Adored this place! Found it by accident with my partner one evening, and we were both extremely impressed. Service was wonderful, and the staff were more than happy and willing to alter one of my dishes in order to accommodate a food allergy I have. The meals were all delicious, although the Escargot seemed to have a little too much garlic for my liking.

Regardless though, it was still pleasant and one of the best French dining experiences I've had in a long time. Will definitely be returning on my next trip to Melbourne.

Was extremely unimpressed with this place. Upon arrival we were greeted by quite a rude waitress, who immediately barked at us to hurry up and order and pay before we had even sat down (which, for their sake they are lucky... would have refused to pay for this garbage had we been given the option to pay after!). We bought 2 main meals between us, in addition to 2 salad bar meals. I ordered a mini seafood platter, and my partner a rump steak.

As a person who Hates buffets, I didn't have particularly high expectations for the salad bar, but alas I gave it a go anyway. I opted for some coleslaw and a chicken, mango and almond salad. Both barely felt refrigerated and tasted like they had been left out overnight, disgusting, had 2 mouthfuls and then put my plate to the side and silently hoped our mains would be better.

Our mains finally arrived after waiting for close to half an hour, my partner's steak was ridiculously overcooked, and my so called 'mini seafood platter' was just a pile of deep fried muck that had clearly been sitting in the freezer for the last few weeks. Again, we had a couple bites off our plates and then pushed it to the side, promptly left and picked up some fast food on the way home instead.

All in all, this place was just a horrible all round experience and stupidly overpriced for the quality of food you receive. Will not be returning. Ever.
