La Traviata is opulent and ornate, a place where guests can lavishly celebrate the grandest of occasions. The restaurant’s décor pays homage to the style of the nineteenth-century opera house, with crystal chandeliers, sweeping silk drapes, high ceilings, and ornate inlaid wood. The opera theme continues to the entertainment, with live piano nightly, and piano-accompanied vocalists on Fridays and Saturdays. But where homage to the past permeates the ambiance, the menu is refreshingly modern, an inspired blend of unique, novel creations such as Kumquat Coco Prawns and house-made smoked Duck Ravioli, peppered with fresh takes on Italian classics such as Porcini Risotto and Veal Scaloppini. Whether you come for the setting or the food, a visit to La Traviata promises to be as striking and memorable as a beautiful aria.

Review Title: great place nice view good food, very happy
Make sure you have enough time to be there when the sun is out and then stay there until the sun goes down to see a spectacular romantic view of the city. Bring your girl and I guarantee you will get some. If you have time check out the gardens. I was very pleased.
