    Our experience at Salis is always fabulous. The food is A grade and the ambience is perfect. The lighting makes you feel so relaxed. Last night our waitress was so good at her job. But we have never had a waitress/waiter at Sails that wasn’t. See you again in a few night Sails 🙌

    I had the pleasure of dining at the club restaurant 1st floor during my travels with my Service Dog, and I couldn’t have been more impressed. The staff were not only experienced and professional but also incredibly respectful, ensuring I felt completely comfortable and welcomed. The breathtaking view alone is worth the visit—it’s truly unforgettable. The food exceeded my expectations, with every dish beautifully prepared and full of flavor. What stood out most, however, was the warm and friendly team working during the holidays. Their kindness, helpfulness, and genuine smiles made the experience even more special. I can’t recommend this place highly enough!

    It was a very busy night but the food was absolutely perfect. The seafood, chicken and steaks were cooked exactly to our requirements. Have never had a bad meal here to be honest. Took a while to get drinks from the bar but staff were polite and efficient. Desserts were yummy too and our table of 6 had a good night.
