    Perfection! From the reservation team accommodating a request, to the food and service on the night - everything was amazing and we had the best night. Certainly the best banquet menu I’ve had in Sydney as part of a larger group and could not have asked for better service.

    Excellent venue for pre-theatre dinner. Great to have an option at Roslyn Packer Theatre again. Staff were very attentive and welcoming. Menu is diverse and interesting with excellent options for both light, sharing and individual mains. Our food choices were delicious and excellent value. We will be back.
