    We absolutely love the theme dinners. The staff really get in to it and make the dining room shine! The chef and kitchen staff also seem to really enjoy introducing the menu items per course. Thr food and drink are always delicious. The valet people are also wonderfully patient and helpful when we have trouble with the app. Thank you all for making these nights out so special. Cheers!

    We sat on the outdoor patio. It was a beautiful evening and the view is amazing. The Wagyu Tacos and the Truffle Fritas were delicious, while the cauliflower as just ok. The drinks were beautifully crafted, and the Hibiscus Collin’s is the best version of a Tom Collin’s I’ve ever had. The servers were attentive. A great evening out!

    Terra Tempe’s service as usual was extremely good and the staff was very courteous and friendly. I have been there consistently since their doors open, I was disappointed in the Mexican Prawns this years. I frequently order them but this time they dumped so maany hot pepper flakes into the dish that not only I but every one at our table had a hard time eating; way to spicy. Many of the dishes have been high quality and we love them but someone got carried away with the heat. The chicken sandwich was excellent and the chicken and dumplings was poor. This was a new menu just started a couple days prior to our arrival. I know they have the abilities to prepare much better food than we received on this night.
