banquets plus a seafood platter. The platter was very nice and expected for the value. The banquet however was disappointing in regard to a 20 to 30 minute wait in between each serving, which meant being there for over two hours and not completing a full meal was very annoying and very quiet over it and not hungry anymore by the time the last course- being the heaviest- is served. Our waiter dropped cutlery on us twice. Definitely would not recommend, I ordered a lychee martini which was not on the menu, but my request seemed to be not possible till I asked a second time. For such a high quality fine dining restaurant paying the fine dining prices I would expect a higher quality than this
