I've heard many good reports about this restaurant, but unfortunately I can't agree.
I attended a wedding there, which would be a beautiful venue if you have less than 30 guests. The rotunda outside barely seats anyone so the majority of guests had to stand. I couldn't see any of the ceremony at all. I personally wouldn't have a ceremony there unless it's very very small and intimate.

As for the food, well if you enjoy seafood this is probably a great restaurant. I'm a non-seafood eating vegetarian and the vegetarian choices were bland an inedible.
The main meal for vegetarians was essentially spaghetti with butter and cheese sauce (stomach churning), combined with olives and mushrooms. Personally I don't think olives go with a buttery cheese sauce.
Everyone who tried the dish turned up their noses.

Another main was steak, which was a minuscule proportion. Some people said it was perfectly cooked while others weren't impressed.

The dining area itself is nice and offers a nice view. As the complex is directly underneath the flight path of taking off/landing planes it can be a bit noisy, but it wasn't as bad as I thought it would be noise wise.
