Situated in Barangaroo and facing the harbour this place just had the right vibe for a perfect romantic evening, we tried a variety of dishes including crocodile meat and kangaroo besides the chicken salad which I had, there were happy hours too for drinks which worked well for the group, the onion rings were simply yum and married well with cocktail.

Here's my honest review: ✨Location✨ I think the location is ok. It's close to the water and there's some outdoor seating with a view ✨Price✨ I think it's a little pricey but not super expensive like a steak house ✨Ambiance✨ I think the place is elegant and has lots of decoration. ✨Drinks✨ On the pricier side but I did not have one unfortunately ✨Recommendation✨ I would not go here again. I had an awful experience with customer service and that's enough for me to never want to revisit. The truffle mashed potatoes were amazing and so I would be open to trying the food again maybe at a different location. ✨Food✨ I went in for a burger but got the kangaroo steak instead. I will say kangaroo is not for me. It's a relatively chewy meat and I prefer more tender cuts. I would have rather to ribeye but at least it was an experience I was able to check off my list. ✨Customer Service✨ This is why I scored them so low. The customer service was absolutely awful. When I first got there the waitress came up to me and I had been sitting for less than 2 seconds so I didn't know what I wanted. She didn't come and bring me water for over 5 minutes. She checked on the table next to me three times while I waited for her to come over. When she finally returned I told her I wanted the crocodile burger and she explains to me they were out. I was very sad and she recommended the kangaroo. I asked if that was a burger, she said no and then it was just offered silence. I feel like as a good waitress your job is to then recommend things in line with what your customer wants or at least care to ask. I felt super uncomfortable so I just went with the kangaroo even though I had my heart set on a burger that night. I was also sitting by myself and it's just customary that if someone is dining alone you should be mindful of that. Sitting and waiting while you're driving alone is extra awful. And we can all agree that dining alone isn't always the most comfortable experience but having horrible customer service makes it way worse. Not once did my waitress come check on me while I was eating so I felt so horrible that I got it to go box and took my food back to eat it in my hotel. She didn't even come back for the check so I ended up leaving cash on the table and walking out. Literally worst customer service I've ever experienced and I know this isn't the Aussie way because I've had nothing but great experiences since I got here.

The manager (i think) ruined the vibe. At entry, the lovely hostess said that we will have to be seated upstairs because we had no booking which was fine specially because we ended up being the only ones upstairs. The food was also good, came out quickly. We had the medallion and sirloin as well as the truffle fries. The guy waiter upstairs was also nice. What ruined the vibe for me, and i almost wanted to leave before ordering because of this, was, who I assumed to be the Manager. Following the hostess upstairs the guy starts yelling where are you going repeatedly. I ignored him because excuse me? Were we supposed to walk back to speak with him? Or did he expect us to yell across the restaurant that we’re following the hostess? 3 mins after being seated he finally goes upstairs and starts talking loudly to the hostess about why we are being seated upstairs. I would hope that he’s usually more professional than this, but not too sure like I said, we were the only ones upstairs and only the downstairs area was full.

Awesome atmosphere coupled with a great service and friendly staff. Steaks, Ribs and burgers were on the point. We ordered different cooking options (medium, medium rare...etc) and all the steaks were cooked just perfectly....Highly recommended !!

Popular place on the waterfront. Tried the Crocodile burger which was an experience. Different...but nice. Only issue was they wouldn't split the bill for the table. In a business district, with a lot of business travelling customers around, you'd have thought they'd accommodate it...but, the food and setting more than makes up for it. Edit: I went back a few days later and tried the lamb on a hook. Wow. Fantastic. Highly recommended.
