We were going to see a concert at Marvel stadium and wanted an option that was: 1) relatively close, 2) with a good booking time prior to the first act, and 3) with a nice menu that suited our range in tastes. Tap831 fit the bill for what we wanted for a booking. We were welcomed in and seated at a fun little table in an alcove. The host (maybe a manager?) who seated us was friendly and let us know about the ordering process at the bar. Other patrons were clearly concert-goers, too. The menu matched what was online. Unfortunately, what we were served did not match our expectations or what was listed on the menu. Location was nice, and service was good. All in all it was an ok pre-concert experience. But it might be disappointing as a planned spot to go to without an event.

Roast pumpkin salad with grilled salmon STUNNING as always. Only disappointment as the fries at $15 a bowl and there were lots of small, thinly cut chips that were over done, so at $15 and a third being inedible, that was not so good. But to sum up, terrific food and a great team.

I had the Barramundi, literally a wooden skewer stick with a diced size of capsicum, an onion and god know what, I cant remember? Underwhelming! Also the matchbox side size of potatoes was cold. As for drinks, the $25 mojiito had hardly any alcohol and disd nit taste at all like a mojiito. Quite disappointing overall.

It wasn't until I went to pay the bill that I found out the drinks we ordered were not part of the "happy hour" reduced price. We were not told that when we ordered, which spoilt the occasion a little.
