You know a place is going to be great to eat at when you can smell the outdoor BBQ being used by one of the chefs to griddle the aubergines for their smoky baba ghanoush! It did not disappoint. Not only is this a fabulous location for a restaurant with sweeping views of the sea, but the decor is also brilliantly appointed. Relax in one of the super comfy armchairs after eating. Lovely cocktails and a good wine list are a nice compliment to a reassuringly short but well thought out menu. There are also daily specials. It would have been easy to eat everything if only time and an expanding waistline would allow! The highlights were of course the baba ghanoush with a delicious focaccia and a nicely spiced seafood pil pil with crab, prawn, clams and mussels.

If I had to rate this place for just this one time I'd give it full marks. Good coffee and a lovely piece of cake made by their chef. Trouble is we have been there three times and on none of these times were they open for coffee or lunch. This time the outside van would be open 'in about 15 minutes'. I think we would still be waiting!

Love the atmosphere here and been lots over the years but…….now…..£6 for a small brownie, £6 for 6 olives in a pot, £4 for an average coffee, £5 for a small Piece of cake. No gluten free or dairy free options for our son who has allergies. Wasn’t blown away by the quality. Won’t be back sadly.

The food was all consistently excellent, as was outdoor atmosphere. Sea Bream was amongst best we've ever had. Great job. All cooked outdoors over open fire. Will be back!

This place is in a fantastic location but the prices are absolutely extortionate and the food is average bordering on mediocre. For the prices we paid I would have liked to have been blown away with the quality and taste but I most certainly was not. It was only the views that took our breath away along with the bill. I will leave it for you to make up your own mind but would not recommend if wanting something special.
