The Kitchen
Dining Is Just the Beginning
With panoramic sea views, cinematic sunsets, and a kitchen led by Jackson Berg, our restaurant offers the best of his talents for a full à la carte dining experience every Friday and Saturday night — dinner, drinks, and dancing included. The menu is built to suit your mood — from snacks and smaller plates to generous mains and shareable dishes that anchor the table. It's thoughtful, seasonal and produce-led food designed for all kinds of occasions.
The Bar
Creative & Considered
Our bar brings the same energy as our kitchen — creative, considered, and built for good times. Expect bespoke cocktails, reimagined classics, and a wine list that grows with us, focused on bottles we actually want to drink from independent growers. As the evening builds, so does the energy. Lights dip. Tables clear. And the room transforms — into a dancefloor. Walk-ins always welcome.
