It was a cold night and it stayed cold indoors, my feet are cold as I write this. The service was super slow and seemingly disorganized. We had to keep attracting the attention of the staff who seemed to forget to follow up everything. We asked for Shiraz, perhaps a wine list. She came back in a few minutes, 'was that two glasses of Shiraz?'. We said we'd like the wine list. It arrived but then 10 -15 minutes passed and we finally flagged her down. It was 40 minutes after we arrived that we got the wine. We watched it sit on the bar for 5 minutes. Just waiting. Because we waited so long we could enjoy the decor. It is utterly tasteless and nastily cheap. Really, the food was pretty good, but everything else suggests going somewhere else.

This restaurant is something that Bendigo has been lacking and needed. A fresh, modern Australian…read moretake on Asian dishes done really well. Beautiful decor, great food and cocktails. The stand out dishes on our table would have easily been the bao buns (served DIY style with the buns, crispy pork, bean shoots and coriander deconstructed for you to mix as you please, along with hoisin sauce), the vegetable spring rolls (quite large, served with greens to add on top to your liking) and sand mullet (served whole to your table to carve - be careful of the bones). We finished out the evening sitting outside, drinking espresso martinis and enjoying the warm summers night. A great experience.

All I can say was that this place had an absolutely amazing service.

They had an awesome beer garden, and not only that, there were free lighters for people, no doubt because smokers tend to have a habit of losing lighters (namely because they get leant out and never returned). Sure, the beer selection wasn't too great, but it was still a pretty awesome place.

My meal came with generous sides of crispy chips and fresh salad, while my husband opted for vegetables. The $29 deal also included the beer and soft drink. We shared a serving of calamari with tartare sauce, which tasted superb. The restaurant has a casual, friendly atmosphere with a charming rustic vibe. Overall, the service was a solid 10/10!

Simple but good quality ingredients, felt like homegrown eggs and homemade relish. Nice staff. Open on a Sunday morning. Modest menu but easily managed to find gluten free variants.
