Amazing place to hangout with friends or have a date night. Happy hour was amazing and they had some really good cocktails too! Just be mindful that it’s a busy place so if that doesn’t bother you, you will enjoy! Booking a table in advance was soo helpful as we didn’t have to wait! Only had drinks this time around but will definitely return to try their food x

Great views over Melbourne but they like to play the music very loud so chatting with friends, is actually yelling at them. Also, while they seem to have plenty of staff, service is very slow…

Everything was fantastic. However liquid smoke was used on the onion relish on the burger and it was wayyy too overpowering. It hid the flavour of the burger meat. Being wagu it needed more subtle flavourings.
