Absoloutly fantastic experience. We turned up with a large group and they were able to accommodate us without a booking. Helen was an incredible host, she had great banter and was able to deal with our relentless questions. The best tasting i've ever done.

Incredible lunch! Food was amazing, service was on point. Thank you to our lovely server and his well timed 21st jokes for a birthday gurrl! Stunning spot in the middle of winter at lunch time Food was fantastic.Its was about $120 each for 3 people. We got alot of food, 11 dishes all up and wine so I think it is very reasonable for the quality of food, the service, environment and the view. Thank you for having us. Highly recommend, will definitely be back.

Truly 10/10! An absolutely gorgeous location, delicious food, and outstanding service, all for reasonable pricing. Our waiter Glenn was serving us for the evening and he was just amazing. We shared the sourdough to start, followed by the beautiful slow roasted lamb, paired with a lovely bottle of wine. Bonus points that it is dog friendly too, and in such a beautiful location, what more could you want :) would absolutely recommend.

Absolutely spectacular food. The octopus and the cured fish were standouts. Service was great and everything was served promptly. Overall the vive was great, the restaurant itself is a huge space but beautifully decorated and in an amazing spot. Highly recommend!

Had an early dinner reservation which coincided with a large Xmas party group. The size and layout of the restaurant space meant it was quite echo-y and difficult to hear each other. The meals are expensive, quite elaborate in the variety of flavours, sourced from fresh local ingredients and very tasty. The potatoes alone I would return for, I’ll start saving up now.
