Service, drinks, and food were phenomenal. Be prepared to wait. We grabbed cocktails and sat on the bench overlooking oaks, horses and the coast. We got a table after a twenty minute wait (we went early for lunch) but as we left weheard people waiting an hour but they have plenty of shaded seating, a cute little shop and cafe, or grab cocktails during yourwait. It's a amazing atmosphere!
