| - Took my husband here for his 25th birthday. Nice to get out of busy areas and drive along fields, even if it was just 20 minuted from my house.
We were greeted by a waiter who was there by himself, there was one table departing and another just ordering.
We were promptly seated by the window looking out into the back terrace, which was really nice.
As my husband sat down he kind of fumbled a bit because one of the chair legs gave way, luckily he stood up in time. The waiter explained that it was broken last week, and the owner keep putting it back out on the floor... :s not a great impression to start with.
BUT our waiter was funny, enjoyable, attentive and made us hold hands LOL
He made up for the first impression very quickly. We ordered:
$31 antipasto
Came with bocconcini & tomatoes, grilled veggies, prosciutto, olives, mushroom, pickled vegetables. Huge platter, was delicious and was practically full afterwards. More than enough for two! Everything seemed very fresh.
Free bread came out, has poppy seeds on top and a glaze of olive oil/ Was ok.
$54 seafood for two
Came with 2 lobsters, 8 mussels, 2 tiger shrimps, 2 salmon filets, 2 tilapia filets! OMG everything was hot and fresh, our waiter came by and recommended we eat the lobster first since cold it becomes hard to remove from the shell (* nice of him). Also came with roasted potatoes and grilled asparagus, but we didn't touch those since we wanted to eat the seafood. Really full to the max after these two platters.
$11 house white
- Not very good house white, especially for $11, the waiter did give my hubby a smaller second glass for his birthday which was really nice of him.
Too Full for dessert but they did have cheesecake/tiramisu. Didn't feel rushed to leave after paying the bill, the waiter even shook our hands as we left.
Technically it should be a 3.75 star, but can't rate that so we bumped it up to 4 stars.
Overall
Over priced except we had a voucher!
Place is definitely more of a wedding venue, service and place settings all reflect that.
Really nice environment, he buildings are white, there's a small chapel n the side, some construction going on. They really need to upgrade their decor, floors and furnishing because you can see it is long over used. This place is definitely not boasting when it isn't a wedding but is a nice alternative to other dining restaurants.
We went with lower expectations because of other online reviews on how this place has gone downhill, luckily didn't meet with the blond manager everyone hates, but we did leave smiling.
