I feel terrible for the person below that their experience was so terrible. Ours was the opposite. We had a great time. They must not have been expecting as many people as there were, but the staff (just 1 plus the chef) handled it very well.
Our meal was lovely, the meat cooked perfectly and a reasonable portion. Is quite pricey though.

Sounds like a great place. Very useful review.

I rarely give bad reviews, (check my reviews and see) but this place really takes the cake.
I took my partner here for our 5 year anniversary for something different, and it was memorable for all the WRONG reasons.

First impressions upon entering the restaurant was actually pretty good. Clean and neat. The menu seemed to have a decent range of dishes although very, very pricey. When we received our meals, I was disappointed to say the least. My partner ordered the Lamb Skewer for $25, and she was bought out a single skewer about 15cms long. Just like the ones you get in the supermarket, but you get 6 in a pack for $7..... After we went to pay for our 'meals', we were asked if we were happy with our meals. When we politely informed the owner of our disappointment, we were rudely laughed at by the owner, who then made sarcastic comments to the chef, who also laughed at us, and then muttered something under his breath. When we then complained about the service we were receiving, we were promptly told to 'eat elsewhere next time'.

Approximate cost: $25
