Went there recently after reading good reviews and must say I was impressed. The crab and asparagus risotto was lovely, full of fresh crab meat and flavour. My partner enjoyed the steak, which was also a good serving size. Will definitely return.

Really really enjoyed this restaurant, great dining experience. Food is so flavoursome and the detail and presentation that goes into the food is excellent.

Love how the menu is ever changing. The only negative I could make is that the waitresses could be a little bit more outgoing with their customers. But food is hands down the best in Cronulla.

This was the best restaurant that I've been to in quite a while. The service was great and the food was fantastic. The chef changes the menu every six weeks so you can go back and experience the same great service and have a completely new dish! An absolutely stunning combination of flavours. Definitely one to recommend to friends and family!

Been here about 6 times now and enjoyed every moment. The space is a bit small but they don't jam you in either, the decor is fairly spartan but it's clean and clutter free. I love the open kitchen with Dean working hard over the stoves.

The food is superb. I always find something on the menu that pleases especially duck or prawn dishes. The cooking shows a depth of talent and presentation is excellent. The service is low key friendly (what they call professional in the city) but I'm happy to have staff that know what's happening and look after you in a subdued way. Look forward to coming here again.

We really enjoy the food here but find the waiting staff neither welcoming nor warm. They are efficient but that is all, there is no friendliness and they certainly make it obvious when it is time to leave. If it wasn't for this fact we would eat here every week.

Went there after reading the reviews. The menu looks impressive but the food is average and so is the service.

I went here on a recommendation. Each dish was not of large portion but was devine. The food was the best I have had in Cronulla. I would definitely go back here. Each dish has been carefully planned with all the flavours coming together well and really complimenting each other. I loved the food here.

This restaurant has it all. Great service matched with fabulous food for a very reasonable price. There is no comparison with other Cronulla restaurants who do the redundant, same-old-sickly-sweet-asian-confusion style cuisine. This place has heart and soul with owners who care about the guests and show off thier skills with pride. Portion sizes are perfect- I felt perfectly balanced after a 3 course meal, break and a bottle of wine. Not hungry- not full just right.

Food was great, service was excellent, but we couldn't stay for dessert as the old school chairs gave us back pain. I'd love to go back, but next time we'll sit outside.

Visited for small birthday party. Service was great, food excellent, casual setting. Nice outlook overlooking park. Would return for special occasion or when have mid-week specials that offered very good value. We ordered an arrangement of entrees and shared so we got a good taste of all the yummies on offer. Not one of us had complaints and meals a good size.
