   Great food, amazing wine list, beautiful breeze through big open windows on a lovely summer evening with friends. This place is a big draw card in The Basin! Staff were super friendly and helpful. They adapted a couple of dishes for us which was fab. Would definitely recommend to others as a good place for a meal to celebrate , or just because!

   Ambience cosy and cool decor. Food was tasty but lacked salad options. Cocktails were good an extensive beverage list. It was very warm day and air conditioning wasn’t working well. Service was a bit disappointing- 1 staff not enough. Overall felt it was a little expensive at $100 per head.

   We have never had a bad experience at this little gem of a restaurant. Nick was our waiter and he was an absolute delight. He acknowledged our 15 year wedding anniversary and offered us a complimentary drink and even added a little humour into the conversation. Food was delicious as always. A few new additions to the menu would be nice especially for people who like to dine here frequently. We will be back without a doubt. Thank you for making our special day memorable.

   We love going to the peacock den… we’ve been going for years…. The ambiance, the service is always great!! … our biggest issue is the menu doesn’t change …. I would have thought after going 8 or 9 weeks ago that now in summer there would be a couple of items that would be a bit fresher …. But nope was still the same … shame we would actually go there MORE if only the menu changed … even if it was seasonal … No summer menu sadly :( Ps I’d love to see the prawns done in a tomatoe style ? Overall: The dishes were too heavy for a warm evening … nothing to break up the dishes …left our tummies feeling a bit blah …

   Feels like you’re in your own home with the couch setting, then the amazing food experience makes it’s a unique experience.
