The staff were exceptional with service and delivery of food and beverages. Each plate of food was an explosion of flavours...could go on, no need to as it was amazing.

Honestly delicious. If you want a gorgeous restaurant in the southern highlands then you need to come here. The ambiance alone is a reason to come to this restaurant. I came here with my girlfriends the other night and it was delicious. We shared a starter and then ordered mains. The cocktails were delicious, I was expecting the Autumn Warmer to be more like a Negroni than it was but it was still delicious. They gave us beef carpaccio with truffle Mayo (I believe it was) with garlic chips to start with and I just wanted more, it was delicious! We shared the school prawns and I can only say order them! They’re crispy and yummy and everything you want in school prawns. I had the duck Wellington for dinner, if you want something that’s on the bigger side of the mains I recommend this as I only got 1/3 through it! Delicious, non traditional but very yummy. The gnocchi was yummy along with the beef too! Overall it was a great experience, if it was to lose points somewhere when we first arrived the service was a little lacking but there was only two of them! Aside from that great experience :) will try to return. Please be advised you’ll need to book in advance as it’s sold out most nights it’s open!

OH-MY-GOD... AMAZING! We had the chef's Rogue menu with wine pairing and each of the six courses were incredible! Not only the food was great, the two waiters were the most polite, amiable, funny, smiling people we met in our trip to the Southern Highlands ♥️ Each dish pretty as a picture, beautifully plated, and each wine pairing served with a detailed explanation of why that wine had been selected to complement the dish. The chef went to great lengths to accommodate my chilli intolerance and replaced with other ingredients in each dish (not just removed the chilli, but replaced with other ingredients that provided a little kick without being too aggressive to my stomach) and they did such a great job, replacing it with mustard seeds in one dish and with pickled cauliflower in other... You can tell they actually had fun trying to step up to the challenge and I was so grateful for it! It almost made me feel special, rather than a nuisance (which is the case in most other places)! I could only fault one little thing and that is the fourth course was rather cold, which was a bit of a shame, but everything else was so so perfect that I'm still giving them 5 stars (and we did tip generously as they definitely deserved it). We'll return soon!!! Thank you for a dinner we will remember for years to come!!!

Every time we go here we love it. The food is of the very best quality: interesting and complex flavours, made from great local ingredients and beautifully presented. The atmosphere is always good and René really makes the place feel comfortable and welcoming. It’s not an inexpensive experience but it is worth every $. You will not get such great value in any restaurant I can think of.
