Service was at best slow. Cocktails even though only two ordered took ages to receive. then waited for over 20 minutes for the bottle of bubbly to arrive and that was after asking for it! The main meal of fish was bland and tasteless. Entree's were ok, Rivoli was dry on the ends, no flavor in the meat. Scollops were very good. Desert was the best meal we ate from the 3 courses. There was one other table in the restaurant being used when we got there and a group outside, so no excuse for the tardy lack of service.

Arrived at 6pm and seated with menus. Staff gave us complimentary bread which was a nice touch and poured a glass of stilled water. We then sat for 45mins waiting to be served. Husband went to the bar to see if we could get a drink and advised a staff member that we hadn't been served and wished to place our order. Another 10mins and our order was finally taken. We then waited another 15 mins and still no drinks. Chased up another staff member who apologised and while speaking our entree was served, but still no drink. By this time it was nearly an hour and a half after arriving that we finally got our drink order! Food was good, but for what you get, we thought it was overpriced. We would have stayed for dessert and another drink but decided to leave. When paying the bill, they honoured the 10% discount for being a local and gave us our drinks as complimentary for the inconvenience although a complimentary drink was included in the discount deal for locals! Couldn't wait to leave. We came expecting a good night and left feeling frustrated. If they intend to charge high end prices then they need to up their game in the service. Don't think I will be going back.

A bit of a drive out of town, but well worth the effort. The food was great, cooked beautifully and tasted fantastic. Waitstaff very attentive, nothing was a bother. Will definately book again.
