Reviews
"In the beginning a polite young man named Rob welcomed me I already felt comfortable as he was very energetic and nice! Also a very nice lady named Alyssa served me. And she was very polite and energetic. I felt very comfortable. She has really good customer service skills and made sure everyone was ok with their meals and checked up on everyone.The food on the other hand was very well cooked. I’ve never had such an amazing chicken schnitzel! Overall the service here was amazing! Would recommend 100% to anyone and everyone!"
"The best (and only?) place to enjoy a plant based feast up on the range. Exceptional assortment of Vegan meals and a very accommodating staff. I will return!"
"We ordered the cheese burger and birds nest rosti. The burger was good, but chips was just ok, can be more crispy. The portion of the rosti was too small - it wouldn’t be enough if you’re hungry. Staffs were attentive, but food was on the pricey side."
"We absolutely loved the look and feel of this place. Very warm, inviting atmosphere specially on a summer morning sitting at the back deck close to the greenery. Food was good too, but a bit on the expensive side. We were there for brunch and ordered a big breakfast and a vegetarian medley and some coffee which costed over $80. Scrambled tofu on the toasted sourdough was nice but the flavours were a little bit overpowering. The potato rosti in the big breakfast was also good but was a bit hard. Resturant was very busy, make sure to make a reservation and note there is a surcharge on Saturday. Finally the staff was great , smiling and helpful. I give 5 stars for the restaurant and 4 for the Food. Highly recommended to try."
