    The terrace always has a lovely ambiance however the bar staff who took my order left a lot to be desired. Initially forgot our drinks order and then gave us the incorrect order including serving alcohol when I am not able to drink at the moment and another drink that has an ingredient I was allergic too. A mistake is understandable however it was the trying to cover it up Another staff member was able to fix it quickly but only after an extensive wait

    Great views and design. Good location. We never got to eat because we left early. We'll take it as holiday mistake but it was the worse hospitality experience in a long time. Don't book a high table, apparently it comes with self service and food can only be ordered if the place is not crowded. The ambiance suggest high quality hospitality but unfortunately that expectation was not met.

    Our visit was extremely disappointing. For our anniversary we wanted to celebrate somewhere special but ended up with a small and extremely average tasting Margarita costing $32 so after our first think decided not to try the bar style menu for such a special day.

    No one was welcoming waiters quite rude. Paid for my food on the way out but wasn’t allowed to leave until everyone on the table paid was quite embarrassing I was the only one that got stopped not sure if it was a racial thing I am brown and realised I was the only one that got stopped.

    Amazing location, fabulous views, great food and service. The music was on the loud side which made conversation difficult. Otherwise, an excellent venue.
