    I found the food disappointing - entree was supermarket dry biscuits on a little dip. The main was a boullaibaisse - in a small bowl accompanied by a couple of slices of rye bread. All in all overpriced, uninspired and meagre.

    Place was lovely and hostess was lovely too! Had the $50 set menu, was overall nice but the entree was very small and a little disappointing. The dessert took a while to come out as well. Apart from this, great time!

    The atmosphere was cozy, food was delicious and service was friendly and respectful. We were a group of 7 and they catered to all our needs and requests. The menu for dinner was 3 courses and very reasonably priced. Highly recommend it

    I can’t believe that this place isn’t full every night. A three course meal for $50 with the excellent quality that I received is an absolute tear. If I had the same meal at Bistro Moncur, it would’ve cost me $100 minimum. What a secret star I have found.!

    Important Update:

    Quandoo is closing down. This is a planned, phased process and our platform remains available until 30 September 2026.

    This restaurant never disappoints. I love the tastefully decorated cosy interior that always feels so welcoming. I loved my seafood stew and my husband’s steak frites was beautifully cooked. We return time and time again and it’s always a pleasure.

    Not sure whether it was the owner who looked after us but he was friendly and very engaging. The food was absolutely amazing. The bouillabaisse was delicious. Great broth! A good selection of wine and a nice Mauritian beer. We will definitely go back.

    Limited menu options. I chose the seafood stew, when it arrived it was a very small portion - 2 bits of fish and 2 mussels...and the rest was slices of potato...for $36! When i questioned this, the response was far from satisfactory. We won't be going there again.
