From the outside, unpretentious. Only booked there because of proximity to motor camp. What a great experience we had. Mary had the salmon, I the steak. Both served to perfection, a really great Sunday evening meal out!! Meal type: Dinner Price per person: NZ$80–90 Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 4

Second time I have dined here . The first time I had the lamb rump which was nice and very filling. This time we went with friends. Entrée I had the Calamari and was disappointed. It was quite average. Main meal I had the beef cheeks. A substantial meal. Vegetables were good, the cheeks were very tender but very gelatinous which I know they are. Personally I thought it could do with more or some red wine in the sauce. Maybe I'm being picky. I did eat the lot and I was very full and suffered later. The dish was fine but for me was lacking something. My wife also had the cheeks and she was happy enough. Our friends had steaks which they were pleased with and was the way they liked . They also had Chilli prawns for entree which they loved. I tried them , they were nice but more chilli for me . They thought they were perfect. The wines were very nice and had enough to choose from. Would I go back ? Probably , maybe to try their pizzas. Service: Dine in Meal type: Dinner Price per person: NZ$70–80 Food: 4 Service: 4 Atmosphere: 3
