    Friendly and efficient staff from Maitre D to table clearers. Vast selection of food items beautifully presented in a perfect lay out. Only one comment on food - perhaps guests could be offered a choice of grilling prawns in garlic/lemon/ or piri-piri butter. Adequately sized prawns but little flavour. Overall a great experience. Will definitely return.
