Great food and very good value. Bookings can be challenging. Very busy and can be a bit noisy sometimes.

Busy little place, came for lunch, bosses shout. We had starters /​entrees and a main. Would definitely recommend the garlic bread (was sweet garlicky smothered in olive oil) fried calamari don’t expect yum Cha serving sizes lol how ever definitely made with love and the grilled haloumi (1 word yumz) Fried chicken wings, smoked salmon bruschetta ok very average if you ask me. Chicken was dry. Mains we all had a variety from steak to pasta, deep fried chicken, fish, antipasto, salads. Gnocchi was ok very rich if you like it buttery. Oh my poor mate her fried chicken was dry as hell. Non the less she ate it (not) lol yummy wine, plenty of water. Staff are really nice, excellent service, top notch! Would I come back? Probably not. Is a bit over priced. I’ll be honest, I’m bit of a bistro kinda girl #honest

Went here for dinner and they were extremely busy for a Wednesday night!
The food was quite good, I had the Crab Burger ($ 20) which was tasty, and the others had their meals with no complaints (the Spaghetti with prawns looked really good). It’s pricey but the restaurant is modern and seaside.
We had a table of 7, but they were constantly reminding us that we had to be out a certain time, which slightly bothered me.
Besides that, it was a great night.

Arrived on a rainy Sunday night and was greeted warmly, the service was quick and friendly. The food arrived quickly and tasted great. Only complaint was the loudness of the restaurant, not ideal for a quiet meal

Another great experience. Wife ordered the Gnocchi and loved it. Simple blend of wilted spinach, pine nuts and pumpkin in a buttery sauce. I ordered the surf and turf. There is an interesting twist with the 250g scotch fillet accompanied by 3 huge king crab legs. Steak was perfectly cooked to medium rare order. Staff were courteous attentive and the place has a great vibe.

Very nice for a lazy lunch — American Italian food is a very New Yorkish thing but there are very few examples in Syd.
Must admit I only came here to try the pulled pork burger which was phenomenal and I mean that, pulled from gods pet pig I imagine — juicy and spicy also forget the knife and fork just grab the damn thing and eat it like a last meal.
They also have several gluten free options for those concerned and the prices are very reasonable.
