    Third time here, always good. Great to have a nice restaurant in Marrickville as there are only a couple of restaurants to choose from if you don’t want to eat in cheap eateries. If you want to be in a proper restaurant atmosphere and service then it’s the place , Was surprised some of the more interesting dishes are low longer on the menu which I think is a shame because there are plenty of Vietnamese eateries in Marrickville.

    There was a great live band on the night we went for dinner, however, due to the size of the restaurant, the music was too loud. The food was ample, however expensive, for what you get. The taste was not very authentic, due to their overcomplicated modifications. What was seen on Instagram compared to what was presented was not the same. Would not go there again. It is more for those that aren't as familiar with the cuisine and want a more vibe-y atmosphere.

    Great Thai inspired fusion dishes served in a warm, romantic, new York jazz bar inspired atmosphere. Live jazz band playing throughout which was amazing. Servers are attentive, helpful and friendly. The owner/manager Flora took the time to speak to us and ensure the experience was perfect. A++ venue. Highly recommended for special occasions!

    Great combination of Asian fusion food, cocktails and vibes. Felt like I was taking a step back in time to the 50s with the jazz tunes in the background and the beautiful decor - cherry blossoms hanging from the ceiling with a busy and meticulously organised open kitchen. Many gluten free options so I felt like I never missed out. Best surprise was the prawn stuffed chicken and the sake mint style cocktail.

    Very impressive! The food was perfectly seasoned, well portioned, was not delayed, and left us wanting more and more. I would happily return to have more of the wagyu noodle and tootfish. The service left me stunned in the best way possible! Very attentive staff without feeling like they were hovering over us or too eager to impress...they made us feel like we were the only ones in the restaurant. The ambience was warm, comforting, and felt like being in a jazz bar. I look forward to the next time I get to visit this place, and will be recommending this restaurant to everyone! Thank you team for having us!
