Wonderful Beef Medallions and Tomahawk Pork Chop! The garlic mashed potatoes packed a wallop and the mushroom ragu was excellently flavoured.

The service staff were very good, but the kitchen was backed up and it took over 1.5 hours before they brought our food!

Very poor service when busy, like abysmal. They seem to recognize this and not really try to fix. They put more effort into arguing over clear bill and ordering errors than service. Would not go back personally. Amazing view and food was not bad though.

We loved the cocktail varieties, yummy. The fish and chips was excellent, the batter thin and crisp. The service was very good although I believe that they could use more staff as the servers were working very hard.
