    The services are great, very polite and professional. Due to our diet, we asked to change the menu a bit, and the chef was able to accommodate without additional charges. Told us the price when going over the specials ( very few restaurants do so). The food is very good, Oyster is the best I have had for while. Fish was done just right with lots of flavors. My husband had steak and was very happy with it. We also had three appetizers, they are all very delicious! This is our new favorite restaurant!!

    Food was impeccable. Busy obviously because it was Christmas Day, however it felt like the wait staff were rushing around and that rubbed off on us. Took my bread plate away before I had even finished with it (along with my starter player whilst my wife was still eating!). Price was very reasonable especially for Christmas Day, however the servers need to slow down. Several of our requests were forgotten several times and it was hard to catch the eye of the wait staff to chase them up as they were so focussed on (literally) running around. In a nutshell, the food could not be faulted. The wait staff need to relax a little more and the experience could be so much better.
