It’s a great place if you want to enjoy Australian specialty. All of dishes we had were really good. They brought out the full flavour of the ingredients. For kangaroo meat, which was the first try for me, it was tender and went really well with the sauce, so tasted delicious. For Tasmanian salmon, it was crisp on the outside, tender and juicy on the inside. Each plating was impressive, so I highly recommend ordering from appetizers to desserts. I also liked the detailed consideration shown in the recommendations for wines that go well with the food. I will visit again next time I come to Melbourne.
