From the moment we arrived, Skye at the hostess stand made us feel incredibly welcome with her warm and friendly demeanor. The entire service team was exceptional, but a special thank you to Norm, Heidi, and Tim for going above and beyond to ensure our lunch was absolutely perfect. The food was nothing short of incredible – every dish was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. Whether it’s the impeccable service or the amazing culinary experience, Joe Fortes continues to set the bar high. This was truly a lunch to remember, and I can’t wait to return. Highly recommend!

We all had a great time. Our server Mary was so friendly, helpful, and accommodating. The food all came out in a timely manner for our group of 23 and the place had enough background noise to seem busy but wasn't overly loud so we didn't have to shout over the noise to converse with our dinner guests. The view was great and the food was also excellent.

Michelin recommendation well earned! My friend and I shared an appetizer and dessert on either side of our entrees. The carpaccio was presented in an interesting way and was delicious. My friend had the scallops which were amazing, I had the loong kong chicken, a new taste for that was well prepared. We shared the pavlova for dessert which was perfect. All of this was over a shared bottle of Pinot Noir accompanied by doting attention from the sommelier. An amazing night out; highly recommended.
