    Great ambiance, service was impeccable. Steaks were ok have had better, but nicely prepared. Was way over priced for what we had. If you do dine here you won’t get much change out of $125 US per person and that’s without any starters or desserts! Won’t be rushing back.

    My Aunt and I left our resort in order to enjoy a great meal and we were not disappointed! The setting was amazing with wonderful views. The service from the hostess all the way to the server was phenomenal. We felt truly cared for and it showed in the drinks and food. We will definitely return and also try the other fairmont restaurants!
