“Best duck I’ve ever had”

Outstanding food. Had the twice cooked duck with plum sauce, rice and green veggies. Best duck I have ever had. Had sticky date pudding for dinner, and the butterscotch sauce was the highlight there. American waitress was very nice and attentive. Will be back. “

“Never disappoints”

All I can say is this restaurant never disappoints such amazing food / service & everything. It was the second time we have been here and they always get everything perfect. The steak is the best we have ever had and that includes our travels overseas. Well done and keep up the good work
