   Food was good, but took nearly an hour to arrive on a Friday lunchtime. Restaurant was busy, but not packed. Delayed food was on the daily specials list. Worth a visit, but not if you're in a rush.

   While the food was very good the service we received from the young lady serving our table was excellent. She was very helpful in our menu selection was cheerful and very professional in her work. I only wish all restaurant staff were that good. Our meals were reasonably priced. The only criticism we would have is the noise level was too high for our liking probably because the bar was very busy.

   Ivy and JackResponded on September 23, 2019Hi James, thank you for taking the time to write such a lovely review.

   My wife and I love staying at the hotel and using the restaurant for a quick bite or a lovely dining room meal. Our reservation at 5.30 was superb and the meals we selected were tremendous. However, we noticed by 6.45 and 12 tables dining, the minimalist staff on the floor were over worked. This affected the service provided not for us, but for the other guests. A huge tick of approval to all on Sat night, 31st Aug. The duck rillettes for entree was superb. The apparelled and braised lamb was sensational also. My wife’s crime brûlée was also lovely. Well done to all.

   Ivy and JackResponded on September 4, 2019Hi Chris and Sue Thank you for taking the time to write such lovely words about your meal on Saturday - we're glad to hear that you enjoyed your experience. We thank you for your patience during the pre-show rush! We have passed this great feedback onto our staff, and hope to see you again in the future.

   Half our table got fed together the other half had to wait! We had a matinee to see at His Majesty theatre which we did inform the staff when half the table didn’t get the meals with the first half! Due to the delay we missed the first sact of the show! Given it’s approximately to the theatre I would think they would off special menu and a priority service

    Venue was very noisy, although admittedly it was a Friday evening and quite busy. Initial service (taking orders) was slow with a long delay until food was delivered, with aperitif delivered at same time as main courses (?!). I had the fish (gold band snapper) which was excellent but I find it hard to see how a piece of dish pretty much on its own can be considered a "main course" -- at least a small serve of vegetables or salad should be included. Fortunately, I had the foresight to inquire and added a 'side' to make it a proper meal (but also made it a very expensive meal). Slow service and slow food delivery meant we had to rush our meal to make our show on time - despite that fact we noted this when we made the reservation.

    Ivy and JackResponded on September 2, 2019Hi Gerry, thank you for taking the time to provide us with feedback on your recent experience.

    We were 3 people, a lemonade came first, a while later a bottle of water and a coffee, then one of us ordered a panini which came quick, but then took at least half and your to get the rest of the food. Hamburger was ok, pizza was terrible and the panini ofcourse was cold by the time we got all the food together. Then, they have a policy that you cannot get your left over food for take away, and if you do, you have to fill out a form. I will never go back neither recommend it to a friend.

    Ivy and JackResponded on August 26, 2019Hi Gilda, thank you for taking the time to provide us with your feedback. Unfortunately we did experience wait times at Friday lunch, due to a large amount of customers ordering at the same time and we apologise that your meals were affected by this.

    Did not honor the entertainment card for the two transactions that were 30 seconds apart, it appeared difficult for the waitsperson to setup a tab as there were ‘slightly’ busy and looked under staffed. When I questioned why they wouldn't honour it was because the transaction had already been processed. My third transaction I didn’t bother... I decided a review would be worth my time. Had a booking but wanted to sit in the front section and order at the bar- which was fine however we were told there was only the one menu, not a bar menu also. The ladies toilet room was almost out of paper- last two cubicles only had a roll in each, 45 minutes later there was none... overall it was dismal, disappointing and not worth re visiting nor recommending. Plenty of other business within walking distance that would have loved my two course meal and 4 cocktails, they simply didn’t!

    Ivy and JackResponded on August 16, 2019Hi Kathleen, we sincerely thank you for your feedback. We are pleased we were able to provide you with your Entertainment Card discount for your meals, however we should have set up a Tab for your entire bill, we can do this through holding a credit card at the bar. Thanks for advising on the bathroom facilities, this has been addressed to avoid this in the future. We appreciate your time to provide feedback and hope to welcome you back to demonstrate the level of service we are able to provide.

    I booked a table for two two days in advance was seated at our reserved table. We got up to get food only to find people sitting at out table upon returning. Hostess was unwilling to ask them to move instead offering us a sub standard bench table seated with other people not ideal when you had wanted to have a breakfast date with your partner. Upon realising we were likely to be waiting 15 minutes for our eggs to be cooked we left and went elsewhere

    Booked due to advertised special for 'chicken parma and pint'. Asked to substitute pint with glass of wine (which was advertised as being cheaper than the pint). Told we could not do this. Then went to order a parma from the menu as this is what we wanted - there was no parma available. Told there was only Moroccan Chicken available from menu. At this point we cancelled and went across the road to enjoy the 'parma and pint' offer from the competition, which could actually be ordered as parma and wine - no problem!

    Ivy and JackResponded on July 19, 2019To whom it may concern, we have spoken with our staff and apologise that you were under the impression the parma had sold out; our staff informed us that you wanted to use the Entertainment Book offer which was not available in conjunction with our parmi, hence Moroccan Chicken was offered as a similar substitute (applicable with the discount). Our parma & pint was still available, at it's special price of $25. We appreciate your feedback regarding the wine and have passed this onto our team.

    We went for the Frozen party. Staff coped well despite entertainment being an hour late. Unfortunately the entertainment wasn’t really worth it and the children weren’t entertained as we ate. Also for a sold out kids party there didn’t have any choc bombs available! And no substitute offered although later they brought out a small scoop of icecream. Food was great tho and service, was just a shame the party didn’t quite work out.

    Ivy and JackResponded on July 19, 2019Hi Michelle, thank you for your understanding and patience as we attempted to find a replacement Elsa, after the first was unable to attend at the last minute due to circumstances beyond our control. At our previous parties, the children are able to be entertained while you eat which unfortunately was not the case this time. In regards to the choc tops, we are disappointed that we ran out of stock however pleased to hear your kids enjoyed the ice-cream. We hope to welcome you back again soon.

    I would say this restaurant was ordinary, it certainly wasn’t awful but nothing stood out. We weren’t greeted when we walked in, I had to go and find menus and then go and ask for kids menus. The food was ok, large servings but nothing great, the two of us that had burgers agreed that the major ingredient seemed to be mayonnaise! It had such good reviews I guess I was hoping for better. The staff were pleasant and the restaurant very clean but don’t think we would bother going back.

    Food was decent: fresh, reasonable spread. Would rate very well except IMITATION maple flavoured syrup. WTF??? Staff were friendly but completely flustered. Was school holidays so I’m guessing busier than usual for them. Also we were seated directly in front of a MEGA TV. I know it’s there to keep the kiddies from being feral but it was awful. Seats also backed onto the line for the omelette station which was very uncomfortable.

    Booked online, clearly with children as we requested two high chairs. When we arrived it was really noisy and it turns out they had two functions. Nobody contacted us to say there’d be functions on which meant the place wasn’t suitable for children, and they didn’t have a table ready for us anyway. Ended up having to find dinner elsewhere.

    Food was great, we came in on Mother’s day for breakfast and the girl who served us was so beautiful and make me feel very special for mother’s Day. 😍
