    We had a booking at the restaurant for 9 people, we were told it would be a Fathers day Buffet but it ended up being a Set menu, which did not live up to standard, the potatoes where overcooked and the Fish starter was salty(overseasoned) There was no rice in the main. Bread that was on the table was no fresh, it was actually stale. Lastly the Cremebrule had Elder Flower flavor which over powered the the creamy taste of a Cremebrule Also the Virgin Pinocolada was bland with no flavor. Our bill was R4950 which was very high considering that the food was just not up to scratch, The reason we made the booking was because we where of the opinion we would get the Buffet which we so enjoyed last year at Mothers Day. We are extremely disappointed .

    I enjoyed the food but the service was very poor the waitress wasn't even friendly she never introduced herself she didn't even came to check if we are enjoying anything no the drinks they took time most of the time we would lift our hands to look for her attention when we wanted certain service any way the place is beautiful wth beautiful view but the waitress wish l knew her name but l don't know her name she was horrible if lm to say even wen we ask her did the bill balance and we left ten percent tho wanted to leave more but her attitude was just a total turn off
