Most honest three star review I've ever given.
Beer selection was good, however the staff were not very informed about the selection they were offering.
The venue and atmosphere was fantastic, suited to the food perfectly. It was the food that kinda dropped the ball however.
Pork dumplings were very nice, cooked just right.
The spicy seafood was something that we were all excited for but what we got did not get close to the expectations. It would have been barely worth the money at $10 less. Prawns (all 3.5) were cooked ten minutes too long and were harder to shell than a mud crab. Was more or less a plate of squid. And the crime here was the lack of spice which seriously was the one thing that I was expecting. Flavour was a little bit mild too.
Chicken wings were cooked perfect, but thats the only thing done right. Pigeon wings in a kilo of batter with enough dipping sauce for maybe four of the ten on the plate. The batter rendered them flavourless and the sauce was there as a tease.. Actually the pickled veg was good too.
Condements were par for the course.
The other issue I took was the young girl looking after us had no energy and really struggled to understand what she was serving, even the drinks were above her pay grade.
We jumped ship before desert and opted for some icecream from John's down the road.
