   The food was absolutely sensational. They changed two courses for me. Outstanding. Best meal we have had in a very long time.

   Although the table waiting staff were nice enough, the service was slow. The low point was when we arrived, we were ignored and no greeting of any kind, just checked our name for the booking and walked us upstairs and pointed to the table, not one word out of his mouth. Not a very welcoming start. Food was adequate. Fried calamari was very oily. Fish of the day was nicely cooked and the kale salad was lovely.

   Very tasty food, but very expensive and super super small serves, drinks were very very expensive. Services was good, outstanding view if you get a window seat, not worth going if you don’t.

   In a word, extraordinary. We booked for a Saturday night so we had the six course "feed me"menu and we could not have been happier with everything. Our server was delightful and attentive without being overbearing. Her service was exceptional. The food was brilliant, very creative and prepared with thought and care and beautifully presented. While the portions were small, there was more than enough to fill us up, and the timing of each course saw us spend a delightful two hours savoring the evening. The wine list was small, but offered enough variety to satisfy us. This is a gem of a restaurant in Kiama and we can not recommend it highly enough. Well done to all.

    Great food and excellent service. It’s on the higher side in terms of cost but the food is worth it.
