The service was good and the staff were very friendly. The pork ribs were decent, but overall the food lacked flavor and was a bit disappointing. It wasn’t a bad experience, but I expected more from the food.

We had a delicious dinner here last night. We booked through first table, got a seat at 530, nice and early before the dinner crouds came in. We got the wrapped pork belly and lamb shank. Both meals were generous helpings with good amount of meat vs vege ratio.
Only comment is that the potatoes on the pork meal were undercooked so that aspect wasnt so enjoyable. But all in all, good experience.

We celebrated my dad’s 80th birthday at The Curve restaurant a couple of weeks ago. We were not guests of the hotel but they welcomed us ever so warmly for this birthday lunch event. Communication via email (we live in Aus) when organising the event was seamless from both Nirjal and Katie. We were so impressed by the professionalism they showed but also their down to earth natures. I never doubted their integrity or reliability. We had around 22 ppl in total and we were very fortunate to have the whole restaurant to ourselves as a private function. The food came out in good time and was delicious. Whilst the food was great I am just amazed by the staff and how warmly they treated us. Thank you to all the staff! Ps Nirjal was professional but also great fun!

Several dishes we ordered were unavailable so I ended up ordering Seafood Chowder which turned out to be a curry vegetable soup with a few tiny pieces of fish. No shrimps, mussels, decent pieces of fish. Easter weekend and by Friday night at 6.30pm there was at least 4 dishes of our choice were unavailable

The restaurant area was overcrowded by a large, noisy gaggle of guests for breakfast when a bus group were preparing to leave - check their timing beforehand to avoid such an experience. Avoid the restaurant completely if the ceiling fans are causing a flickering effect on the lighting - and those sitting nearby. If so it may trigger a seizure for anyone pre-disposed to epileptic symptoms - even if they do not know of the risk. Outdoors is a clumsy but more passive option, bleak and uninviting though on a cool morning.
