The staff were amazing. Really nice to talk to. Toby and a young girl ( cannot remember here name) who showed they really cared about people. Food was great. Ricotta dumplings , fish of the day, grilled friutsalad, duck l'orange. Just delicious. Ambience really nice. Thankyou

A beautiful quaint historic hotel, serving fine food in a romantic setting. The food was exceptional and served quickly. Not to mention the staff who were exceptional and friendly. Our order consisted of the Salmon entree, Confit Duck, Prawn Linguine, Raspberry Tart, and affogato.

We were staying at the Berida for a couple of days, on a very relaxing (and well deserved) break from the city. Bistro Sociale was recommended by friends, so it seemed fitting we try it as we were staying at the same space. Food and service were both excellent. As a couple dining amongst large crowds/tables of guests we weren't forgotten about through the busy period, which is always a risk sometimes. We started with martinis (v good) and entrees - trout, scallops. Mains were lamb and duck, with sides of asparagus and pumpkin. Both meats were cooked to perfection, with elements of pink coming through on both. Dessert wasn't needed, but had anyway. You do what you gotta do. If you're in the area would recommend - definitely worth the visit.
