    We visited Cafe Orca for the first time on Friday night. The restaurant is charming with a beautiful view. The food was absolutely delicious and the service was first class. It is not always easy to find yellowtail on the menu anywhere and that is what I ordered. It was succulent and delicious and my favourite fish by far. I would highly recommend it.
