Despite its ambitions, this restaurant falls short on nearly every front. The atmosphere feels more like a local pub than an upscale establishment, and the quality of the food reflects that. The dishes are poorly executed and lack the finesse you’d expect at these price points. The service is subpar, with staff that seem more disengaged than attentive. Overall, the experience doesn’t justify the prices. There are far better options if you’re after a truly refined dining experience, if you venture towards Elsternwick or South Yarra.

Hi Gary, this is so disappointing to read that we did not tick all the dining boxes on your recent visit. We would love to get some more info from you if you wouldnt mind sharing to our email via the contact us page on our website, in particular what day/time you visited, this would be really helpful so that we can follow up with our team. Thank you kindly. Team RFW

A great dinning experience as the food and service was to perfection. Celebration of my birthday with a lovely surprise on the tableware covered with stars and little birthday greetings was a gorgeous touch to the nite.
