It was our proposal dinner and mentioned it on the reservation. Requested a house dessert for the ocassion but apparently nobody read our message. We order a steak medium and brought it medium-raw. There was even blood on the plate. We had to ask to get it more cooked. The pork tomahawk was cold. The experience was not what we where expecting.

Food was excellent but the overall experience was ruined by seating provided. We were seated at a corner table with 4 seats even though I booked a table for 2. When asked to be moved to an adjacent empty 2 seater we were told its booked, No one was was seated in it for the time we were there.

The food was absolutely delicious, with every dish beautifully presented and bursting with flavour. Their cocktail menu was just as impressive! The service was attentive without being overbearing, making the whole evening even more enjoyable. If you're looking for a place with great energy, top-notch food, and fantastic drinks, this spot is a must-visit!

A quick visit to Melbourne and was absolutely worth a visit - the steaks were cooked to perfection (we like medium rare which can be hard) and the chips even better along with their pepper sauce amazing. A great spot - sat outside perfect!! Also the attention from staff was excellent - our waitress was a delight!

We ordered 2 waygu and 1 grain fed scott fillet steak, want it to be medium and medium rare... turn out both is medium well.... and the waygu is extremely salty, the quality of meat is ok... just worst cook in the world. The service lady is nice but miscommunication between their staff, we want Coke zero... but they don't have, should let us know it is Pepsi first.... not come to the table and said it is Pepsi.... what the.... I will never come to here again... I cannot believe that the steakhouse in Melbourne is a lot worst than Sydney.
