Food is decent. Service had made a mistake providing 1 of our party an alcoholic drink vs non alcoholic though everyone ordered the exact same drink, different flavours. The drink was also not drank but charged for full- felt they should have owned their mistake.. overall awkward service

Such a great place for happy hour drinks and pizza and a great casual spot on 8th Avenue. Love the matches and postcards that are part of the momento. Just adds a touch of fun. Had Paul as a waiter who was very attentive and thank you to him for the beret

Alex our waiter was fabulous. He was so fabulous we came back two days in a row. These guys run a happy hour and it's a genuine happy hour. They are happy for you to drink as much as possible in that time and no up selling or pushing to spend more. Alex's upbeat and friendly nature and knowledge of the food is exceptional. His choices were spot on. Love their pizzas, beautifully strong and well made cocktails. Love this place. Highly recommended. Very clean and well organised.

This was a great spot for some small bites and drinks. The food was excellent, drinks options plentiful and the service was brilliant too. My wife is a coeliac and they were incredibly knowledgeable on what she could and couldn’t have which was appreciated. Wasn’t the cheapest (we spent $100 for 4 plates and two drinks including a tip) but was worth the money. The only issue was that they had only one waiter serving the whole of the upper floor - she was brilliant but she needed some help!

This place is excellent. Brought my wife here for her birthday dinner. Had the calamari, tomato dip, beet salad, eggplant pizza, and the ravioli. Excellent.
Brad was our server and was excellent. He took good care of us, and made some excellent suggestions.
10/10. I’m coming back for sure. The parking situation is a bit of a drag, but that’s not the restaurants problem

We dropped in for a happy hour experience. Good drinks, very good pizza, I quite enjoyed the pizza. Napoli style. I will also say that the service was exceptional. Eduardo was our server, very friendly and attentive. We will be back.

Last night's service was disappointing, to say the least. From a customer's perspective, it felt like the staff were overwhelmed and disorganized. Our server changed three times, and for a meal over $300, we expected basic standards to be met—like water refills, having cutlery when the food arrived (we had to ask the bartenders), and a simple check-in from the server. When we asked our third server if they were struggling, the response was, ‘It's not too bad tonight,' which only added to the frustration. Based on this experience, we won't be returning.
