    We had an amazing experience last night at Hacienda. The staff looked after us with a great view, as I booked a few months ago and requested it. So nice that it was remembered. The food was to die for, amazing. I loved every dish. The Manager was always checking in to see if we are ok. The beautiful waitresses had the most amazing smile that said ‘welcome’. Please don’t lose that. Most of all, my family of 4 come to the city every year to celebrate the years end. We talked, laughed, made fun of each other, watched a guy swim across the Yarra, and drank. The night was a triumph, the team were a big part of it. Can’t wait to go back.

    Excellent service and delicious banquet. The $65 option was so much food we opted to share dessert. Highly recommend.

    There were 10 of us for a team lunch. We could not fault anything about this restaurant. The food was superb, the ambience was terrific. The service was exceptional. Can’t wait to come back.
