    Absolutely blown away by the Wagyu steak at Moo Moo The Wine Bar + Grill. Cooked perfectly, melt-in-your-mouth tender, packed with flavour, and easily one of the best steaks I’ve had in a long time. The marbling was unreal and every bite just melted away. Service was spot on too — attentive without being over the top. Definitely worth every dollar. If you love quality steak, this place is a must

    Australian Good Food Guide did not disappoint. Whenever I’m in new towns I love the AGFG suggestions and this little gem with only 13 hats made my trip. The tasting menu started amazing and ended the same. Lovely fresh sashimi and other seafood mixed with incredible skewers and a final Wagyu steak cooked and seasoned to perfection, great wait staff and a totally enjoyable night. There was a clear dedication to the food and ensuring an incredible night. It was surprisingly busy on a Tuesday evening. Would recommend and will return.
