    What an experience!! From the moment we arrived the place looked stunning. We were seated quickly and advised the name of our waiter. Shortly after Daniel arrived and provided table water while we checked over menus. Polite - courteous - promptly advised us of minor changes to the menu options and left us to make our decisions. Ordering was a breeze, Daniel repeated the order back to us confirming minor alterations and shortly after our entrees arrived. The food was perfectly presented and cooked just right. Staff checked in to clear away empty dishes we had moved to the side and made the night just stunning. noise level was low (we dined mid week) and we were able to hold conversation without straining to hear. The lane way was a nice delight after our meal, beautifully lit and a nice light stroll after a meal was pleasant. Cocktails were also exceptional All in all one of the better dining experiences we have had in Sydney.
