★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Food was amazing and portions were just right! Although we only ordered the Margherita pizza and buttermilk fried chicken, we just managed to finish it. Cocktails were yummy too.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Was good getting back to bit bit of Normality again, but safely. May was the highlight of my first time back visit, with so much energy and customer service was the best I had ever seen. She was all over at any given time. Wow. Keep up the good work May. The food was good. Had fish and chips. I think there should be reviewed by others, think the dish lacked a bit of improvement, 4 star the salad on the dish was the winner. But that’s my opinion. The salt and pepper Squid 5 starl May 6 star.?

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Our dining experience was enhanced tonight thanks to our amazing waitress "Emma" . She was attentive, smiling and obviously takes her job seriously, her smile was lovely and she seemed a very happy soul. Thank you Emma. We'll be asking for Emma when we go back.
The food tonight was fabulous, a plentiful bowl of caesar salad with lots of chicken and a medium sirloin which was fantastic and such a nice change to have potatoes instead of chips. Thanks everyone :-)

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Food was absolutely fantastic, steak cooked perfectly, perhaps a little too much garlic butter but better more than less.
The chicken burger was sizable, and interesting style of fried but tasty none the less.
With the dessert option chosen a brownie, with chocolate mousse and chocolate ice cream... the perfect level of chocolate overload.
The only thing holding them back from five stars was the service was a bit haphazard.
The extremely helpful bar manager had to take our order, our server never appeared and the food was quite slow... But if it takes that time to make it taste as good as it did I am glad we waited patiently.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ My friend and I decided to get the platter to share so we could try a bit of everything (I'm also on a low carb/keto diet so it was a good meaty option with some vege where my friend could eat the breads etc.) It looked super vibrant and exciting when it was served. The chicken was nice and crispy. Ribs were a bit tougher than I would've expected, wasnt tender/soft so it took a bit to eat it all off the bone. Loved everything else on there. Wish there was a bit more of the brocolini though. Personally I think it was a bit steep in price (over $50), But we split the cost so it was ok . We also had a long island iced tea (made with coke zero) each which was delish

All our guests could not stop complementing the food that was served ! Not only was the presentation of it excellent but it tasted good too. thank you chef. Big thank you to our two bartenders May & Fred. & lastly Thank you Lisa ! For making sure we were well looked after. Like they say if the management is good the team is good ! Thank you to the team that served us on this evening.
Rooftop bar: Honestly this room saves you from decorating the place is already well set up.
