The pasta in both dishes we had was the best we have ever had in Australia. The Tiramasu was also delicious. We sat in out outdoor area on a night the trains weren't running so there was a lot of buses going by. On a normal night you wouldn't notice this as much, but that didn't spoil our night because the food is so good. I'll definately be back.

Lovely restaurant. Food is delicious albeit large servings. Staff are absolutely wonderful and, as usual, the Big Fella drops in and says hello. Excellent value for money.
