    Our server was helpful and accommodated a change to the menu for an allergy. He was patient and around just enough. The food was so delicious and flavourful. My favourite was the taro chips and dip. The prawns were also delish. Even though we were seated on the outdoor patio in December, it was warm enough. Just wish there were slightly more substantial chairs. We were seated on very small stools.

    Lovely waiter, nice open space in the back, there were four of us in our party and we were able to catch up without being rushed or interrupted. The food came out promptly, and the drinks were great. All in all a great spot for good food . Thank you!
