Humbolt squid plate was incredible! All the flavour. Perfectly seared. And the Mezzi Rigatoni - so flavourful. Simple dishes are the hardest to do, and this one excelled.

This was our second visit to Major Tom! We absolutely love it. The food is amazing! The service is great! And the value for your dollar is amazing. We will be regular customers. The views are outstanding. The food came out very quickly, and very well presented. I absolutely love the shrimp and crab rolls and the potato donuts. Today we tried the sweet potato salad and the roasted beet salad and they were amazing!

This wasn't our first visit to Barbarella's and it won't be the last. I love this restaurant! I love the feeling of being here, every dish we have tried is delicious and the service is always top notch. Our waiter Christian took such great care of us and provided us the most excellent experience. If you haven't already been here please don't wait too long, it will be a night out you won't forget.

We really enjoyed our time at Pigeonhole Downtown. The staff were all so helpful and seemed happy to be there tbh. The food was all done nicely, while it’s not reinventing the eating experience, everything was very tasty. We were there for happy hour, which was an absolute deal! Will be back for sure and to try the mains.
