“ We went for dinner last night and had a wonderful meal, leaving us all very satisfied! The food was fresh and tasty and the flavours were well balanced. The same owners have been there for over 40 years, may they continue to do so for many more. The wait staff were polite and helpful with our allergies. A definite recommendation and would return if in the area again. ”

The 2 of us shared a king prawn, garlic, ginger and shallot stir fry plus a sizzling steak dish accompanied with steamed jasmine rice and finished off with a classic banana fritter and ice cream.
