Very cool looking venue with mural, foliage and illuminated sign. Friendly service. $14 workers lunch which is good value. We shared the snitzel wrap and chips but the wrap needed more sauce/flavour, and the chips were not salted enough. Nice and spacious rooftop with an undercover area. We went on a really hot day and although there were fans and coverings it was extremely warm and uncomfortable though lovely and cool downstairs in the restaurant section.
