Had lunch there today. Brilliant decor, friendly helpful staff & delicious food. The gnocchi was melt in the mouth and the duck ragu was full of flavour. Will definitely be back & would highly recommend.
Flying Tiger! Another great Newcastle venue. You have to see for yourself the effort that has gone into this building. It is pretty spectacular.
The wine list is excellent, plenty of choice from all our local regions but also includes overseas wines.
Our second visit was only last night with friends, we had a table of six. Drinks at the bar first, get there early the bar is cool, great staff and some very nice craft beer.
Everyone on our table raved about their meals. The venue is great, the food is excellent and the staff are lovely. 5 stars from me.

On par food, unique and delicious cocktails in a super cool setting with friendly staff.
On our quest to experience never before visited Novacastrian restaurants, The Flying Tiger serendipitously became the place for dinner.
The atmosphere is eclectic with a kind of Hawaiian or maybe maybe Polynesian feel. The upstairs restaurant is low lit, sets a nice mood for a date night.
We walked in starving and quickly ordered scallops and croquettes (homemade ketchup was tasty!). Both full of flavour and nice teaser for more to come. Accompanied by a Gold Fashioned cocktail (using choc bitters!), this is the second best old fashioned I've had in Newcastle.
A snack of overpriced fries with a wanky French name that seemed like it was trying to cover up for the fact that the fries were on par with store brand oven chips. Yummy homemade sauce (same as what came with the croquettes) but no seasoning. The only negative of the evening.
Insert Hells Angel (gin) cocktail here. If I was such a huge whiskey fan this may have been my cocktail of the night.
Crispy skin chicken and mussels in a creamy white wine sauce finished us off nicely. Nothing amazing, the chicken was fine, mussels were the best dish of the night. A glass of sparkling from Tasmania, fine bubbles and a light sweetness, a quality wine.
Service was highly attentive and friendly. All food and cocktails came out quick.
Out on a Saturday night @TheFlyingTiger231 and was feeling peckish so got these croquettes: Jamon, Manchego cheese, house made ketchup
Crunchy on the outside, soft gooey rich oozing cheese on the inside. That house made ketchup provided the perfect acidity and sweetness against the rich cheese filling. Yum
Lovely venue with many cool spaces and nice relaxed vibe.
A modest entry opens into a really funky space, great to catch up with friends for a cocktail. It is light and airy with a theatrical decor that transports you to another time, another place.
The menus is really interesting. We tried a sample of small bites and the flavours were amazing. It's only recently opened, so the staff were new, but all very courteous and helpful.
We will be back!!
We went specifically to try the pasta special on a Tuesday night. Both tried the two versions on offer and we were really happy with the quality and innovative ingredients. We had been here previously for the $18 Thursday night special which was really good as well. Meals aren’t massive but at those prices the value is there considering the pasta is not pre cooked and made to order. The mains were also of a quality standard. This is not pub grub at all.
The owner is so friendly and welcoming which is a nice touch.
We will definitely continue to support this innovative Newcastle business.
Beautiful space. Funky and eclectic. There's a plane in the ceiling, the food is delish and the drinks are great. What more could you ask for? As a side note, the staff are all awesome. Love it here.
The best food/drinks/service/venue in Newcastle.
The scallops are AMAZING. Steak was next level. The cocktails were perfect every time. And my god the dessert- unreal.
So Instagram worthy! The venue is incredible with an airplane suspended in the middle of the building.
Thanks for yet another amazing night!
