Went in after an evening shopping and was pleasantly surprised by the informal atmosphere. The choice of entrees was very good and the garlic prawns were a treat. A small salad bar was available and had some nice options available. The steaks were very good and done as I asked. So overall good food and friendly service.

Approximate cost: $42

Arrived on a Tuesday night and the restaurant is very busy. Satay chicken was Ok but nothing special but he sweet and sour fish was great along with the beef and black bean . Staff were attentive but maybe not enough were on at such a busy time.

Still a great family night out.

Went in on a busy Sunday night and received a friendly welcome. Sat down and got a nice bottle of wine and enjoyed the calamari which was fresh for entree and the fish which was also very fresh.

Followed up with the Tiramisu which was the best I have ever had. So overall a great evening.

Went there for a quick meal before a special night out and whilst OK I found the food rather unspectacular with the meat quality a bit below expectation.

Price for the food was a bit high for the quality of food provided.

Great food with nice and tender calamari for entree ad a juicy and tender rump steak for main course. the rosti, onions, mushrooms and tomato were great accompaniements.

Good wine list and it was wonderful to sit on the balcony and watch teh sun go down.

Different place to go for a night out with table cooking on a hot rock. Whilst the meal was enjoyable, the cost was a bit high. The service was good but unremarkable.

For an entertaining night out with friends this could be a good option.

Due to a good Womow review, I went here with my wife. We sat at the window and could watch the people coming and going. The service was top notch, and the menu had a good choice to suit all. My wife and I had a steak, and both were cooked well. We had a glass of wine which made it lovely. We are going to come back soon with the rest of the family. Thanks To WOMOW I found a lovely restaurant that I want to go back to.

Food was nice but definitely not worth the money they charge. Staff seem a little pretentious making it a little uncomfortable to dine there. Specials are sometimes the bargains of the night.
