I just want to explain that the reason I gave such a high noise level was due to an event being held on the compound, prior to that the ambience and noise was very calm and relaxed.

The food was great, tasty, large portions, the decor beautiful and the tables far apart enough for private conversation and an intimate feel. The service was satisfactory.

Although there was a wait for the food and not alot of people were actually dining, it was worth the wait. The food was amazing. Each person in my part of 7 enjoyed their respective dishes which included the Ribeye, lamb, pork ribs and shrimp and the skillet pasta. There was a bar downstairs that was very noisy and took away from what I think is intended to be one of the fine dining restaurants on the island.
