   Food is good but dishes can take a while to come out. We waited around half an hour between dishes without any updates from the staff. We had to ask a couple of times whether anymore dishes were coming out as we got the feed me menu and were waiting a long time.

   We ordered the feed me menu and added the oysters. The oysters were delicious and the venue is cute…but that’s about it. Found everything supremely saucy. The scallop in the sandwich was high quality, but would have been much better to just let the scallop shine instead of smothering it in what tastes like thousand island sauce. Was not a fan of the pigs ear schnitzel (but that could just be personal taste). Found the cucumbers extremely salty. Overall, wouldn’t got back again.

   This place was a surprise find for us.purpose was a pre show dinner. We went for the Feed Me option in the menu at $75 per head. The food was excellent, every dish a standout. Restaurant also has a limited but very interesting and value for money wine list. And the service from the 2 lovely waitresses was top notch Will definitely be going again Note book early as tables are limited

   We were incredibly impressed with the service and the food definitely matched. They exceeded our expectations and went above and beyond to assist with drink selections. This has got to be our favourite spot in Melbourne.

    The food was very nice. Wasn’t too impressed with the service. Very slow and we waited for the dessert with our dirty finished plates on our table for 25 minutes tried to get the attention of the waiter but was ignored by the guy making drinks. Then she dropped the dessert on our table. We were on a strict time schedule so it was quite disappointing. As I took my partner here for his birthday & I got recommended this place. Wouldn’t go there again to be honest.

    Loved most of the dishes, except for the herb crusted pork chop which was very disappointing. Lack any real flavour, didn’t seem to fit the menu and expensive for one chop. The restaurant is tiny and had a cool ambience, but no air conditioning and on the day we were there it was uncomfortably hot. Lovely service though.

    Love this place - delicious food and great service and the mini-tini is a winner. It was a warm night though and as there was no air conditioning so it was quite uncomfortable. Otherwise I would highly recommend a visit.

    The food was absolutely wonderful, the service was terrific, very professional and friendly, and I love the space, small, stylish and a very Tokyo feel. The only small things that could be improved is the food timing, there was no control over when it came out of the kitchen and there were some very long waits, but a very pleasant wait with a glass of wine or two! and there's not enough menu choice if you're a vegetarian - like my friend who I would love to bring here. Overall I love this place.

    I had to cancel the booking as my partner was unwell. I rang and left messages from 9 am on Saturday morning. there was no method to cancel the booking online. I was told by the huffy person at the end of the line that we would still be charged as we did not cancel within the time frame required. I was not offered an alternate night - just told that was policy and we would be charged.

    First of all, I called and texted the restaurant to change my booking time in two consecutive days but they never pick up the phone or respond to text. We had the feed me menu $70 per person. That comes with sichuan cucumber, raw tuna tartare, curried spammer crab, snake beans and an earl grey brûlée to share, and we each have a pork jowl skewer and a scallop sando . The cucumber, scallop sando and tuna tartare were delicious but the rest was average. The pork jowl has a strong porky smell and taste which I found unpleasant to eat. The amount of food served for feed me menu for 2 was less than $140, therefore the feed me menu was not quite value for money. Service was minimal. Two persons were in the kitchen prep for food and only one person taking order, serving, making drinks and washing dishes.

    Was so excited for this but quite disappointed as the sample menu showed lots of vegetarian options but we got there and there were only a few. My partners meal came out after I’d finished mine and his cauliflower was undercooked. It was also freezing. We ended up picking up takeout on the way home So much potential so it was a shame
