I would definitely recommend coming here if you're looking for a nice calm ambience. The music and lights are very chic and fitting to the style to the restaurant and I would most definitely come again! The bowl I had was Shouya Ramen and it was absolutely perfect. The noodles were thin to my liking but still very tasty. The broth which I think was miso soup was the perfect ratio of tasteful but not as to take away too much from the main piece

I had high hopes for this restaurant but was truly let down. I made a reservation last week to…read moreenjoy a dinner this past Tuesday at 5pm with my partner. Last Friday they texted me to confirm our reservation. I was very pleased at the time that they did this and was looking forward to our dinner. We had arrived around 445pm and noticed the doors were locked, lights off, and no one inside. We figured it was just because we were a bit early so we waited till 5pm. Still there was no one to be seem. At 503pm I texted the number that I spoke with on Friday to confirm our reservation, yet got no response. At 506pm my partner called the number for the restaurant and a man had answered what sounded like his cell phone. He explained to the man that we were waiting outside and that the reservation was even confirmed. The man was not apologetic at all and insisted we come back at 530pm because that is when they open. We waited till about 515pm and at that point left as we had plans later that evening. Not once did they apologize for their actions or try to justify the experience except for at 527pm when they must have finally arrived and texted us to see if we were coming back and offered an apology. I have never seen such unprofessional service at a restaurant before. Not only did they physically text to confirm the reservation and not show up for it - but they also did not have any justification for their actions. I definitely will not be back and will not be recommending others to come here.

Sea Scallops were melt in your mouth great. Bugs (which I never had before) were awesome & very similar to Lobster! Large prawns cooked & served on a wooden skewer were delightful. Salmon was juicy & flavorful. Cannot say enough about the quality of the seafood & large portions they provided! The potatoes were prepared very similar to scalloped potatoes & broccolini was crisp & not over cooked. They had outside & inside seating to choose from. A very delicious Monteiths Pale Ale from New Zealand on Draft to boot! Cheers Mate Give them a try!

The food is solid and a typical fusion mix of a miso infused pork belly next to a roast beef sirloin with roast vegies. A laksa next to cold cuts of meat and breadrolls... maybe not so much fusion in hindsight, maybe its a bit of two worlds crossed like star crossed lovers... but with some sushi. So essentially multiple asian countries crossed with the typical aussie fair. So really the world is kissing and youre eating, gross but sweet but gross but kind of nice.. getting off topic here. Lets get this right, the food is nothing really awesome but when combined with queenslands only 360 revolving restaurant a la candlelight 26 stories above a la central gold coast broadbeach... the taste is yelping spectacular $62 later a head plus $4.50 for a glass of coke. So recommended but not really for a regular visit. Perfect for romance and walking a full stomach off by the breathtaking beach.

Overall the experience was pretty average although we didn't go hungry between the selection of…read morehighs and lows. The revolving restaurant was a tad disappointing. The main attraction being the view was mostly unseen as the lighting inside was too bright to view the night lights outside. Instead you saw your own reflection when trying to peer out. My recommendation is to go for a day or early evening seating if you want to take in the view. The dessert buffet was the best part of the evening. The worst part, the other patrons. Some patrons had been scooping the oysters from their shells at the buffet station so care had to be taken not to select an empty oyster shell. Searching through the empty oyster shell rubble we managed to find some tasty morsels to return to our table with. The crab was a disaster, stringy dry overcooked crab meat was hardly worthy of the effort involved to get to it. However, the prawns were amazing. The main buffet was a collection of over cooked salmon, tasty veal, chicken, tough chewy steak and tragically over cooked lamb cutlets. The sides were pretty boring - steamed or roasted vegetables. The dessert buffet had a great selection of sugary treats, chilli chocolate pano cotta, pavlova, doughnuts, ice cream, a broad selection of cheeses and fresh fruit to name a few. Ho ho ho hum... Not the highlight of my Christmas vacation. But it wasn't all that bad value for what fare was available.
