    Monday lunchtime the food was very ordinary and menu rarely changes. Should be a destination restaurant as it all looks fairly glamorous. Good service

    The food at the Waterfront was delicious, the Sea Bass cooked to perfection and Chocolate and Orange torte worth every calorie! Service was great.

    Amazing food, beautifully presented and hot. Lots of choices and quality products all fresh and seasonal. Service was lovely and any additional condiments were made available. Great atmosphere and a live singer. Views across the sea out of this world. Competitive prices for amazing food. Clean environment and amenities.
