He even sat down with us for a personalized touch to explain the menu! Everyone walking in said that their hotel recommended it as the top place to eat in town and I can see why!! Here you get amazing one on one service and attention. Great suggestions through the evening from drinks, entrees to mains! We started with refreshing mojitos with incredibly fresh mint! Then we had a local wine! We had the Brazilian cheese bread with a yummy dipping sauce. My friend ordered the steak and I had the lamb. They brought out a plate with various levels of spicy chilis with their own unique flavor and heat profile. My heart felt filled (I love spicy things)! When I told them I was looking for more heat, he brought out a Brazilian ghost pepper or a Carolina reaper -- it was Russian roulette because he didn't know which one he grabbed! Loved the spicy homemade hot sauce with the steak which my friend so graciously shared! The lamb has a more delicate taste which would be overpowered by the various chilis. Still loved the supple and tender meat! We ordered dessert and of course the whole restaurant was singing happy birthday! Which dessert did I go with? You got it the chocolate lava cake volcano with homemade chocolate chili sauce! We had a fabulous experience here and I 100% recommend you try... But it does get super busy so I highly recommend getting reservations in advance!

What a lovely find. Beautiful restaurant, the service was excellent, as was the food. I can see…read morethis place as a hang-out for friends or after work meeting place. I started with the fried cauliflower, which is very addictive. Light curry spice in a creamy aioli. For my entree, I had the miso pork belly, with pea puree & baby carrots. My mother had their burger with a side of onion rings, though the burger came with a good amount of large steak fries (chips). Our friend had the lamb chop starter. It came with a lot of bones, so it could easily be a main. It was in miso as well. All was very well prepared and extremely flavorful. Our friend, who lives here, is happy to have a new place to go to.

I ordered a hamburger, which came with a small salad and fries. The burger was good and I enjoyed it. I also enjoyed their selection of beers which was above average. The only thing I didn't like about it was that it seemed a little expensive; I don't feel I got particularly good value for my money. With that said, the food is good, and I would eat here again.

We were lucky that they had Hapuka (New Zealand Sea bass) on the menu and it was so light and flaky! The rest of the dishes were also tasty and enjoyable. The only downside is we had two servers: one who had great energy and described the dishes in a way that you just were ready to enjoy an amazing feast; the other simply dropped off each plate with a quick blurb. Huge contrast and unfortunate.

When we called at 5PM Wednesday (when they opened) we asked if there was a soup she could have (or a single course along those lines). Instead, they recreated and reformed the whole tasting menu for her to a more delicate and easier to bite into dishes. My wife was nervous about going out to a nice restaurant with bruising and stitches and Arbour and it's staff made her night. The food was amazing, and the service even more so. I can't thank them enough for turning what could've been a sad night into something we will never ever forget.
