    Overall the dining experience was lovely, the food for starters entree and mains was delicious but the desserts were definitely underwhelming and we waited ages between main and dessert. The service was friendly and efficient.

    Table service was excellent. Staff very friendly and knowledgeable. They also have gluten free options, even have a seperate fryer just for gluten free food in the kitchen. Food was fresh and tasty and came out pretty quickly. Loved the ocean view as well! Highly recommend!!
