Restaurant
πŸ‘πŸ‘ The Black Cauldron is a great Sunday date night spot - huge patio in the back and lots of mocktail/cocktail options to try. The theme is clever, but the flavour was right on. Don't be turned off by the strange sounding ingredients - the egg white is whipped into a meringue and really tasty! Desserts...

Marzano
Italian restaurant
🫀 I gave this a 2 instead of 5 for dinner only because we were told that we had to vacate our table after having dinner and drinks as the table was reserved for another group. This was only after being seated for 90 minutes. A 90 minute turnover is unreasonable...if the table had a limited sitting t...

Restaurant
😐 The service was good, the atmosphere was nice, we sat on the patio. I was not happy with the seafood risotto - the rice didn't have that creaminess that makes a risotto, the pieces of fish were too small to distinguish and there were only three mussels in the bowl. I actually asked about the rice an...
