    We opted to share 4 different plates between 3 adult women. Had a lovely spring shoot salad, hand cut tagliatelle with a rich mushroom sauce to start, the main was pacific halibut and our unanimous favourite, the lobster risotto! They offered plain still or infused water which we opted for, alongside our refreshing non alcohol beverage ‘first bloom’. Bread was served on the side as well. It was my birthday celebration and was surprised with their offering of their roasted strawberry mousse dessert complete with a candle. We were attentively looked after the entire 3 hour span. Highly recommend and would love to try out their dinner offerings.

    We were celebrating our anniversary and they brought us complimentary prosecco. We got the Wagyu carpaccio and burrata cheese to start and they were exceptional. The carpaccio was full of textural contrasts and flavours that just worked, the burrata had a basil/pesto sauce that paired perfectly for our mains we had the duck and the striploin and they were both cooked perfectly paired with matching sauces that went perfectly with each dish. The server and vibe were excellent.

    Didn’t know they only do a brunch on weekend morning/afternoons. The food was mostly good but limited selection, hardly any vegetables, and set menu with limited drink choices. I didn’t like my main (lamb belly poutine). I don’t like brunch so didn’t enjoy the meal too much. Wish open table had this flagged, I would not have booked if I’d known they didn’t have the lunch menu. Service was good.

    The experience was outstanding from the minute we entered the venue. We had an innovative drink at the bar prior to being seated at our table. The food was delicious and the service was over the top!
