    Love the view and the food is always tasty. But it always takes so long to get our food and prices are a bit high which I think it’s the reason it’s always pretty empty.

    Service was extremely slow, lunch took 90 minutes. When my steak finally arrived, it was overdone. I ate it anyway because I couldn’t afford to wait any longer. I won’t be returning.
