    Love this place. Not sure why in Australia businesses ask for tips especially in a country that has fair work Australia especially in a time when the cost of living is so high. It just creates an awkward silence when the option is created. That said my friends who were from Victoria and had their flight delayed. We were thankful they held the table. They loved the food and raved and look forward to coming again.

    Panoramic view and clean lines was a good first impression.Service was prompt and continued in a friendly but non-intrusive manner. We had a set menu but had plenty of variety and servings were generous. We were not rushed and enjoyed an excellent, relaxed lunch after visiting the Magritte exhibition. Can thoroughly recommend Crafted.
