We went as a group of four to celebrate Christmas. Was really looking forward to it as I've never tried Cova's restaurant before, only their cakes. Given it is $488+10% per person for a semi-buffet lunch, there are many more choices out there to justify the price and experience that we had. I would probably never come back to this branch again.The antipasti buffet was good and fresh with a great variety of salads, seafood, ham, cheese and salami.

The antipasti buffet was good and fresh with a great variety of salads, seafood, ham, cheese and salami. Was a good start of the meal.
The spaghetti and crab meat were fresh but slightly tasteless (please add salt to your dish...). The truffle tortellini was much better overall and hit the spot.
I regretted so much not stuffing myself with the antipasti... The main courses didn't arrive until an hour later!! The service was incredibly disappointing, we had to ask for water refill three times until it finally came... If we have to wait for an hour for the mains to arrive, it means the servers do not have much to do in between other than checking on the guests.
Finally the main course arrived, we only tried the seabass and beef tenderloin. Surprisingly the seabass came with a shrimp that wasn't stated on the menu. Luckily she wasn't allergic or anything. My friend commented it wasn't the fish wasn't marinated and the sauce didn't quite bring out the flavour of the fish.
My beef tenderloin on the other hand was better and I devoured it in no time after the long wait.
We really looked forward to the dessert as this is what Cova has been famous for. As chocolate lovers, we really appreciated the intense dark chocolate flavour, but the cake was not sweet at all even after adding the icing sugar... It was such a strange experience that the berries on the side were way sweeter than the cake.
