Anthony and his staff were FANTABULOUS. When I appeared at the door in my wheelchair, Anthony was apologetic about the one big step since they were in an historic building. At the same time, in true Aussie manner, things were sorted, wines and beers were poured, and wondrous food was consumed. The staff and chef easily and appropriately accommodated a vegan request and Anthony’s wine suggestions were excellent. Thank you for a wonderful night.

Cheers Douglas, it was our pleasure hosting your group. The wine you loved is called Gorgo Custoza Garganega. Enjoy!

After a long day and trying to find the parking station we booked on line , google directions sent us back over the Anzac bridge we arrived 5 minutes late and were greeted by the fantastic staff . A drink arrived asap , menu discussed with the waitress our 3 appetizers were sensational, arancini, kingfish and the fritto Misto. Topped with a bottle of Italian white wine we had the spatchcock between the 2 of us with the broccolini. Had to go to the state theater for a show , could have stayed longer . Great food and atmosphere, staff are very knowledgeable on food and wines .
