Came here for 4 others for a birthday dinner. We ordered the Sweet Potato Crisps, Prawn and Avocado Salad, Panfried Crispy Skin Barramundi, Prawn and Pesto Pizza, XO E Granchio Pizza and Orecchiette Alfredo Pasta. The Sweet Potato Crisps were thin and crispy, seasoned well, and had a nice guacamole to accompany it. The Prawn and Avocado Salad was very nice; all the ingredients were very fresh and the yuzu dressing was a very nice touch. The crumbed fried prawns were cooked perfectly, and both the avocado and mango were at the perfect ripeness for the salad. The Panfried Crispy Skin Barramundi was perfectly cooked, and it had great seasoning, crispy skin, and was complimented well by the sauce vierge. The Prawn and Pesto Pizza was tasty, the prawns and pesto went very well together. However, the XO E Granchio Pizza was a little disappointing, the flavours didn't quite work for our group (especially the XO sauce), and the spanner crab seemed a little unfresh as it had a very fishy taste. On the other hand, the Orecchiette Alfredo Pasta was probably the group's favourite dish - crispy pork crackles, perfectly cooked pork belly and al dente pasta, all with an amazing creamy sauce bringing it together. The whole group had enough to eat and we were all very satisfied at the end of the meal. The service was not too long. Additionally, our waiter, Anthony, was friendly, funny and helpful; offering suggestions on what to order, checking in with us throughout the meal, and assisting us with photos. The atmosphere was good; nice decorations, waterview (apart from the carpark next door) and because the restaurant was not too busy, it was not too noisy. Overall, this was a very enjoyable experience, with high quality food, and service comparable to fine dining. We only paid ~$32pp. I definitely recommend the Orecchiette Alfredo Pasta if you visit. We will be back!

We had lunch there during weekdays. The food was ok and the prices were reasonable. However, the menu was limited and mostly pizza and pasta. I didn't feel the place relaxing and the music was a bit loud with all the folding doors closed. Though they had coffee, there was no cakes to go with it.

Excellent customer service. Unfortunately, the food was underwhelming. Waffles were so incredibly hard that there was no soft centre. Nutella was advertised on the waffles. However, chocolate sauce was used instead. The toppings were warm and mushy. As for the piece of avocado toast, that tasted of fish. I would not recommend this restaurant. I gave an extra star because of the friendly waiter I had.

What a find in the middle of Hurstville. A nice, fresh and new, affordable place to dine and the menu and service are great. Perched on the 8th floor of the Travelodge Hotel behind what used to be Coles and Woolworths the views to the north west and the coast are wonderful. We've been twice and will definitely return.

Adding another reviews as this evening was exceptional. The cocktails were amazing. I had the porchetta which should be permanently on the menu and the tiramisu pizza was delicious. Picked the worst night for a rooftop bar, it had rained all day. But we still had an enjoyable meal. Shared entrees of arancini balls, scallops, and tuna. Then had mains of barramundi, balmain bug ravioli and a steak. The service was fantastic and the wine prices reasonable. When you pay the bill they even give you a $20 credit for your next visit.
