The steak was chewy, the lamb dish was tasteless, and the chips were cold. Very disappointing. They weren’t busy so can’t use that as an excuse.

We had a delightful meal for lunch. Extremely tasty, and the portions were generous. The only criticism would be the wait times to get served. I can understand the delay with food when it's busy, but the wait time for drinks was unacceptable. Having said that we enjoyed what we received and I would certainly recommend a visit. Enjoy.

Food was amazing and delicious and a perfect sized meal for lunch. Our table was seated near the window where we enjoyed the view of the winery and hills in the background. Service was very friendly.
