About

This spot is a total mixed bag. Most folks rave about the killer harbour views and sunset vibes, but the food quality is often slammed as bland or overpriced. Service is hit-or-miss, with some guests feeling ignored while others get top-tier care. It feels like a tourist trap to some, yet a decent buffet to others. Definitely check your booking details, as communication seems to be a weak point.

Views are spot on, but the food is just okay.

Staff were lovely, but the kitchen let them down.

Don't expect fine dining, it's standard buffet fare.
