I thought it was Ok and not as bad as some of the other reviews, however, not great.

We were seated very quickly as there happened to be a free table out front. The initial waitress was friendly enough but the waiter that came after was very curt. They were super busy and the phone did not stop ringing for takeaway orders the entire time we were there. Slow to take our order but the meals came quickly after that.

It cost us $40 for rice, a green curry and a chicken salad. They tasted quite good, however, the portions were small and light on ingredients. The salad had chicken, lemon grass and a little lettuce. Could have been better. I wouldn't say not to going back for a quick meal however.

Pumpkin salad was great. I'm also told the club sandwiches were excellent. Really good coffee. Service was Ok. On a noisy corner but.....

Great setting and view. Nice decor also (once you get past the front of the building and the foyer). Good but casual service. The Oskar prawns are nice. Snappper was excellent. Decent wine list. About $110 per head. We shared a few desserts between us also.

Salads! The lima bean salad is the bomb. Just love it. Always friendly. The burgers are great also. Easy to understand why this place is constantly packed.

Very friendly service. Pleasant and fast. We had a great breakfast. Probably one the best I have had for some time I think. It was a special "Haloumi Surprise". Wow. Loved it. Reasonably priced also.

Really overpriced. The steaks were fine. The individual servings of curly fries and pasta were small for the price. Generally the food was fine. Service was generally Ok with the exception of a particularly rude waitress whose response to one of our party when asking what vegetarian options there were responded with a curt, "anything with a V".

She really made sure she didn't go out of her way. When asked the size of the pasta, responded with "it comes in a bowl" right. Just plain rude. This is just a couple of examples of some of the pearlers from here mouth. Do yourselves a favour and get rid of her.

Slow service but the food was good enough. Not great but good and they were accommodating for our group with vegetarian requirements. Slow to replenish water or take our orders. OK.

A weekday morning late brunch. Service was pleasant. We sat outside because it it was hot. Not the best area but pleasant enough. I think inside would be great when it's cold. Breakfast was great. We loved to corn fritters. A little too much corn for me that made them fall apart but overall it was great.

This place is buzzing. Nice staff. In fact very friendly and no attitude, which is a nice change. (It must be more enjoyable to work somewhere sans attitude also). The coffee is great. We had a Reuben sandwich. Expensive at $15 for a quite small sandwich, however, the flavour was brilliant. Nice space (very big and empty so could be a little bare). Good music.
