We came with friends for the Grape Escape weekend. The food was spectacular. I had the duck breast with pork belly and chorizo on a bed of white beans. Great combination of flavours. My wife had the veal medallions and they just melted in the mouth. Bests Shiraz was outstanding and the service was efficient and friendly. Well done team!... More

I would have liked to share an opinion of my dining experience in this establishment, but unfortunately the arrogance and abruptness of what I assume to be the owner never saw me as far as even being seated. Customer service and people skills... If you don´t have it... Pay someone who does.

We went here for dinner on our first night and we were blown away by the quality of the food. We were so impressed that we went back there a couple of nights later and were not disappointed. The place was full, so lots of people watching and atmosphere. It took some time to get the food to the table... More

Surprisingly good meal in such a remote area. We were lucky to get in, but make a reservation if you can so you make sure you get in. Meal was very tasty and well presented.
