Made the online reservation as not knowing
whether it would be full for lunch, turned out, it was not a full house; yet
numbers of patrons occupied half part of the restaurant.
Décor is simple in neutral tone; the
natural light coming through the magnificent ceiling though not right under it,
still gives that airy feel to the whole area.
Service was quite alright, attentive in asking
our drink and order, very accommodating when asked for a change of table. There
were one or two times when we couldn’t get their attention as they were
standing at far end but it was still acceptable.
Food selection was quite good, not very
elaborate and not too concise too, just good for this scale of restaurant. Food
served quite promptly and it was fresh and decent.Due to temptation of ground floor café, we had indulged its carrot cake and tea before lunch, resulting in just main courses to order at the restaurant.
Beside the open concept cafés available on
the ground floor, I would highly suggest to try Great Court restaurant in you
plan on having lunch during your museum visit.
