    Overall a good evening. Having made the reservation 8 weeks prior, and having twice confirmed over the phone that a nice booth was requested for a very special anniversary, we were put in the very corner of the restaurant, away from the main drag of the space, and were faced with 2 tables of rather offensive diners who took away from our experience. Unfortunate, because everything else was good. Hopefully, next time they will LISTEN to customer requests.

    The veal cotoletta alla bolognese was so good I woke up the next day and wanted to go for lunch!!! Everything we ordered was superb. Right from my first bite of the Grandma Slice I knew we were in for a treat. Honestly, we eat out a lot and this was my best meal for 2025 thus far. Have already rebooked to take friends. Yum is a very basic description but honestly there are no words. The food at Neptune’s Grotto is THAT good!

    I don’t often bother with this but this was just such an outstanding experience! From a welcome from staff who knew me from previous restaurants to brilliant coverage for gluten free to such a great decor and the food and wine. My new favourite restaurant

    The food was delicious and the venue very cool. The service however left a lot to be desired. Friendly but very rushed. Felt like they couldn’t get you out of there fast enough and that was even an 8pm bar seating. Meant that you drank less and were full too quickly as things came out back to back. Didn’t make for an overall great experience as you spend over $300 but it’s all over in an hour. Also being seated at the bar, staff kept coming and having a drink of water or a coffee right in front of you. I think going into the back would have gone a long way in maintaining our experience.
