    Great meal and value! We ordered 2-4 plates to satisfy for 2 people. Favourite dish was the warm cow's milk cheese and truffle honeycomb. The only downside is that the restaurant is too generous with bread portions, and we felt it was a waste as we could see many diners also left excess bread.

    As a regular at Born I am always impressed by the level of service. Staff very polite, engaging and service standards are very high. Roddy behind the bar and Daniella looked after our table made the long lunch highly enjoyable. Food great - but hope they bring back the grilled garlic prawns soon!

    A long time favourite, but my first visit for a year, and it reminded me why I have always enjoyed it. Great food for a casual evening - and an endless wine list. I am putting it right back at the top of my choice for a memorable meal location

    The staff were knowledgeable and friendly and gave great service, answering any questions we had. The food arrived relatively quickly and was delicious. The waiter did try and push us to the set menus which were very expensive however we decided to go with individual choices. The food is quite expensive however comparable to other restaurants in this tourist precinct. I imagine that their rent isn't cheap in this location which contributes to the cost. On the whole it was a really enjoyable evening meal with friends who were visiting from Interstate. Would come again.

    Excellent meal and great service. Sitting outside meant the ambience wasn't perfect but still very pleasant. The wines can be on the expensive side but we gave a price range and had an excellent bottle. Definitely recommended.

    The service provided was excellent. We informed the wait staff we had to be out for a show within an hour. We had two courses and and 2 glasses of wine and were out in 50 mins. The food was very good. The only draw back was it was so dark we had to use our phone torches to read the menu.

    Hi BORN by Tapavino, Hope you are well, The food was great I enjoy most of the dishes. The was one problem. When we entered the restaurant the waiter was helpful and help explain the menu to us. From around 9pm until 9:22pm (as I checked the time on my phone after the time she came to us). When we were at the end of our meals the same waiter came to our table maybe around 4 times to ask us if we had finish and we still had food on few of plates. I just felt like we were getting rush out the door and it made our time towards to end uncomfortable as I feel we didn’t enjoy the experience as much. Especially when your restaurant closes at 10pm? Overall the food was nice. But just last part of the night was not so nice due to this. Thank you

    Amazing, amazing, amazing! I went there with 6 of my friends for my birthday and got the bottomless brunch for the table. The food was great! A good mix of everything to try and we were full by dessert. The wines and beers kept coming! Our glasses weren't even empty and they kept refilling. The service was amazing..lovely friendly staff. We left there very full and very tipsy! Right by the water with a great view and ambience. Would highly recommend and go there again!!
