Absolutely spectacular meal. We came here for a Christmas buffet lunch and were gobsmacked at how every single element was cooked perfectly. The prawns, salads, baked fish, ham… all so tasty. We concluded that the chefs here must be so experienced, they’ve mastered every dish. The service was also top notch, warm and polite. And just as my 4 year old started to lose patience, out came Santa with personalised gifts for all the children! Her mood changed quickly haha. I would recommend this restaurant to anyone, especially their Christmas lunch.

Went as a large group and everything was pretty on point. Decent service, great food. They could do with some more interesting beers and a few natural wines. Disappointed the one menu item I was excited for wasn't available. I assume seasonal availability had something to do with it. Overall, I'd go back.
