"It's okay, nice view, expensive. Food was presented well but kinda a lacked depth"
(was my review a year & half ago 2018, 'was' 🌟 🌟⭐)
Fast forward to tonight. Food was tops. Loved the portions cause I could try more. Raw menu is exciting. Able to try 5-6 dishes and liked the ability to have the same quality throughout the variety of cuisine.

Had a lovely seafood platter for lunch. I'm not usually a fan of clams as they are usually chewy and lack flavour but these were the best I've had by far, thoroughly enjoyed them. All the seafood was so fresh and meaty, best I've had in a long time. Had the pink lady cocktail/rocktail and really enjoyed that as well. Didn't want to leave!

Great takeaway food during COVID-19 restrictions, with a reasonable range of food and a fabulous location. Coffee was decent, and really great for taking with snacks for a breach front walk. Dogs were allowed in the outside seating area only. Inside seating was available although not open during COVID-times.

Had lunch here on good Friday, had 12 oysters, calamari, fish of the day, bottle of wine and a few extras. Amazing food and location. We had good seats but when the sun hit it got a bit hot. We got offered even better seats (without us asking). Amazing pro active service made our experience even better than it already was. Will be back!

The serve is painfully small, and quite salty. Don't be fooled by the pictures it's the camera that makes it 'look' big the seafood to share for 2. Maybe you are on diet you can come here. For me for the price of $124 and also the 'raw' platter also looks sad. For $84. For $200+ you can eat at crown conservatory Buffet family of 4 and have some change left. But after COVID you get what you get. Waitress was good, dont get me wrong it's the food not good enough for the price. :)
