Accompany a unique cocktail with some European inspired tapas or Japanese sushi, sit back and soak up the best in life.
This place is great for friday night drinks. It mainly attracts a young crowd which is good for young professional to mingle and be jolly. Their drinks can be a tad on the expensive side compared to other places and it is a requirement that guys wear someone with a collar to get in otherwise you will be refused entry. The vibe really lifts from after 10pm onwards the place will go on full party mode with some doof doof rnb music!
Great venue for after work drinks or social gatherings. The venue is mostly geared towards young to middle aged professionals, so drinks are a bit of the pricier side. The location is very nice as it's situated in Melbourne's theatre district. P.S. Guys are expected to wear a shirt to get in!
Came here for Friday night after work drinks with a few colleagues. This place gets quite busy at night and has a mixed atmosphere. There's happy hour, club vibe and also a place to dine if you're feeling hungry. Not too sure about the concept of eating a full main meal in a dark lighting with loud music in the background. They are also offer food at the sushi bar which you can order different variety of sushi hand rolls.
Not bad of a venue to have drinks or organise a birthday or event. The long room is indeed long. The venue is quite spacious and has a really nice setting or theme to it. I was here for a friends birthday not to long ago and it was a Saturday night. Mix crowd and pretty good choice of mix music. Drinks are the average price that is charged like other places. We were in about 10:30pm, there was no line, no entry fee either. It was still early i guess as there weren't as many people inside. By 11:30pm it was getting crowded so was filling up quickly. By the time it was packed it was very hard to move around or get from one end to the other. Mix crowd also mix ages so looks like some people were in their early 20's and some in their 40's. Good night overall.
This is a lovely place for drinks and dinner, or tapas. During the week there is a tapas feast which is reasonably priced. The venue is stylish with a strict dress code. It does get very crowded, busy and noisy. The menu has something for everyone. Try the crab croquettes and the crumbed bocconcini balls. The crispy gnocchi were delicious. Overall, good value and the chic atmosphere makes it a winner.
