   Excellent meals, especially the plant based options. A lot of choice for the vegans and it was actually delicious. The space we had for our large group was nice and we had it for quite a while. Staff were pretty good.

   The Criterion has great bar prices and a happy hour. The food is excellent and very well priced. The staff and service are excellent and there is a sports and pokies section there too. Overall, a great place to start the evening and maybe carry on too!!

   The ambience was much better than the google pic reflected. We did go at a busy time, and had never been there before. However, we did say we may go there next year for our catch up lunches with family…Prefer table service re ordering of food, but we waited until the line was small.

    Great place for a get together with a bunch of friends. I have been organising them here for more than 10 years. Excellent CBD venue.
