Salad bar is fresh and provides a nice variety of items, however the plates used for the salad bar are diminutive and don't have the space to mix salad. One couple ordered steaks and were very pleased with the quality and requested level of grilling. I had the duck breast which was OK, but pre-sliced a little thick in the kitchen. Wifey had the Lasagna not made in the classic style and was satisfied. I have returned for lunch the next day and had the seafood omelet which I enjoyed. Will return as I travel back to Kaitaia. Oh, yes service friendly and the icing on the cake.
