    Actions speak louder than words. We went there for dinner last night and returned for a late lunch today without a booking. We were treated like long list friends and everything was impeccable. Everything.

    Great new restaurant to the Gold Coast - I feel like this has been missing for some time. Unique with reasonable prices; food was amazing and service was perfect. Relaxed formal dining. For someone who has gone to SK since the beginning, it is great to see Lars in his own kitchen!

    Food and cocky were perfection as always. Service was found a little lacking, however the maître de went above and beyond to accommodate us, & in our party. A must dine destination on the Gold Coast!

    The eye fillet and crab biscuits were to die for. These dishes rival any other steakhouse with ease and then some.
