   We’ve been twice now and haven’t been disappointed. The good is great and it’s not so busy during lunch só you can still chat. We’ll keep coming back!

   So far the best food we’ve had on the Coast since moving from Sydney (the allergy friendly meals tasted excellent which is often not the case. Most restaurants take all the flavour out). The vibe was great - inviting and modern. Sitting on the seats infrint of the bar to eat a meal was uncomfortable, but a unique experience. The rose behind us had proper dining tables and chairs. The service was excellent, very professional and friendly. They were on top of everything, and addressed aloud questions well. Overall, we would go back.

   Food is always very good. Service average, some pretty rude waitresses that more or less roll their eyes when you ask for something. As always drinks didn't arrive until halfway through the meal, even though we asked.

   Great place with excellent views. Great prompt welcome with drinks service timed lerfectky. Nice cocktail menu if a little pricey. Food is good, not great , Its best to share to try different dishes. Service could be faster, especially clearing dishes. Overall it was lovely.

   The decor and vibes of this place are really nice. I enjoyed the views and the overall atmosphere. Cocktails are fantastic. I ordered the signature espresso martini and it was very delicious. All the cocktails on the menu sounded amazing and I would come back again to try them all. The food was okay. I really enjoyed the pork soup dumplings and the prawn rice paper rolls. Very yummy. However, the duck spring rolls tasted very average, and unfortunately, the duck noodles were not to my liking. They smelt great but had a taste imbalance of sweet and salty. Service was quite good. We noticed that our small plates didn’t come out altogether, but wasn’t too much of an issue. I will definitely come back again for the drinks and a small plate or two, but not for a full dining experience.

   The GF dumplings and GF Pad See Ew were delicious and the staff were super lovely, however, we ordered the Chicken Larb and when it came out we both noticed an extremely unpleasant smell that turned us off our other food. We gave the chicken a try anyways and unfortunately had to spit it out as it was so foul tasting and smelling, even the people sat next to us commented on the smell when they overheard us. We weren’t able to finish our other dishes and then couldn’t even touch the chicken and left the restaurant almost immediately as we couldn’t stand the smell and it had made us completely lose our appetites. We are both not people to complain, and we weren’t going to say anything but I couldn’t happily pay for something that we didn’t eat and made us not want to finish our other food. However, the staff were very kind and didn’t charge us for the Chicken as we weren’t able to eat any of it and were very understanding. I’m still not sure if something was wrong with this dish, whether something was off or if that is just how it’s meant to come (which I can’t imagine it was on purpose), but I would absolutely steer clear of the Chicken Larb. Unfortunately we won’t be returning as this really put a downer on our experience :(

    A good idea poorly executed. My best description is a badly reimagined Chin Chins. The venue needs to straighten its priorities. The seating structure has you sitting on top of other diners due to an aesthetically pleasing table design that doesn't give a single thought to patron comfort. It makes for an awkward and uncomfortable dining experience. The food is seemingly well priced until you receive your meal and realise it spares every expense in preparation. You will be transported back in time to memories of school camps. The staff were however nice and the place had a nice vibe to it. With a higher focus on the food and seating arrangements it could be fantastic.
