  • "The food was amazing and all the staff were amazing, really genuinely helpful and seemed happy in their work."

Cons:

  • "Some of the veggies weren't the ones advertised with the dish."
  • "My wife took the Messi burger and felt It was a bit basic."
  • "The only let down was the food was average. Burgers were quite flavourless."
  • "The chips were over-seasoned (salty). The mayonnaise was cheap and not nice."
  • "Cocktails are amazing as usual. Sadly the meat in the burger was overcooked."
  • "Although the food was tasty, the portions were very filling and the service was great, the food was expensive."

Customer Service

Pros:

  • "The level of service and friendliness were exceptional, which is often lacking in such larger commercial dining venues."
  • "The service was PERFECTION. They messed up our order at first, but then one of the workers was so generous to help us out."

  • "The service was very fast, and everyone in the staff is very friendly and helpful."

  • "The service from the staff is fantastic, cannot fault the service."
  • "Our waiter Gabriel was awesome."
  • "We were really early so had a wander around the shop and went down dead on 12pm. Service was excellent and attentive, food tasted fresh."

Cons:

  • "They have this weird 'policy' that if you want to sit to have a dessert and a drink, you can only do it at the bar because apparently, the tables are for the main course only."
  • "One of the best hard rocks we’ve been to in terms of food and live show. The only thing is the service wasn’t great. The waiters will ignore(!!) you if you’re not in their area."
  • "The waiter attitude changed once we said we'd be sharing a meal with an additional side."
  • "Service was very slow despite not being crowded but they were friendly."
  • "Service was slow and the food was served with chips and broccoli instead of green beans and mash."
  • "There was a 30-minute wait to be seated, on a weekday."
  • "Service was good, but maybe a bit over the top so nobody would complain about the 'voluntary' service fee (which is automatically added to your bill)."
  • "Our waiter told us a little about the memorabilia they have around the place as well."
