The service is really good. Food was good. Pork belly was really nice, crisp and tender with a delicious sauce. The rib eye was a little bit of a let down. It was cooked right (medium rare, as requested) but was a bit tough and the cut had way too much fat.

Still fabulous, fish of the day was so yummy with corn salad and pumpkin gnocchi, and the ginger creme brulee is def worth a go!!
I have spent a number if years travelling for work and therefore have eaten some very average food in some very average hotel restaurants.... But to my delight, not this time. Service was great, more than happy for me to take my time deciding. Menu quite short but still had trouble making a decision. Asparagus and pumpkin soup or cured salmon??
Would def recommend the cured salmon....so many flavours but none overpowering, mmmwah, soo delish!
Main was ok, but not great (fish of day with saffron risotto) but still decided on dessert... Brandy snaps with chantilly cream reminded me of the 70's but went for the fried bread pudding. Didn't need it but was a great end to the meal. Def give this place a go if you are in the vicinity of Wellington!
The service was excellent and atmosphere perfect for any occasion. The food was really outstanding in taste and overall balance of flavors
so well done kitchen, great effort and I enjoyed looking at it as well as consuming every mouthful. The price is average, but if you balance that against the quality of the ingredients and flavor then I have to say it becomes competitive.
I recommend this as a great place to eat on any occasion and will definitely be going again. Most enjoyable high quality dining experience.
And we did go again for our wedding anniversary and the comments above I would make again. My wife booked the Chef's tasting menu and when the first dish came out it was cured Salmon, my wife loved it and I hate Salmon so politely asked for a switch and without any negative words or posture it was switched with a short time to a delicious pate with bread crisps and other tasty treats....outstanding in service and food flavours. The dishes came out one after the other with exceptional service and tasted like ......go and try it as it is superb and words will fail those tastes, we loved the evening and to top all there was a special gesture at the end of the evening that made it a perfect anniversary dinner! Highly recommended for any occasion and yes will be going back soon :-)
