The food was outstanding and beautifully presented, complemented by a highly knowledgeable staff. The entire experience was fantastic, and Koey and Andrea were both exceptional! We highly recommend Circa over Britannia, as we wouldn't categorize the latter as fine dining.

We had the 5 course chef's menu paired with matching wines at $180 pp. Everything was truly exceptional and memorable, including the amuse bouches, but if the degustation is outside your budget, the Cherry Glazed Duck Breast was the pick of the menu. So impressed by the pairings that we went back the following day to the Peppertree cellar door and bought two of the wines from the dinner.
