We came in earlier than the booking time and quickly got sited in a nice table next to the window. The initial waitress is really patient with us as we take our time with the menu.
The problem start with the food. The steak is a bit overcooked (we order medium rare, and it’s looking like medium).
Secondly, the veggies have no charred nor seasoning. Not sure if they are even on the grill at all.
The mushroom sauce also did not complement the steak at all.
Lastly, one of the waitress that took a photo for us are rushing for some reason and the photo are terrible. (Not a big deal)

We visited your restaurant tonight.
Although we are Japanese and not very confident with English, your staff kindly guided us through the menu, and thanks to that, we were able to enjoy a truly wonderful meal.
The salad in particular was exceptionally delicious.
honestly the best we’ve ever had.
Knowing that we can only eat it when we come back to Tasmania makes us a little sad, but at the same time, it gave us a strong reason to return.
We had to head to the airport, so we couldn’t try the dessert, which we regret a bit, but we’ll definitely challenge it next time.
Thank you again for the amazing experience!!!

Definitely not dressed for the occasion, but what started as a last‑minute drive for chips turned into something completely different.
We stumbled across Rockwall Bar & Grill — and what a blessing that was.
Honey Brown Mushrooms
Garlic roasted mushrooms with onion, capsicum, chickpea and walnut filling
Pasture Raised Tasmanian Steak Tartare
Steak and Guinness Pie
Served on garlic and herb potato mash with red wine and rosemary sauce — honestly the best we’ve ever had
Absolutely delicious Beef Rissoles
Classic recipe made with premium pasture‑raised Tasmanian beef, bacon, broccolini, garlic and herb potato mash, finished with caramelised onion gravy
You know when they say food can embody childhood memories? These mains did exactly that.
And to top it off, the service was amazing.
Best wishes to our lovely young waitress who is sitting her Year 12 exams this week and next.

This is one of the popular restaurants in Hobart. We walked in without reservation at 5:30pm. It’s already fully booked. However, the staff has kindly find a table in front of the restaurant near bar for my family 4 of us. We enjoyed the Tasmania winter set menu very much. This is the best meal we had on our trip in Hobart. Highly recommended this restaurant!

Great experience overall! The food was delicious and the place is amazing. The sides could use a bit of improvement, but everything else was really good.

Dined with 8 others looking forward to our meals.
Unfortunately 1 of our meals – lamb back strap smelt odd – like off meat to the diner. Not the actual problem. But when she highlighted to the wait staff and it was taken back to the kitchen we were confronted by the owner who yelled at the diner that there was nothing wrong with the lamb. That he sold 10 others that day and no one complained. He looked at another diner who had the lamb back strap also the owner commented that it diid look under cooked. He aggressively offered her something else – she asked for Risotto – Butternut pumpkin and sage with parmigiano Reggiano – it came out with balsamic vinegar on top. When the diner asked why it had balsamic vinegar on it he said looked at her and said “are yiu for real” its on the menu- its not .. who would put balsamic vinegar on a rissotto… what a horrible experience to end our Tassie Trip.

Ordered the steak tartare and lobster pate.
Tartare average at best, but the “lobster” pate was a joke. While the bread was served with was soft warm and delicious, the pate was basically butter dotted with an occasional specimen of lobster, far from enough to call it a lobster dish, or for that component to add any flavour and real merit to its name sake.
May as well have been called “frozen pink butter with white specks of excuses to charge a higher price”
Left half of it behind. When the issue was raised with staff, they discredited my complaint as a “labelling issue” and when I asked if they would be happy if it was served to them, the response was at least an honest “probably not”.
They went on to not blink, or act even remotely as you’d expect in this business and charge full price, offering not even the slightest attempt for remedy at the legitimate and obvious dissatisfaction backed with photo evidence and a half consumed plate, nor muster even an attempt at an insincere apology.
Side notes : table only had a broken salt grinder, no pepper – had to get that from other tables close by and staff checked in after the food was ordered or delivered to the table. They were too busy gathering at the kitchen talking to other staff to attend my table or any of the others around me.
I vote – avoid !

Staff were lovely, atmosphere was nice.
Ordered the eye fillet and it was lacking in any form or seasoning and had a dry overdone crust.
Menu said it came with a side of rosemary potatoes but there was no rosemary or seasoning on the potato’s either. Also for the price point I think the 2-3 small baby potatoes is a bit underwhelming.
Partner had fish of the day and her comments were that it was a bit dry and the sauce was bland and the potato rosti was soggy and mushy.
Finished with the crème brûlée for dessert and it was really good.
All in all, if you have any level of skill in the kitchen or access to youtube, save yourself some money and make your own steak, or get something else from the menu maybe.

Over here for the cricket – so this has been the best experience so far! Long way to come for a fish and chips supper but delighted to say it was excellent – as was the sticky date pudding. Ambience topped it off. Staff were quite charming – as were other guests with whom we also had nice conversations. Great food, warm and friendly environment – what more could one need. Oh, perhaps England learning how to bat.

We had an online booking for 8:45pm and informed online that the kitchen wld be open to 10:45pm. When we arrived we felt pressured to order a drink as the male waiter was ‘hovering’ over us. Our group of 3 ordered a pre dinner drink and asked them to come back to order the last persons drink which they did. We then ordered our meals wiv one of the ‘good waiters’ who was very informative of the ‘fish of the day’. We ordered our meals. We asked about desserts and they said we cld order later. As we finished our pre dinner drinks we asked if we cld order wine for our main meal. Our meals came out but no wines … they eventually came half way thru eating our meal. As we received our meals and started to eat a staff member came up to the table and asked us if we were interested in ordering desserts as the kitchen was closing. We all looked at each other shocked as we had only just started our main course! The person who booked the table then said ‘hang on we were told we had the booking to 10:45pm why the rush’. He was able to show the online looking but the waiter said nothing. We were told the kitchen is closing. As we were eating the waiters / waitresses were clearing and setting up tables for the next day around us. I noticed the female waiter looking towards our table to see if we were finished to pick up dirty dishes and glasses. As she did she didn’t bother to ask whether we wld like another drink. When asked she said we cld but we didn’t feel inclined as it was obvious that they didn’t want us hanging around. We were by no means the only ones in the restaurant. We cannot complain about the meals and drinks .. very good quality but the service was below what is acceptable. One of our party in the past was in hospitality and she was shocked by the ‘attitude’, especially of the female staff member who waited on our table. We were recommended to eat at this restaurant by a friend but l don’t think l wld recommend to other friends not b/c of quality of food but service. As a side note, when wanting to use the female rest room there was an issue wiv the toilet and l had to use the males… not that it bothered me but it doesn’t come across well.
