This restaurant was perfect! The atmosphere, the waitstaff (especially Ugo), and the quality of the food were all amazing. Thank you for making our business trip so memorable. Among the appetizers, I highly recommend the bruschetta cheese dish with fresh anchovies!

Friendly service, we were lucky to get a seat inside as this place is popular! We tried to order from the QR code on the table but found that quite challenging - we could add the food but couldn’t complete the transaction. Easily fixed by ordering at the counter. We had bacon and eggs, scrambled and poached. Big call, but would say they were both the best cooked eggs we’ve ever had. The chef knows what they are doing! To have the scrambled in ribbons is how they should be, but so hard to find! And the poached yolks were runny but with the white cooked (no clear runny stuff) The bacon was cooked perfectly, easy to cut but not too crispy, the toast not too hard and the hash browns had just the right crunch and seasoning. Iced lattes were spot on. This will be our new go to place, can’t fault it. Highly Recommend :)

Absolutely amazing, the staff are friendly, great service and the food was plated beautifully and amazing flavors. Highly recommend, we have been for lunch and tonight we had dinner. We enjoyed it so much we have booked Friday to have dinner again on our last night before heading home on Saturday. Ugo was very knowledgeable about the menu and passionate about his job, he has such a great vibe to him.

The chilli crab omelette was so nice, the sauce was delish and the coriander garnish and fresh lime juice made it perfect! Long black coffee was nice, was a bit too strong for me for breakfast but would go very well with sweets i reckon. Seen this place so many times packed on weekends but this time we were there early so luckily we could get a seat.
