This
was
my
first
time
here
and
Sydney
in
general.
Stopped
in
for
a
quick
bite
after
the
Sea
Life
Aquarium
because
it
was
the
first
thing
we
stumbled
across.
I
normally
don’t
step
foot
in
a
restaurant
without
doing
research
(side
note:
why
is
Yelp
not
a
thing
in
Australia??!)
but
my
boyfriend,
who
is
the
complete
opposite,
was
starting
to
get
hangry
so
I
had
to
do
what
I
had
to
do.
Boy,
was
I
pleasantly
surprised…

Ambiance/atmosphere:
⭐️
9.5/10
Since
it’s
just
a
hop,
skip,
and
a
jump
away
from
the
water,
we
decided
to
sit
outside
because
it
was
such
a
beautiful
day.
Completely
covered
overhead
and
tables
were
very
clean.
They
also
have
fans
and
heaters
scattered
throughout
the
floor
to
accommodate
whatever
Mother
Nature
decides
to
throw
at
us
that
day.
We
sat
in
front
of
a
small
vertical
herb
garden
with
a
TV
above
it.
It
was
on
that
TV
that
I
discovered
they
offer
cocktail,
pasta,
pizza,
and
even
kids
pizza
making
classes!
Might
just
have
to
take
a
class
in
the
future
when
I
have
more
time.
Only
reason
I
took
half
a
point
off
is
because
it
feels
just
a
tad
cramped.
When
we
came
in,
it
wasn’t
too
busy;
however,
I
could
see
that
if
it
was
busy,
I’d
feel
a
little
claustrophobic.
Not
terribly
bad
but
removing
a
table
here
and
there
would
go
a
long
way.
Then
again,
with
how
great
the
food
is
and
the
amazing
location,
I
can
see
this
place
getting
very
busy.
Would
I
want
to
wait
a
long
time
for
a
table?
No.
Am
I
willing
to
sacrifice
a
little
more
room
to
get
seated
faster?
Yes.

10/10
🗣️
Came
in
at
1:30pm
on
a
Wednesday
and
we
were
greeted
and
seated
in
about
a
minute.
Manuel
(pretty
sure
that
was
his
name)
was
amazing!
It
was
slightly
busy
but
he
really
made
sure
we
were
taken
care
of.
We
mentioned
that
it
was
our
first
time
in
Sydney
and
he
recommended
quite
a
few
things
for
us
to
do
which
was
nice!
Also,
they
have
one
of
those
little
robot
servers
roaming
around.
It
didn’t
come
around
to
our
table
but
it
was
cool
to
see
one
of
those
for
the
first
time!

Food:

Calamari

🗣️
Best
calamari
I’ve
had
in
a
long
time!
It
wasn’t
tough
or
chewy
at
all,
the
batter
was
light/crispy,
and
the
aioli
on
the
side
was
great.
Halfway
through
I
decided
to
squeeze
the
lemon
on
it
and
let’s
just
say
I
wish
I
had
done
that
from
the
beginning.
Chicken
and
Mushroom
Risotto
💰
$34
⭐️
10/10
🗣️
The
menu
describes
it
as,
“the
perfect
combination
of
chicken,
mushrooms
and
cream.”
That
is
also
how
I
would
describe
it.
Perfection.
I’m
usually
hesitant
to
order
risotto
because
it
can
sometimes
be
mushy
but
this
still
had
a
nice
bite
to
it.
Cheesy,
creamy,
chicken
and
mushrooms
in
almost
every
single
bite…
you’re
definitely
getting
your
money’s
worth.

🗣️
We
got
a
bottle.
Not
going
to
lie,
I’m
not
a
drink
aficionado
so
alcohol
is
alcohol
to
me
and
that’s
10/10
always.

Overall
atmosphere,
food
taste/quality,
and
service
were
top
notch.
Needless
to
say,
and
to
quote
the
great
Arnold
Schwarzenegger,
“I’ll
be
back.”
