We booked the Mother’s Day lunch. The food was delicious and plentiful. The ladies were treated to a rose each and a complimentary cocktail from the roaming cart. The staff were very attentive. We had two people with special dietary requirements. They were both catered for perfectly. The views are spectacular. Highly recommend this venue.

The only dish I did not enjoy was the spaghetti with crab and seafood. I was unable to find any crab in the dish, and it mainly consisted of sauce. However, the rest of the food was delicious, perfectly prepared, and very enjoyable.
