We were seated at a table with an amazing view! I ordered a mocha and a roasted veggie omelette, both of which were fantastic. The mocha was delightful, and the omelette was arguably the best I’ve ever had! The roasted vegetables—squash, carrots, and zucchini—paired perfectly with the omelette, and the macadamia nut pesto added a wonderful touch. The service was quick, and the staff were very friendly. We had a wonderful experience overall, and I highly recommend this place!

The restaurant was clean and provided contactless order. We scan a bar using our phones, viewed the menu and placed the order. Waiters are still available if you prefer to give them your order. I would definitely go there again. Highly recommend. Parking is available in the back.

I ordered a pineapple pizza, which was absolutely delicious—the crust was crispy, and the balance of spicy and sweet toppings was perfect. I also had tacos; the combination of vegetables, meat, and cheese was fantastic. The decor was clean and beautiful, and we had a stunning view of the sea and sunset. The highlight was spotting a whale in the water! This was my first visit, but it definitely won’t be my last!
