We enjoyed really delicious food at Donovan’s - we loved the specials, particularly the anchovies and kingfish crudo. The service was excellent, our waiter was super friendly and very attentive and our water was always topped up. I’d definitely recommend dining here, although the only challenge was that we were seated by the window facing the sun and it was uncomfortably warm as the lightweight blinds gave little shelter from the heat!
