We had an incredible dinner for the Tuesday Feed Me night, it was $45 per person which is great value. The perfect amount of food, really really tasty and full of flavour and the wine was excellent. Will definitely be heading back here soon!

We tried the Feed me option for$75 each. We were fortunate to be moved from high table dining to the patio dining area just before we arrived for our booking which we really appreciated. Excellent and prompt service by the 2 waitresses, they gave good informative detail on the dishes, were attentive and serviced the table well with drinks and clean up. The entrees were 10/10, simple but well presented and flavourful, portions are smaller but the meal overall was filling. The vege sides for the main were 10/10 also, the basin protein of chicken was good 1/4 chicken each, not dry, but maybe a little underwhelming compared to the other dishes, the bowl of fries was probably unnecessary or didn't match with the meal. Dessert was 7.5/10, a light mousse and a coconut berry panna cotta, mousse was the better of the 2. The cocktails were nicely made and presented also.

Sounds like you felt well looked after with information communicated well , attentive service and well-presented cocktails. Thanks for passing on your feedback re the chicken dish and the panna cotta . We appreciate you visiting us . All the best from the WAYGOOD team .

This is such a cute little place. Its got a lovely feel with lamps on the tables, a central round bar and beautiful atmosphere. Its casual yet special. The staff were lovely, attentive and helpful. The menu is small but delicious.

We booked in for an early table before our Kylie concert Saturday night. The hosts were super attentive as it was a hot night and we needed the refreshments. Food was lovely just interesting enough for us out of towners. The hosts accommodated all our food quirks as well. Thank you, you helped make our preciously rare night out that much better.
WAYGOODResponded on March 11, 2025
I imagine the concert went well, really appreciate you visiting us beforehand. Hope to see you again soon :)
