The view from The Terrace is beautiful. The decor is lovely and the drinks menu have lots of great choices. The biggest negative was the volume of the music. It was well above conversation level. It did not help we were seated beneath a speaker. I would not recommend for a dinner if you wanted to chat.

A wonderful night out at a fabulous location. The staff were excellent at making both of us feel very welcome with their friendly attention. From the greeter at the front door to all the wait staff and marvellous chefs, thank you. It was a special anniversary for us and we definitely chose the right place to celebrate the occasion.
