Highly recommend the squid entree and the pumpkin gnocchi. Cannelloni really impressed the meat eater and sous vide chicken was delicious.

Supreme menu, wonderful service, value for money. I had the Bush Chook. Absolutely wonderful and I think it was over half a chicken. My wife had the smoked cheese seafood toast which was spectacular. Highly recommended you try it. We went for lunch as we know it's super busy at night

We had a delightful lunch on a very mild Tasmanian day, with the stunning backdrop of blue skies and the vineyard. We started with the home made foccacia with dukkah and olive oil and the very fresh burrata to share. Serving sizes were generous and tasty. Our second courses were the mushroom risotto and calamari in a light tempura batter with asian flavours. Once again they were generous servings, especially the calamari which was listed as a small plate. Our waitress was very friendly and efficient and gave us the impression she really enjoyed her job. This was our second visit here, the last being 3-4 years ago and it didn't disappoint.

A really great little bistro restaurant with a smart modern vibe… would stand up well against some of Melbournes best bistros . food was excellent and well presented … great service from a friendly welcoming staff. It is a shared menu concept… so best for at least two ! Amazing T-bone /wagu steak and whole fish but served whole,so a bit much for a single dinner! Oh , and as others have mentioned YOU HAVE TO HAVE THE BREAD.. it’s a must

The service was really good. The food was good too but we did think the menu for main meals was very limited. It would be nice to have a few alternatives apart from food that pubs offer. The only ‘different’ alternatives were a risotto and a beef dish? Otherwise very ordinary menu and quite expensive.
