Last minute decision to go was a good one. Nice service, yummy varied food ( agree some serves are on the small side for the price). Good ambience, most vinyl choices were great,

We chose the 'feed me' menu, and while the food was decent, it left us feeling underwhelmed, particularly given the price. The dinner included a few single-bite dishes to share, two pasta dishes (one of which was just two pieces of ravioli), and one single serving size fish dish intended for sharing. In total, there were five single servings to split between two people, with no dessert included. For nearly $200 dinner, we expected a more substantial experience.

Loved every dish; all were prepared with care and the balance of flavours was spot on. Service was excellent, staff were knowledgeable and were always nearby without fussing. Also loved the ambience, with subdued decor and great tunes. This was my second visit and I'll definitely be back

Fantastic spot to dine if you love a personalised experience with a hint of moody dim lighting. Creative menu with a bespoke drink’s selection to accompany any dish you try. Would highly recommend for a business event, girls night out or date night.

Learnt during our meal that the venue had only been open for 7 months, the team carried themselves well for this early timeframe. The concept and room was really nice, loved the records and choice of music playing. The food was good, our highlights were the quail, lamb hearts and snapper. We had a few pointers that our server graciously accepted at the end of the meal upon asking us for feedback. I do agree with some previous reviews about value for money but I feel that is going to the standard across the board for all hospitality venues. Would classify this venue as a special occasion restaurant versus a mid week quick bite spot but that's just a personal opinion. Would recommend!
