What travelers say:
The atmosphere by the fire is nice and if the weather is not too cold it is nice to eat outside. Plenty of parking in the restaurant and if there is no parking you can park on the street. The food was delicious and they forgot one of our starters but then brought it out with the main course so it was not a big deal. Friendly and considerate staff

The atmosphere next to the stove is very good, if the weather is not cold, it is very good to eat outdoors. The restaurant has plenty of parking spaces. If there is no parking space, you can also park the car on the roadside street. The food here was delicious, they forgot one of the antecedents we ordered but then served it with the main course so it wasn’t a big problem. Staff was considerate and friendly
My wife and I first came here last night for dinner and they were impressed from the first moment we entered the restaurant. The service here was great, the waiter assigned to our table was very attentive, polite, friendly and knew a lot. The food here is very delicious. We are vegetarian, so sometimes it is difficult to find a good vegetarian food. The things we ordered are very beautiful and very delicious. We will come back here again and recommend it to our friends and family.
Today I only ordered a fore-food, a staple and a dessert because I was alone. The price is a bit expensive but good value for money. My pre-dinner is "soup of the day", This is a pumpkin soup with bread slices. The pumpkin soup is not as sweet and rich as I believe, but it is a better fore dish. The soup tastes very light and a bit sour, but the pumpkin is not so obvious. So I think it's the chef's lemon juice for appetizers. Try it carefully and you will find the sweetness of the pumpkin hidden under this natural sour taste. A red onion is also sprinkled on the pumpkin soup for color matching, aroma and rich taste. Unfortunately I didn't ask for the aroma. Then I found the real highlight - the bread slices. The bread was just right, not hard, and the crispness did not affect the softness of the inside. It was delicious to dip in the soup and put a piece of butter. I personally think that even if nothing is good, it is delicious. So I give it a rating: "This is a good dish, but not a perfect appetizer." The main course is fried salmon with vegetables and roast potatoes with lemon sauce. If the full score is five points, this fried salmon is enough to make me score five points, the fish skin is crisp and added to the taste, the fish is soft and juicy, this is almost perfect, can not be picky, even compared to lemon juice has become something optional. The assorted vegetables in the side dish are very fresh but the potatoes are much inferior - the outer layer is not crisp and the inside is very dry, which reduces the whole dish Dessert is chocolate pudding (personally feels like cake) with vanilla ice cream and nuts. The taste is very rich, the pudding is hot and should be made now. If you eat with the pudding, there will be a feeling of ice and fire, but I do not recommend it, because it is too exciting, it is best not to try diners with bad teeth. Personally recommend scooping a spoonful of pudding and a little ice cream entrance. The disadvantage is that it is too sweet, even a little irritating, and the throat is a bit uncomfortable after eating. The above is my personal evaluation of this meal. Standing on the taste of the Chinese, I said that although there are flaws this time, it may still be a wonderful experience. Finally, review its service, which is appropriate and will ask for your feedback after you finish your meal.
It was directly in a historic suburban villa. The dining environment was very warm. The weather was very good that day. We chose to sit in the courtyard and eat. They all said that when they came to beautiful New Zealand, they must try the famous mantis shrimp. Well, it may be called lobster. The grilled shrimp in this store is very delicious and the rating is very high. It is worth a try. The raw materials are fresh and there are many seafood. The chef said that they also have their own vegetable garden.
It feels very good, the environment is very good, authentic Western two meals are eaten as a meal, two meals are eaten as a meal. . . . . . .
