    We had a lovely evening on the patio. It was a cold night and I was worried we wouldn’t be warm enough. We were warm. Our server Alex had great suggestions and was very attentive. The entire staff is pleasant. The food is amazing. I had the lamb chops and my wife had the barramundi both were great. So was their signature Cesar salad and the pineapple upside down cake. We will be back to try the rest of the menu.

    Prix-fix lunch is almost always perfect, & we dine here for lunch at least once a week. Food is reliably fresh & tasty, & the $31 set price includes soup or salad, dessert, coffee/tea, & bread. Service always comes with a friendly smile & is professional especially Lilliam, Michelle, & Alex. Highly recommended. Sit outdoors in the tree room; it's smart to reserve for lunch.
