"Excellent dinner ,we were upgraded to a better table from staff that went above and beyond cant remember his name (part russian) great knowledge of the menu and wine also pointed us in right direction to buy more wine post dinner .husband had the best lamb he's had in years !"
"Food was on average pretty poor. Gnocchi was gluggy, chicken roulade was under seasoned and bland and the deserts were terrible. The panna cotta was so dense it was like a hockey puck served with hard rice crackle better reserved for a children’s birthday party. A mille-feuille is not a scoop of ice cream and a couple of small disks of flavourless pastry. Table water was charged at $12 a bottle. No tap water option was offered. Service was lacklustre. Don’t waste your money."
"Quiet with a delightful old world charm. Food was well prepared and presented. The staff were very attentive. The complimentary bread was appreciated."
"Great Ambiance. The food was good but not great. The Raviolo was bit thick. Cocktails were not strong enough, seems to be diluted and felt like a mocktail. Service was poor, had to call multiple times and asked for a suggestion nobody attended for nearly 15 mins. Only 2 tables were there but not sure why that happend. Also the cocktails were supposed to be concocted live at the table but it was already mixed and served. Bit of disappointment with the service."
"The food here is okay, went for the high tea and was a little disappointed in the flavours. There was a sandwich with way too much cream cheese. It was so filling I could barely eat anything after. I'm a big fan of cream cheese and this was over the top even for me. I regret eating as much of it as I did. The tea itself was fine, I enjoyed the crumbed lamb ball and the macaron. Unfortunately when we went (1pm) it was rather empty and there were several flies and mozzies gunning for our food. It was off-putting as we were non-stop trying to swat them away but they would still land on our food/cups. The server was understanding and offered to replace my dessert where a stubborn mozzie was stuck. Overall I felt it was a bit overpriced and doubt I'll come back here."
