What John W likes about Kota:
A really special place. Lovely food, primarily of course fish seafood based but there are alternatives which can be interchanged within the menus. Personally I'd go for the 4 course menu rather than the 6 course. Very good wine choices and should you not be driving then the wine flight would be very tempting. Looking forward to being able to visit in 2023 View all feedback.
