Amazing location, superb decoration and lighting, and very friendly, and (mostly) professional service. The views are stunning and general vibes in this place are good. The food however needs to catch up. I had a chicken breast with fennel and pine nuts risotto and my companion tried the fried zucchini flowers and some squid. The chicken wasn’t the best quality and I suspect this may have something to do with the supplier or cooking method. The risotto however was very very good and the broth that came with it was just incredible. The zucchini flowers were broken unfortunately (all of them – not the best presentation) and the squid was very chewy/gummy (disappointment). Food presentation was good but it took forever to get our food on the table (+/- 35 minutes), drinks also were slow.
The view is hard to beat not just in Newcastle but pretty much anywhere in the world and that’s not an exaggeration. The food is usually really good, some dishes better then others but the lamb for two is a must have. Service is generally pretty good, staff are friendly and well mannered but they could probably do with a couple of people on the floor as when it gets busy it seems like they’re stretched a little thin and make mistakes. It’s not a huge place so even one extra set of hands would probably help but it’s only a minor grievance.
Been there several times. Always great food, great wines, great customer service. Would always take my guests and visitors there. Be sure to book in advance as it can get quickly booked especially for weekend nights.
