Went on Valentines day, surprisingly not was not that busy. They were definitely either short staffed or had new staff onboard. Many dishes were unavailable (at 8:15pm). Simon Gault greeted us well. It took almost an hour and a half for our food to come out. It looked very amateur and tasted bland. The only dish i liked was mashed potatoes.A very unfortunate experience for a restaurant of this calibre.
Environment is excellent. We had the fish for share. It tastes nice, but portion is not enough for a group of people. The staff sometimes is lost, but they are friendly. Overall, a nice restaurant at viaduct.
Pretty high quality restaurant at viaduct harbour. Staffs are friendly and helpful. All the dishes are delicious especially their kids set menu 4th photo that’s pretty next level nice kids meal.
Really nice restaurant in the viaduct. The entrance is off to the side which makes it a bit hard to find but keep an eye out for a giraffe and you’ll know you’re at the right place.Quite a large area inside with tables and booths available. The bar and kitchen is towards the back of the dining area.The menu is interesting with individual plates or platters to share. With our group of four, we opted for two starter plates, the suckling pig to share as well as a side of truffle fries. We had the calamari schnitzel and the chicken ravioli to share. The calamari was very interesting as it almost had the texture of actual schnitzel but made from calamari. The sauce of the ravioli was really tasty. The suckling pig was tender and crispy. They show the tenderness by cutting it with a plate. The sauce that came with the pig was really nice too.Dessert was the weak point of the meal. Interesting flavours and textures but it didn’t give that sweet cap I normally look for. The souffle was nice but I found it too sour and the coconut on the side had an almost sour flavour. The brulee was also nice but the lemon curd was a bit on the sour side for my liking. The chocolate pudding was good, with chocolate oozing from the middle. The Liquorice and Lime marshmallow was very interesting and surprisingly tasty. It didn’t have a strong anise flavour and the pineapple that was served with it was nice.Really good and friendly service. They even changed my friends drink since she didn’t like how it tasted. The only complaint about the service was that they cut the pig as soon as it got on the table so it was difficult getting a picture of it.A really good restaurant option in the viaduct with really nice food and service.
Went to this place for our office Christmas lunch this year.Service – excellentDrinks selection – excellentEntre – We had some oysters, mussels, fish pate and crunchy pancetta. Yum… They were all yum!Main – We shared suckling pig, whole fish and spring lamb. Wow… Amazing!Dessert – Unfortunately they are not good. Otherwise, I will give them 5 stars. I was disappointed with their desserts. We had some chocolate pudding and some kind of marshmallow / jelly thingy. Nope, they didn’t work for me.
