Came here for Sunday brunch with a 1 PM resso for four people. It’s located inside the lobby of a hotel. It’s an Australian brunch spot, so some of the menu items have an Aussie twist to it, but you still also have some of your regular brunch items. I wanted to try the kangaroo skewers but I knew I was alone in this, so I ended up getting the Sausage Rolls (thai spiced pork mince, puff pastry, sweet chili sauce) and a side of Chicken Salt Fries. The sausage rolls were good but I guess they’re on the “for the table” section for a reason. After a few, it gets to be a bit much. I was deciding between the sausage rolls and the Crispy Chicken Sando. After trying a bite of my friend’s chicken sando, I immediately regretted not getting it. The fries were good – they’re battered fries, which I love.
I saw a few tables that had an espresso martini flight, which looked cool. Will have to come back next time for that, the chicken sando, and someone who is willing to split the kangaroo skewers with me.

Wow! Wasn’t expecting to love it this much. This place was close to my hotel and my boyfriend and I just wanted a quick brunch spot but u was pleasantly surprised. Staff was super nice and I cannot remember the name of my waiter but he was very efficient and nice as well. Food was excellent and I feel the price was good especially given the area we were in where everything is usually super overpriced. Love it here and would go back anytime!

We had been meaning to try this spot for a while and like that it a quiet respite in midtown. The high ceiling gives the restaurant a very airy quality. There is something for everyone on the menu I think whether vegetarian or not, drinking cocktails/beer/wine or coffee and tea, and a mix of food options from salads to sandwiches to pasta. I like some of the Australian touches like half the wines are from Australia, options Tim Tam add-on, and kangaroo skewers but the restaurant was out of kangaroo when we went. While a lot of places in midtown try to move you quickly, service here is slower and possibly nicer for catching up with friends. Food is ok. We ordered our steak frites medium rare and it came practically well done. The OG burger had bacon that was so hard we had to leave bits of it on the plate and saw others left it too. I would probably try this place for brunch and hope the food is cooked a little better and not out of things.

Update: We decided to return to try more of the menu. Unfortunately, our second visit wasn’t as successful as the first. The breakfast burrito was enjoyable, but the fried chicken sandwich fell short—the bun was dry.
I wish the pudding came with more sauce.
Really generous portions for a reasonable price. The cheesecake waffle was perfectly mild, with just the right amount of sweetness.
Everything was just amazing—definitely worth trying!

The food, cocktails and friendly service were great. We came in for a late lunch, to try their expresso martini flights and their Australian food. Everything was delicious. It happened to be Happy Hour from 3-6 so we ordered some appetizers to share along with unique martini flights. So good!

We came here for brunch and ordered the smashed avocado toast and kimchi sambal scramble — both were really good and flavorful. The food was definitely the highlight. Service could use a little improvement, and the location was a bit confusing since it’s at the entrance of a hotel. The atmosphere wasn’t something we liked

We had brunch here over the weekend and were very satisfied with the entire experience. Even though we didn’t have a reservation, the hostess efficiently found us a table. Our server—a very cool guy from New Zealand—deserves a shout-out.
The vibe was great and the dishes were excellent. We shared the kimchi scramble and the pork hash. My girlfriend preferred the pork hash, while I loved the kimchi scramble—it was bursting with flavor. Portions are generous, so you probably don’t need dessert, but we couldn’t resist. We ordered the strawberry apple waffle and didn’t regret it at all—it was outstanding.
Highly recommend this spot, and we can’t wait for the Brooklyn location to open.

What a great breakfast! I ordered the breakfast sandwich and I was a little skeptical because I had a hash brown potatoes on the sandwich, but it was absolutely outstanding. Much better than what I anticipated.
My wife had the avocado toast and she very much Enjoyed that. Service was very attentive and punctual.

The espresso martini tower was great, and so was the kangaroo and truffle fries. I was disappointed by the bread on the avocado toast and all the dishes felt like they needed some salt. Service was really lacking when we went. We weren’t greeted for a while and it took forever to get our drinks (plain coffee, soda, water). Apps came out at the same time as the meal. I’d love to try this place again for dinner or when they’re better staffed.

My friends and I loved having dinner here. The staff was so attentive and helpful when it came to explaining some of the menu options which are Australian dishes we’ve never heard of. They even have kangaroo!
The food was fresh and they had a great drink options for affordable prices.
