Excellent choice of food and drink at reasonable prices. Whole experience spoiled by staff who seemed incompetent, slow, non-welcoming and disinterested.

We had a lovely meal but the service was average to poor mainly because I think it was a public holiday so they scrimped on staff wages - it was a big restaurant for 4 servers - the maître de could have assisted with the service.

At $22 per average cocktail, they are more expensive than anywhere else in the area. Hurlstone Park Hotel (for example has comparable cocktails for $18), so they should’ve been great. They were not at all. The pizza ordered failed to rise properly, so it was hard and stodgy, not fluffy or light at all. This was bought to staff’s attention as we have had pizza from there before. They were told it wasn’t up to scratch, yet still charged us. A waiter claimed their “puffy bread” is different and that is the lighter bread. I am aware of that;- I’ve had both the bread and pizza there. My point was this pizza dough was hard and not risen at all. I even tapped the crust so he could hear the sound the hard dough made. Bone marrow was served still bleeding, not acceptable. They took it back to cook further. It was an entree and arrived back at table with ALL of the mains. This included the diner that ordered the bone marrow receiving both that and her main pasta couses AT THE SAME TIME. If you’re trying to be a “higher end” restaurant this should NEVER occur. Souvlaki chicken dry and “meh”.. according to that diner. My béarnaise sauce on my schnitzel was a few random artful drizzles;- not a sauce as advertised. Have been here a few times but this was godawful. Plenty of other places in the area to try that would have to really do badly to be worse than this experience. Style over pretty poor substance.
