The ambience, food and wine list was excellent. The duck main course is the best duck dish I've ever eaten. The food service was slow and there were issues such having to get waiters attention to order, slow clearing of courses and food getting delivered to the wrong tables even when it was quite. I would however go back for the food.

Good great, service terrible. We waited 45min for a drink. Plates sat finished on table for 25min. When we got the bill we weren’t given the choice to add a tip but it was already done which I found offensive given terrible service.

My partner and I really enjoyed the Omnia lunch experience - excellent food and service as well as very pleasant ambience. My only minor criticism is the noise level. Nevertheless, this was one of the best lunch experience we have had for some time.

Loved our night. Our guest had the pork and loved it, I loved the exquisite taste of the ravioli but serve was too small, my partner had the lamb and caviar for starter. Great service off the sommelier and our waiter. We appreciated the 25% discount as a resident of Capitol Grand.
