    We have dined many times at Glass, but note to self to avoid marquee days & set menu's. It was a production line from the minute we sat down. No time to enjoy a champagne as food just started rolling out before the champagne was even poured. From there staff would hover to remove plates to get the next course in. We deliberately sat with half empty plates to slow them down. Maitre D was very good as was our young waitress but service overall due to the pace was not what we were looking for on a Mother's day celebration. I need to ask..there is no way it was busier than a al la carte Saturday evening so why the set menu?

    Great vibe, great food, great drinks, but most of all amazing staff. In fact, one of the best staff experiences I’ve had. They took genuine pride in their service, and ensured us the best experience. From fast-tracking our meals as we were pre-theatre, to helping decide our courses, and then pairing each of us with the perfect wine but in such a caring passionate way so rare to receive 100% recommend

    A beautiful setting is marred by nonexistent service, almost inedible food and an automatic 5% credit card surcharge added to your already astronomical bill.

    We probably had the best table overlooking George St & the QVB., wonderful vista from where we sat. Our Thai waiter was wonderful & couldn’t do enough for us.. he lowered the blinds when the sun was blazing down on us. My Negroni arrived & when I tasted it, the flavour was not that of a classic Negroni. Our waiter changed it quickly for a classic which was great. The food was great & the mahi mahi cooked to perfection with the grape, almond, witlof & olive combo was delicious. We will be back & thank you for a lovely experience 🤩

    Amazing afternoon tea collab with Koko Black. The crème brûlée scone was delicious and all the Koko Black treats were amazing. It was my husband’s birthday and they gave us more dessert, on the house, to celebrate. Couldn’t fault anything. Highly recommend!

    Very disappointing. Steak cooked poorly, not rested enough with juices pooling all over plate. Peppercorn sauce, the consistency of water. Service very slow. Predinner drinks did not come until entree and second drinks came after the main meal was served.
