We went to Montrachet for our anniversary and it was superb. The service, the food, the ambience, I couldn’t fault any of it. The staff were attentive and engaged, the food was magnificent - crab meat souffle, escargot and duck a la orange, all fantastic. We will definitely be back. Highly recommended

Beautiful pizza and a nice setting outside under the fig tree. The staff are great - very friendly and switched on. Basic wine list, but we picked a nice SA Shiraz to drink with the really good pizza! It's a great place to pop into before or after an event - there are lots of event venues around there and it's well placed for that.
