We had air dried angus bresaola - rocket - parmesan as antipasti. We shared the mains; Charcoal spatchcock - peperonata sauce with smoked capsicum - rosemary and angus (marble 5), caramelised onions with rocket.... and tiramisus for dessert!... with my typical double espresso.. of course :) Capriccio bresaola was fantastic! Spatchcock and steak prepared perfectly... simple flavours makes a perfect dish when ingredients are respected as should. Tiramisu was a real honest tiramisu. Not any kind of new fancy version that is probably ruined with trying to be too fancy. Just loved it. Keep food real - and its good. They also have nice wines.. ask from staff. Really good, fast, professional service. Knowing their food well. --------- Revisited 1.6.2017 Had baby snapper, yellowfin tuna and squid for starters. All great, still keeping #4 as rating. Great place!

The staff seemed busy with serving customers so we waited politely and patiently for 10 minutes until my husband approached one of the staff and told her we were waiting for a table for breakfast. She told us to take one of the vacant tables. As we walked to the table another staff enquired what we were doing and told us that the breakfast service was closed and they were only serving take away. There were two women already waiting for takeaway coffee who were also being completely ignored. I have never come across a more unfriendly place that made you feel so invisible. We walked away knowing we're never coming back.

I ask you .... on a balmy summer's evening in Sydney where would you rather be! Only booked 10mins before arriving so lucky to get the best table closest to the water! Full house btw. Baby snapper with olives, grapes and capers and Black Angus with caramelised onions and rocket salad. Tiramisu to top it all off. Who cares if the service is a little "Fiji time". I'm chilled and watching the sunset.

Beautiful location and good atmosphere. A much more relaxed boaty vibe. Food was well priced. The tasting menu looked appealing for $65pp but due to not eating red meat, there would be too many changes so we opted to order from the menu. Food was good in portion size. Everything was just ok, nothing amazingly special but just ok. Highlight for me was dessert. I'm a sweets lover and the tiramisu and Nutella Bombs were great! <br/ Waitstaff need more training. The one bloke with the glasses and shaved head, probably head waiter was excellent, asked us about our meal and described the dishes. Other staff not so great; forgetting wine, share plates etc. if all staff were trained like this bloke the experience would hVe been a 4/5 not a 3.5/5.<br/ Would like to see a few more specials added if I were to come back. <br/

Comfortable seating even though too close to each other and great food. Went for the Degustation menu and wasn't disappointed. Tasty and freshly cooked dishes, well decorated. Friendly service. Coffee wasn't that great though but probably personal.
