Great ambience, however the restaurant really needs to work on its food quality to charge customers at this price range. Ordered a mushroom risotto, grilled barramundi and an octopus tapas today. Plating of the risotto looked mediocre (looked more like a bowl of porridge, which I would expect more effort into it when your charge $34 for a risotto) and it was tasteless. The grilled Barramundi was overcooked, salad was not well-seasoned either. I really hope the restaurant would work on its quality otherwise the nice view would go to waste.

The food can be quite good- albeit on the smaller side and quite pricy for an evening out. The fish tartare was oddly served with Saos biscuits and the duck over cooked. The staff are super lovely. Service: Dine in Meal type: Dinner Price per person: A$80–100 Food: 4 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 4

The food was lovely but the service was incredibly poor, it felt like the waiter did not want to be there and everything seemed to be a bother. Disappointed. Food: 3 Service: 1 Atmosphere: 2
