The service was lovely as well as the mood. There was a live piano performance with soft lighting making it perfect for a date night. The food was exceptional. Would definitely visit again.

I'm personally biased as I'm well acquainted with the owner, though I continue to bring my work colleagues here because they also enjoy the offerings of 65 Northbourne. Keep doing Read more

Good but staff kept asking how we were far to often. Great that they were friendly and attentive but got to the point if almost being interruptive.

The oysters were the smallest we've ever come across. The seafood pasta dish was very disappointing particularly the scallops being so rubbery as to make them inedible. The staff wRead more

Warm and welcoming staff backed up with great food and inviting atmosphere. Will go back again for sure but maybe share a mains instead of a whole lobster each.

Some of the mains could have been warmer. Ambience spoiled by music too loud for conversation. Nothing wrong with music selection but too loud for small venue. Later in the eveningRead more

Lovely staff. Good food. Lovely Canberra wines. BUT: Insanely loud. Both from patrons and the piano music Long wait time for food as well. Little else to add.

The menu choices were seemingly limitless which was a great problem to have. The food was ready in a reasonable time and was of a high quality. The service was average but acceptable.

Great service, delicious food and great dessert options. It was not too noisy and they had a great selection of local (including CBR area) and non-local wines.
