    This is an excellent restaurant we have been to on many occasions and never been disappointed. The food is delicious, prepared to perfection and well presented. The wait staff are attentive and professional and the experience is unhurried so that you can enjoy a relaxed meal at your own pace. The wine list is unpretentious and great value with a number of wines we have sought out and purchased for ourselves at home. The atmosphere is conducive to table conversations and feels inviting without being loud. Portion sizes are very adequate without over-facing and the side dishes are excellent. This is our favourite local restaurant by a large margin.

A good easy menu selection for lunch. The food was great well prepared cooked to perfection presented well. I highly recommend a visit.
