There's a wide variety of seafood, and aside from the disappointing oysters, everything else was very fresh. The cooked dishes were quite good, and the prices were discounted, making it a great value.

The hotel has a lot of history, so the design and layout are more old-fashioned. The seating is spacious and clean. Food-wise, the selection of cold dishes and seafood is not much, but the number of cooked dishes is more than many hotel buffets. The staff service is also very good, as soon as they see that the drink is not full, they immediately refill it.

Restaurant Environment: The environment is beautiful, and there is ample space between tables, so it doesn't feel too crowded. Service: The service staff are friendly, making it easy to order quickly. They also provide a detailed explanation of the menu.

There isn't a lot of food, but it makes up for it with the quality, the desserts are delicious, and the service is truly top-notch. The view is, of course, also first-class.
