We were greeted by our friendly and professional host who showed us to our table. Starched white table clothes greeted us, as well as a well presented table setting. Our waitress was soon at the table taking our drinks order, she also saw how hot and bothered we were and suggested some iced water whilst we waited for the drinks (very appreciated)
The atmosphere is far more laid back and sophisticated then the bustling, vibrant Tavern just down the stairs. That is not the only difference. The menu is far more sophisticated then the Tavern and bonus, it also has Sushi.
Hubby opted for a grilled Kingklip, my son choose the smaller of the two seafood platters and I predictably had a Sushi Platter.
Our meals arrived in good time, all where beautifully presented and the portion size was good. (P.S the pricing is not hugely different from the Tavern downstairs) My Sushi was excellent, hubby was very impressed with his Kingklip and my son did very well with his not so small platter.
Another lovely touch was the glass of gorgeous champers we were brought by our smiling waitress, completely out of the blue. All in all I can say we thoroughly enjoyed our meals. After two years of going to the Tavern I cant believe we hadn't tried upstairs sooner. If it's a more sophisticated laid back venue your looking for then upstairs is the place to be. But lets not forget what put Quay 4 on the map in the first place, if your looking for a trendy, vibrant value for money place to eat, the Tavern is the place to be.
Not often you get such variety in one venue. We will be back that's for sure ...
