I don't know how I have not come here before. Like all restaurants in this small group of independently styled eateries, the cooking is focused on making thoughtful and careful use of exceptional ingredients that are seasonal. Don't expect edgy concept food. It is much better than that. I can for lunch and left totally satisfied (and content). I can imagine it may get quite noisy in there, however, as there are pretty much zero soft furnishings.

Cozy neighborhood restaurant that's easy to book on the weekend. Food was a bit mediocre, but cooked with quality produce. Nothing was surprisingly good or bad. I would only come if I'm around the area. Service was okay. There was a moment when the server was putting down cutlery, and my friend had her phone and glass near her right hand side. The server put the knife half on her phone and the fork in between the space of the phone and the glass. I'm not sure if that was necessary at all and a hygienic choice. I'm sure we wouldn't mind having the cutlery place a bit away from our right-hand side. I just found it a bit passive and agreesive and kinda laughed it off after the server left.

Wow wow wow!!! What a fantastic lunch. We arrived at 2:30pm and left at 10pm with a few new friends to boot! As soon as we walked in we immediately felt relaxed. The team were so welcoming. The food was delicious, they had a great wine list and the cocktails were next level! We were having such a great time that we ended up ordering more cocktails after lunch and ended up chatting to the people on the next table (our new friends!). At 6:30 the team set up a new table outside and we kept talking and drinking into the night. They even provided a few complimentary nibbles to keep us going! It was one of the nicest and most unexpectedly fun lunches I’ve had in a long time. The team really made the experience what it was, they all worked so well together. Thanks guys, we will definitely be back!

Love this little neighbourhood restaurant. I don’t come here often enough. Great food and not too pricey for the quality. Everything tasted great except the croquettes and the rillette which were just not to our taste. Loved the Ray wings and the scallops! We had a table for two outside which was just a tad too small for our plates and drinks and water. Service was friendly and the transfer to a counter seat inside after our time limit was up was well managed.

Really cute interior, great atmosphere, date night low lit vibes with lots of hustle and bustle. The food was yummy, but pretty expensive for small portions. And sadly I wasn’t blown away by the choices of red wine by the glass. Lovely service though, I would go back but might wait for an update to the menu.
