If I could give them a 0 star I would be happy to. Went here for my best friends bday party and this was the first time she’s ever hosted something and was very excited. The harbour bridge was closed due to horrible weather and we’re stuck on the motorway for an hr and was running late for our booking. We called and let them know about this and they said it was fine however while the other people arrived the staff had told everyone that there was a $500 drinks tab when there wasn’t. When we arrived at the venue our friends were asking about the tab and had to awkwardly explain that there was no tab on anything. First red flag. When we were ready to order the lady was full of attitude and was defensive when we said the bar tab wasn’t under our name and she argued that it was… at the end she said she’ll talk o her manager and get back and awkwardly in front of everyone told us that there wasn’t a bar tab. Super unprofessional in my opinion as a 20 year old who has a lot of respect for workers. She then said there was a minimum spend of $500 for this venue and I was hoping she would just stop talking. So embarrassing when she reminded everyone they have to pay when they already were going to pay. Next I tried ordering a drink on the qr code kept on the table and noticed it hadn’t come after 30 mins. When we let them know she asked to see the order and I realised I hadn’t signed in to complete the order. I felt bad and apologised and then made a face that made me look stupid and said that we can’t order through the QR code cuz we are under a tab. But why was the QR code in the private venue then?. She took the food away with attitude again and made a face with her other worker. They also placed 3/4 plates of fried chicken on our table that wasn’t ours and gaslit us saying we did order it with attitude again. One of my friends went to find another waitress and said these weren’t our and they double checked the order to see that it wasn’t ours. They then had the audacity to say that we can keep it but it’ll be charged for under our tab???? Absolutely ridiculous behaviour and couldn’t believe the staff. Either they were upset that we were late when that had nothing to do with them because they had no other bookings or they were overworked or payed below minimum but please don’t work if you can’t have good attitude towards anything because it puts other people down and ruined our night. I hope this finds management because their attitude was unacceptable and very disrespectful

Great environment, fantastic friendly staff, good choice of drinks, food was pretty nice but hugely expensive. ($170.00 for seafood platter) Had really yummy bucket of mussels in creamy chowder but the chef did not allow us to order a side of bread to soak it up. Only option was extra $18 for dukkah, dips, and 4 small slices of foccacia.

Great food and a lovely cosy atmosphere. Met up with a friend and we shared a few plates : Cauliflower, Buttermilk Chicken, and wild caught Fish. Everything was cooked to perfection and so tasty & tender. The Cauliflower was hands down the hero dish of the night. I will have to come back.
