    Room and ambience very relaxing. Cocktail and wine selection delicious. Halibut good but could have been tastier. Too many artichokes. Brownie for dessert was crusty but ice cream delicious. Service very attentive.

    Outstanding Service, lovely food and charming atmosphere. Burgers, truffle fries, Desert Board and Gingerbread Chai Latte were very tasty. We were seated outside under heaters which was perfect thanks to good weather. They offered Seasonal Cocktails and they were passing hors d'oeuvres while we were waiting to be seated. This cafe is situated in Terrain and it was so beautifully decorated for Christmas including a snow machine. This was my 2nd visit and Restaurant staff are excellent.

    I have been to Arethusa’s before and had an amazing experience. I took my two daughters last night and I was so happy to have shared the experience with them. They were extremely impressed with the service and the quality of the food. This is surely a 5 star place for me. ❤️
