A lovely place with a view to enjoy dinner. The dining room over looks Wellington city and has a really nice atmosphere. Despite being sat next to the kitchen the expansive windows still allowed us to enjoy the sunset whilst having dinner. Service was great, waiter was polite and efficient. Drinks came out quickly too. We were really impressed by the menus and had a hard time deciding on mains. We ordered the steak and the beef cheek. I'd say the food was pretty good, but not outstanding. The jus that came with both of our meals had a very subtle flavour and made the dish feel unbalanced. If the sauce was improved the dish would have been much better. For dessert we had the carrot cake and chocolate Mousse. I'd say again the the sauce/ cream etc they used was really bland and if that had been improved the dish would have been awesome, it was just a bit lack luster. Would go back for the view and atmosphere, could be great for an afternoon drink + snack.
We had a last table for 2 booked at 7:30pm on a Friday night. I love the restaurant setting and view (you have a nice view of the city at night from high up through the clear glass door, perfect place for picture lovers!). The food and service are amazing. I love the food presentation.
Such a shame that they sold out Venison just right after we finished ordering.
We started our meal with Buffalo Mozarella and Black Angus Beef. For the main, we got Beef Cheek and Lamb Rump. We finished the night with Chocolate Mousse and Raspberry Brioche.
Overall, highly recommended.
Enjoyed a very pleasant meal here. The dishes were all immaculately presented and the serving sizes generous. In particular the ice cream was enough for two of us. The disappointments were 1. They had run out of duck confit which seemed strange given the size of the restaurant and how duck legs can be stocked up in the fridge and 2. The lamb rump was overcooked and so dry compared with the photos posted online.
