Service: I just want to say that I'm so happy with the service. It was a total mistake by my brother to book the table for us outside, which I was not aware of until I arrived at the restaurant. The only table that was not booked was the table was in an outdoor area with open space and strong winds so we had to change location as it was not enjoyable for a family dinner ages ranging from 18-80, my grandmother! Two of our guests were sick with a flu also and it was imperative to keep them happy and warm. The staff went above and beyond to ensure our comfort! One thing I love about this restaurant was ten blankets (standard at this place) and heaters did the trick on top of that the staff found us a corner location of the outdoor section away from the wind. So thank you. ✨ Food: Amazingly tasty and good quality meat! The wait time is not long as we were there in a group of 7 and everything was served beautifully on time and together! Loved the absolute perfection that the steak was made... literally nothing bad to say. Note: we are super picky with our steak. Can easily say one of the best places for steak in PERTH. Recommended by 7/7! Even the ones that were elderly and unable to chew the steak, but rated it perfect ! Although small portion but very filling. 👌🏽 Love this place and the service they provided us. We had one waitress allocated to our table and she did absolutely beautiful with our family's high demand . It was mum's bday so she got spoilt with a bday cake that was well deserved and too kind of the kitchen to provide to my mum for her as a birthday gift. Thank you. It really was a memorable night and everything was just beautiful. Will return again !! 10/10 ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Service ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Food ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Atmosphere

One of our favourite steak places, as usual top notch quality and service from their stuff. It’s usually hard to get a booking even for a weekdays to be honest. We ordered the following: - Calamari (cooked perfectly so tender and fresh plus the sauce really compliments the squid! I guess that’s their in house sweet and chili sauce) - Honey Glazed Pork Belly Skewer (each pork slice were perfectly coated by honey, pork itself was really tender at the same time there’s a bit crispiness into it. For us it will be nice if it will have a sauce on the side that will balance the sweetness and fat of the pork but overall a decent dish) - Creamy Mash (it’s very smooth and creamy, easily one of the best smashed potato we had for a a restaurant) - T-Bone Steak with Peppercorn Sauce and Confit Garlic Butter (steak cooked into perfection medium rare! So tender yet not dry because of the fat that came from the steak itself plus perfect combination of our favourite steak sauce peppercorn, we tried their confit garlic butter surprisingly it was good it’s like a cream cheese texture lol. It compliments majority of our dishes which make it a very wise decision to order 😂) Highly recommendable for your date nights to impress your significant other! But I suggest to book in advance if you want to dine in, I don’t think they do walk-ins specially on peak days and times. One of our go to place for special occasions. *Their desserts were awesome as well!

We tried the Express Lunch menu at this nicely decked out modern steak house. For entrees we had the Calamari with its thick tender slices of calamari; Crispy Wings that were lightly dusted and fried, overall OK but otherwise a bit average; and the Wood Smoked Mozzarella that was a nice thick slab of cheese, melted into cheesy goodness throughout. For mains we had the Barramundi that was lightly coated and fried and would be OK but we thought the taste was a bit strange that may have been the interaction of the fish with the light curry flavoured sauce; the Slow-Braised Beef Skewer which was not as tender as you would expect from being slow braised, and was also quite dry; and the Chicken Thigh Skewer that was our stand-out main which was comparatively moist and tender with a good basting flavour. For dessert we tried both the Dark Chocolate Tart that was a deliciously rich, decadent and moreish tart, and the Mango and Raspberry Sorbet that was nice enough but seemed a bit light on the fruit flavours. Overall dishes were a bit hit and miss for us in this trendy restaurant, but nonetheless a great meal for the price on the Express Lunch menu. Just note that if you're seated on the ground floor you may get some gusts of cold air on colder days, and maybe heat in summer. Service is good, but some of the staff were short of great for the type of establishment. Bring cash to avoid the card surcharge.

Beers too expensive with $16 a pint being the cheapest. We paid $90 for the set menu and they had the nerve to charge us extra for a small bowl of gravy / jus. The waiter offered it to us as though it was included in the set menu but he didn't tell us it was an extra cost. $6 for gravy seems a bit expensive also when you're already paying $90 for the set menu. The duck sausage roll was not crispy, the pastry was closer to raw than cooked in some parts. It was saved by the fact the flavours were good and well balanced with the sweet sauce and sour pickles. The rump skewer we ordered medium rare but half the pieces on the skewer were well done while the other half were medium rare. It was nicely browned and taste was acceptable but not amazing. The sides were reasonable but again nothing wow'd me. The S'more was good but I noticed that others at the table had their ice cream melting into a giant puddle whereas mine was only just starting to melt. Need more dessert options because I didn't want either choice. In general the food tasted good but was not amazing. Overall if you want to charge these high prices for everything then everything needs to be absolutely perfect, rather than "good enough". I walked away with $141 bill for 1 person for lunch. The atmosphere was good. Service could have been 5 star if they hadn't neglected to tell us gravy/jus was an extra cost.

My wife and I had a delightful evening at this restaurant in Perth, courtesy of a Red Balloon experience gifted by friends. The atmosphere was warm and inviting, and as we were seated, we couldn't help but admire the delicious-looking dishes being served to other tables. Our experience included a set menu with a cocktail and three small share plates: cheesy garlic bread, tacos, and chicken wings. The food was fantastic, flavorful, and well-prepared. While the menu was fixed, the staff was attentive in asking about any dietary restrictions, which was appreciated. The included cocktail was a Negroni, which we found interesting, though not quite to our taste. When I asked if my wife could swap hers for a different drink, the staff was more than accommodating and offered her choice of a new cocktail. However, there was a bit of a mix-up as her drink didn't arrive until after we had finished our meal. Despite this, the attentive service, including frequent water top-ups and check-ins on our meal, made the evening enjoyable. Overall, it was a lovely experience with minor service hiccups, but the staff's willingness to go above and beyond to make sure we were satisfied made up for it. We would recommend this restaurant and would love to visit again.

Food was SPECTACULAR!!! absolutely delicious food and hands down the best margarita I have ever had. However the majority of the wait staff put in a lackluster effort unless they are converting with one another. We weren't given a jug of water when shown to our table, when we requested one we waited for what felt like forever to be bought a 600ml bottle of water that we were charged $10 for, being that there were 4 adults and 2 children at the table it seems obvious that was not adequate, we again requested a JUG of water, we watched the waiter walk right past them, to do I'm not sure what, it was sometime before we received our water. The decor was lovely however they seem to have packed in as many tables as possible it felt over crowded, They have clearly chosen to sacrifice the atmosphere and comfort of their patrons for the sake of profit. Considering the prices on the menu, you'd think they could afford a few less tables and waiters staff that are more personable and engaged. With the exception of Anita who we had to request despite her not being a waiter she shone the rest. She gets five stars.
