Very disappointed from start to finish. Nothing was of an acceptable standard for Melbourne dining. Menu very limited Quality of food is average Expensive for what was received Service was exceptionally poor Seated outside and then forgotten about completely Wine was served in ice buckets without enough ice or water to keep cold Complete lack of awareness about needs of customers on a scorching hot day. There was one kindness expressed at the end of our meal & that was when we were offered & inside table for our dessert. Struggling to say anything positive

The young waitress was very nice. In shock to see that this restaurant was packed and the review was high. I do not think the chefs are trained. The day’s special was flounder which was butchered(or they got the damaged fish) and fishy, cuttlefish bolognese sounded interesting but just bad -the thick pasta was stuck together (not stirred during boiling!?) and boiled without salt, the sauce was terrible….The only decent food was the carpaccio of kingfish. I was just letting it go as bad experience and then saw the bill for the water. We had 2 glasses each of sparkling water not even bottles next to us and got charged 20 aud. Now it’s a bit personal. I mean, we went for the view so we didn’t have high hopes but at the cost of over 100 aud p/p you would expect an acceptable meal.

Maybe they were having a bad night, but we couldn’t get service and the wait staff continued to look past us and walk past us. The food is beautiful! And we will go back again to try a second time - hopefully it’s the real deal.

If you are a European it is disappointing that bread is not served in Australia. Focaccia seems a new technique to make money. It was good though. The kingfish carpaccio was ok but felt sauce was a bit too much. The flayed rock flathead was exceptional !!! The steak was expensive, a bit small for the price , well cooked but smothered in sauce . The white chocolate cucumber dessert was fun. Overall I felt the food was good but there was too much dressing , over complicated. Would go back especially for the large rock flathead.

Beautiful space and spot. The food options were delicious, those croquettes are a must order while the fish they serve is fresh and cooked perfectly. I really enjoyed finishing off the meal with the coconut flan. Such a beautiful menu and great beverage options. Service was fantastic, staff so friendly and the background music today was on point; good grooves and vibes 😍 paired with the spring weather.
