    Came today for my husband's birthday lunch without the kids and it was glorious. Super relaxed environment, tentative staff friendly and the food was delicious. I hope they add the Thai mussels as a regular menu option, I would come back for them. The Seabass was super fresh too! Highly recommend.

    Superb food, lovely atmosphere, attentive staff. Great for what we wanted. I was a tiny bit cold but it was very windy anyway which made for good viewing of the harbour.
