    We noticed this restaurant had a lot of bad reviews but it looked like it was from a disgruntled employee. So we went ahead and booked anyway giving them the benefit of the doubt. My wife and I were seated at 745pm we waited for a menu which was flicked onto the table as he walked past. The male waiter was so rude, and aggressive we have never been spoken to like that at a restaurant where we are paying for a service and food. Ordered a spaghetti marinara and a gnocchi. Both were terrible the spaghetti was so over cooked watery & the seafood was almost none existent. The gnocchi was tasteless resembling more of something prepackaged and heated up. Terrible that two classic Italian dishes were so poorly done in an Italian restaurant. The waiter asked if everything was ok as he passed by. Our response was no not really he said oh what why. We started to say it doesn’t taste very good. We hardly finished completing our sentence when he rudely snatched up the plates so fast it just about spilt all over us. He then said what you want. We didn’t want anything else the waiter then aggressively said get out. So the food was terrible and the service absolutely appalling waste of time and money.

    We visited here from Sydney last weekend. The Portside location is pleasant and interesting, the only negative being the noise from revellers at the bar next door. We had the steak, the bolognese pasta, the salmon, polenta chips and pancakes for dessert. The food was delicious and the service friendly.

    Sooo good, lots of fun. Had a great night tonight. Food, service, atmosphere all spot on. Will be back.

    Awful. This place is disgusting, the food is horrific and the staff are rude. Don’t even think about taking children there or dare to breastfeed, they will ask you to leave without even offering you a menu. Appalling!
