recently dined at [Restaurant Name] and had a generally pleasant experience. The service was impressively fast and friendly, making me feel welcome from the moment I walked in. The restaurant’s ambience was delightful, with a cosy and spacious seating layout that added to the overall comfort. The food was good, with each dish showcasing quality ingredients and thoughtful preparation. However, I found the servings to be on the smaller side, which was a bit disappointing. The restaurant’s ambience was delightful, with cosy and spacious seating . Additionally, while the wine selection by the glass was decent, it could benefit from some improvement. A pleasant dining experience with room for a few improvements, and be prepared for smaller portions.

Nick are server was great very knowledgeable and accommodating. He was friendly attentive and helped us enjoy the food by advising we alternate between sweet and savoury. We spent 11/2 hours and throughly enjoyed our day. It wa my birthday and was given a box of truffles which was a lovely gesture. Highly recommend and will be back for dinner at our next celebration! Thank you

A very nice setting and friendly, professional staff. The lobster mousse was magnificent. I then enjoyed a delicious Jerusalem artichoke dish for my main course My two friends chose the pork for their main course but found it practically inedible. Extremely dry and stringy. The waitress apologised and offered a replacement which they declined, as the only choice was the artichoke dish which did not a appeal. ( We all had chosen the $60 two course lunch menu). Despite not eating it they were still charged for it. Two ladies at the next table had a similar experience. ( But took their pork home for their dog!) The a la carte menu is quite expensive, as is the wine list. ( We had a very nice Pinot Grigio-$70 a bottle - which is $21 at Dans!)

Hi Diane, We are so sorry to hear that was your experience with the pork. Hopefully we can welcome you again soon

Outstanding experience, and the food is the centre-piece to the all-around fantastic evening out. The knowledgeable staff, the detail in the design of the food, the chef's attention to perfection and the atmosphere are well worth the price you pay.
