Amazing food! The best meal we’ve had out in a long time. Went for my husband’s birthday with our 2 teenage sons. Scallop entrees beautifully presented with amazing flavours, our steak mains were delicious and even our side dishes top notch. Couldn’t fault the lovely...desserts, crème brûlée and brownie incredible. Service was efficient. Even though it was a busy Sunday night for them our courses were served at just the right pace. We walked away 4 very satisfied customers. Will definitely be back.More

Good location, food and service. Oysters, salmon were good. Would be good if craft ice is used in cocktails for the price.

We paid $264 for a piece of wagyu steak. It was ok but I’d rather pay $24 for a similar sized piece at my local pub and at least have it come with potatoes , a salad or some fries

My family and I dined on 15 July 2023. The restaurant was captivating, with the staff so welcoming, from the front attendant escorting us to our table. Our waiter and since it's an open kitchen, a few chefs spread their enjoyment by smiling at other...guests dining in the restaurant and us. We ordered the artisan bread selection and battered oysters for entrée. The truffle mascarpone spread on the slice of bread was so delectable and yet different. Battered oysters were crunchy, hot and juicy (on their own, it's already a main). For Main, we ordered the scotch and T-bone steak to share; I personally had the tiger prawns. And shared sides of fries, salad, macaroni and cheese. Our waiter offered matching wines and cocktails to accompany our meal, which was a hit. The waiter who served us was professional and accommodating to our dining needs. It was a definite fine dining experience from start to finish. I recommend that anyone should give it ago.More

The restaurant is situated in the viaduct Harbour area and we felt they had a solid Happy hour offering including $7 beers and $10 glasses of wines plus $2 oysters. When we went we got 12 plump and juicy oysters served with Mignonette sauce, Tabasco...and lemon. The service was prompt and friendly when we went.More

Firstly the food was great, but it was overshadowed by poor service. There were plenty of wait staff available, but they seemed disinterested and disorganised. Our group of 7 realised this rather quickly when we had to ask for our drinks order to be taken,...then ask what the specials were, then ask for our food orders to be taken. We were never asked if we needed more drinks and our wine lists and wine glasses were taken away without even asking, if we wanted wine. Our group realised that we were here just to eat, which we did and we went on to a nearby restaurant/bar for the 3 bottles of wine, that we should have had we our meal. This certainly was one of the worst dining experiences I have had for a number of years.More

Our Tour Guide has highly recommended for us this place. It is very well located. The staff cares a lot; they are very polite and helpful. The food is excellent. It was recommended to us like a "Seafood-Place" the menu; however, is wide and you...can have delicious steak as well as amazing oysters. I do highly recommend the bloody mary with oyster!More

Recommended by a local and didn’t disappoint. Bluff oysters (currently in season and the only wild oyster left in the world apparently) were fenomenal. Other seafood great as well. Very generous portions, great service. Would recommend

Loved the Bluff oysters and Korean beef tartare. Both the lamb and the venison were excellent. Wines suggested by our server went perfectly with the food.
