    A cute place in North Melbourne that serves South-East Asian food with a twist, with bookcases sitting in corners. We ordered the Potato Fritters ($9 ea), 5-star Chooken ($25), Steak ($42), and a half-dozen Oysters ($33), all with a 2023 Orbis Fiano Bottle ($80) that came highly recommended by the staff. We had to wait a bit to get the mains (steak and chicken), but it was well worth it, as the chicken with honey was the star of the night. I hope they manage to space out the serving so you don't wait long for the next dish. A great place for food and wine. They have live jazz on Thursdays, not too loud tho, allowing you to enjoy your evening.

The place was buzzing and with nice weather a great place to go to if your our and about in the city

    We had the special valentines set menu which came to $120 for 2 (plus 10% weekend surcharge), plus we opted to upgrade for an extra $6pp for an alcoholic beverage. The curry was absolutely delicious and the service was 10/10.
