    Our dinner at Marcel was the best dinner experience I’ve had in 40+ years. The food was excellent but what took it over the top was how hospitable the staff was. Every staff member we interacted with was friendly and welcoming. It was like a family member who wanted to share their food with you. We weren’t rushed and enjoyed just sitting and chatting with ourselves and the staff. They treated everyone like a VIP. I encourage everyone to try Marcel and I’ll gladly recommend it and come back.

    For a pub, the food was surprisingly very good. My grouper was excellent and my colleague’s salmon was the same. Another mate had the wings which were crispy with a hit of spice in the coating. We chose this spot due to location as our hotel was less than a block away. We were all very pleased with the food. Service was friendly and attentive.
