Attentive, friendly staff will ensure that during these difficult and challenging times, your health will not be compromised. Delish, mouth watering, crispy based pizza's and good vino selection...

Lachie is the standard by which all hospitality professionals should set themselves. Good old fashioned service and friendliness makes me enjoy the environment. Food and drinks were great too.

First time and took a group pf teens, food came out superfast thought staggered, was ok and thought a great new place to go... however ordered dessert and waited 30 minutes and managed to grab a floor staff who said sorry its one minute away and then 10 minutes later still nothing by then everyone had had enough and no-one could still explain what was going on, waste of time and disappointing, its not hard guys and no one needs their Saturdays nights wasted sitting around for nothing

Look let me make this clear. This isnt necessarily a bad restaurant. Sure the parma is $27, a bit steep for some crumbed chicken, ham, sauce and cheese. $26 for a Caesar salad with chicken. You get the idea. Also the 30c-ish surcharge for any non-cash purchase is a bit how-ya-going. We live in a post-covid cashless society. Arent we past this yet? Anyway half our tables food came out, followed by the other half of the tables a solid 30mins later. None of these are particularly bad on their own. But put it all together and you know youve got the 2-star review
