We have a lovely Christmas lunch at The Atlantic. The set menu was great. There was a wide selection of food to suit everyone's taste, plus the additions, if you chose to do so, was a great touch and made the menu even better. This is main why we chose to go to The Atlantic over other restaurants that were offering a Christmas day event. The quality of food didn't disappoint. It was amazing. I loved everything I ate. Actually, my husband and I are looking forward to going back soon because we had such a great foodie experience. The wait staff were friendly, which was nice. We liked out waiter. I guess I expect a higher level of sophistication overall in service but it is difficult to get wait staff at the best of time and then again in a tourist environment where back packers are looking for work....However, everyone seemed to be in a good mood, which was nice. The restaurant was pretty noisy though, I must admit.....but then again, it was Christmas Day and we are all there to celebrate, so I can't complain... Definitely look forward to going back. Thank you for a wonderful Christmas.

Some food was overcooked, some was under. The quality of the fish and shellfish were below expectations, particularly at $220 pre fixe per adult.

Waited over an hour for drinks: food arrived before drinks arrived. It looked like this was a night they were very short-staffed and not well-managed.

The seafood 🦞 platter for 2 was amazingly delicious and the service was quick. Would highly recommend the Atlantic and I will go again. The French bottle of Pinot Gris was the perfect combination and everything went well.
