The staff are unfriendly and inattentive. My partner and I sat down and were pressured to place a drink order before either of us had barely sat down. We had to hustle to get a waiter's attention every time. The food was OK but overpriced. This place wouldn't get away with it in Sydney where there is competition. The only thing keeping it afloat is the fact there aren't many places to go in Wollongong. Very disappointing.
