    Eatien here heaps, always pretty good even though above averages prices, probably the last time for a while though now. Table of 15- all ordered at the same time, half the table had eaten before the other half was actually given their food. Calamari was not very nice, tasted like it was frozen, 2 people ordered it, both didnt eat it. Ordered Pork Belly $40, was actually served what looked like two strip's of pork rashers, would cost about $5 at Coles to buy yourself. Overpriced, wasn't even busy to justify the poor miss timing of food service. Couldn't be bothered to complain on the day. Just won't rush back again. A shame really.

    I got the steak salad and chips. They make a nice steak but it is very hard for you to get it as ordered. I order medium rare but most of the time it comes well done. The inconsistency is normal here which is a pity because when it does come as ordered it is really nice. The staff are really excellent, welcoming and the table service was spot on. If they could maintain better quality control I would give them a 5 but unfortunately they are unable to at this stage.

    We appreciate your feedback Will and have passed it on to the kitchen team.
