    The Potting Shed new menu is simple, yet the dishes were divine. It caters for all dietary requirements. My colleagues and I absolutely enjoyed the atmosphere, service and especially the food we ordered all cooked to perfection. Not overpriced and well worth it.

    Our second visit to Maiz was every bit as good as the first. We opted for the fixed menu this time and it was uniformly delicious from start to finish. I might say my favourites were the 2 dishes made from corn—soup to begin and ice block (yes! Sweet corn ice block) were both stunningly delicious! The ice block totally original and unexpected! Loved even the hibiscus and mescal shot to start the dinner. Service was just the right amount of attentive and leave you to your eating! Terrific value too. I’ve already booked our next dinner!

    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.

    The food was excellent as was the service and staff. Prices are getting up there so it will become a special treat rather than a regular outing.
