  We totally enjoyed the evening , except for the standard of food preparation .. presentation was superb , but unfortunately everything was overcooked and not cooked properly relative to the type of meat or poultry ordered.
  The kangaroo , which is a delicate lean meat was poorly prepared , tough & chewy and over cooked. The garnish & sauce were excellent.
  The duck , was very similar as the kangaroo , totally overcooked , tough & chewy but the garnish & sauce were excellent.
  The same thing with the steak , totally overcooked , tough & chewy but the garnish & sauce were excellent.
  Even the ratatouille was average , although well presented , it was no better than you could make at home.
  The food quality was that of a pub/hotel meal not an upmarket restaurant.
  We were a party of 12 & would have spent nearly $1000- , and every time we go out to a restaurant we expect to enjoy something special and different , that we could not cook at home.
  Also , aside from the food , it was very noisy & almost impossible to enjoy conversation comfortably.

  Last minute walk-ups on a cold, wet and windy Wednesday night, but the greeting we received was warm and friendly and the bistro style menu was excellent.
  The quality of the food was faultless- scallops perfectly cooked in a creamy mornay sauce, rich onion soup, hearty lamb shanks with the meat just falling off the bone and a superb confit duck leg with wilted spinach leaves. Desserts of crepes and meringue were also delicious and the wine list commendable, with plenty of options in the $50-$60 range (you can also BYO)
  Would certainly recommend and we will definitely be back!
