    We have eaten here many times, and have never had a bad meal or experience. The food is of excellent quality, and beautifully presented. The service is friendly, knowledgeable and efficient. When the weather is dodgy, we sit inside, but sitting on the terrace is our favorite. Highly recommended.

    The high-back chairs are disconcerting and detract from the ambience. Architecture and art/decor outstanding, except for floral arrangements on the tables.

    The Vineyard Terrace is a firm favourite. It is unmatched for setting - the view of the mountain is incredible! The omelettes were excellent; the eggs benedict certainly not the best in the area but ok. We will definitely keep coming back for celebratory occasions. Really appreciate the warm service and beautiful setting.
