    I liked a lot for the restaurant. Their customer service was excellent with welcoming smiles and professional manners. A young man and young lady were pleasant. Foods were very delicious and generous portions. Especially onion gratin soup and escargot were excellent ❣️ for appetizers. And main dishes and deserts too 😋 Three of us went there for one’s birthday celebration. Anyway, we had very pleasant evening there.

    I took my client to dinner here. Food was great. I had the petite filet and some steamed veggies, and we split an order of brussels sprouts with bacon. My client had the porterhouse. We enjoyed it very much; service was great, waiter was friendly but not overbearing. This restaurant is now definitely on my list of places to go for business dinners.

    My boyfriend and I both said this was the best dining experience we've had this year. Service could not have been better and the food was delicious and served promptly. We had the coconut prawns as an appetizer and they were scrumptious. Beautiful coastal views! We will be back.
