This place was disgusting. The worst food I have ever had. They have the most beautiful location but the food is way overpriced and awful. I had the chicken caesar salad for $17 which had no chicken, mixed lettuce leaves (hasn't anyone there heard of cos lettuce?) and fatty pieces of bacon, all in a bowl about the size a child would eat out of.
My husband had the chicken burger which was also less than great, and expensive for the portion. They charged extra for fries which were undercooked and soggy. Save yourself the money and take a picnic. The food would be much better.
Trying to decide on a place to have a birthday lunch with the girls, we decided this would be a great place so the kids could play, while the girls ate. The view divine, Location Divine. This cafe has not right to have Le' in their name. The food wasn't too bad for what it was, nothing more than milk bar fare, we were charged if we wanted out food to be served on a plate, $1 extra per plate. $2.50 corkage to be given a plastic cup, ridiculous.
Then one of the members of our party was served up salad with plastic in it, and had to ask for her coffee for free as compensation, which was met with rudeness from the staff. All in all this place was like dining inside a comedy show. Never again, unless they lift there game. With the location they are in they could do much better. In a word embarrasing.
The view is charming and the staff are friendly, and create a relaxed atmosphere with their very down to earth nature. When booking I asked if they do a seafood platter, they specially ordered one! For $120 the value was amazing. The platter could have fed four adults, the quality of the seafood was excellent and the platter wasn't 75% battered food like most places. The staff ever obliging, let us take what we didn't eat home! Loved it.
Birthday party of 20 people. menu is confusing, not clear which dish is entree and which is main. Ordered salt and pepper squid for entree to share with partner, was not even enough for one person but another party member ordered the same with much larger serving. Main meal was some chicken dish with salad and bacon, my partner had eight half cherry tomatoes and plenty of green salad, I had no tomatoes and not much green at all. No consistency with serves at all, the food did not match the price.
Went here for a lazy breakfast with friends when the rain began to pour down. Even though the place was quite busy when we arrived, very helpful staff were quick at accommodating us at no notice. Food was above average and quite tasty but we didn't try much in the way of a meal. Will definitely be visiting again.
