First visit but won't be the last. Food (Barramundi) was outstanding but all servings were small. Garlic bread was a bit ordinary (try the one at the Woden Pide House to see how it should be done). Sevice was a bit slapdash but the staff were charming. Excellent value, especially with a glass of good wine.

I found the portion sizes a bit small - even for $16 tbh...and the variety on the menu was nothing like I recall when I ate at the restaurant for lunch when it was located at Reid. However, I would encourage people to try the restaurant nevertheless as it supports the students with their training - very worthwhile!

I had the barramundi. The fish only came with cauliflower it looked a bit sad on the plate with now colour a green vegetable would have made the plate a bit more appealing. Or an optional side salad

The CIT students provided an excellent dining experience. The 5 course tasting menu was interesting and very flavoursome. The main elements were well prepared (eg beetroot and barramundi). I was also impressed with the additional elements in each dish that elevated the flavours (eg cured apple on the zucchini). The presentation of the dishes was beautiful. The wait staff were also excellent. They were friendly and attentive, and had a good understanding of the dishes and drinks they were serving. Overall it was a great night out.
