I'm currently on holiday here from Oz & had heard good reports from my family. Ate here last week for lunch. Beautiful meal, salad with satay chicken, coffee was spot on, other meals were all enjoyed. We were keen to give the Sat nite a spin. Crostini, beef cheeks, salmon, crispy spuds & greens, pear tartin. All meals absolutely delicious. Terrific service, great location especially for summer, it was busy but not noisy, as the evening became cooler the large doors were closed. Cocktails were great & we really enjoyed the hot chocolates at the end, you could substitute a dessert for one if you still want a sweet. It's not cheap but if you want to eat somewhere with a point of difference & and the extra attention paid to preparation & presentation then this is it. The cafe is very popular during the day. Highly recommend.
