We didn't actually eat as we were dining at Kate's Casa. However on previous occasions, the little tapas peices have been delicious, and perfectly formed for finger food. Staff are always delightful, efficient, chatty and interesting. They are a veritable UN of young people travelling in Australia, but always with attention to detail and a positive approach to serving the customer.
