Wow that's all I can say about this restaurant. Best food I have had in a long long time. Service spot on from the moment we walked in the restaurant till we left four hours later. Meals were value for money with fresh ingredients and mouth watering flavours. All 40 of us had a great night. If you are in Launceston check this place out.   (Nic - September, 2009)

WHAT AN AWFULL MEAL. What a very awfull ordinary meal. First of we asked for a wine, the waitress went away then came back said they did not have any of that left, we then ordered another wine, she came back opened it, it was the wrong wine totally different name and type of wine. One of the plates had an enormous chip in it,a very old discoloured chip ( why was it not thrown out) when pointed out to the waitress she said sorry you had to get that one, why was it earmarked for someone else. We asked what were the trio of dips and she said she would have to go away and check, she asked all the other staff and then said she would have to check with cook. One waitress was swearing in conversation within earshot of diners. Classy. The entree was ridicuousley enormous as the previous diner said, i think perhaps they should warn diners or perhaps make them a normal size. We have often gone to Launceston and thought we would like to try this restaurant, this time we thought we will use our diners book, BOY were we wrong, would not return again.   (anne m - See my reviews (48) - June, 2009)

Service was a joke! 27 of us sat for almost two hours before 2 of us got our main course.....25 minutes later the rest of the meals began to arrive. we got our breads AFTER our mains and then two people got their Entree at the same time as their main course..then tried to charge us for extra drinks...wont be going back.....very, very disappointing.   (Anne - September, 2008)

A let down.   (July, 2008)

The food was generally good with large portions. the entree was beyond what was expected, the main course was fantastic although the rice was flavourless. did not have dessert as i was so full from the first 2 courses.   (May, 2008)
