Worst ever salad I've ever seen, rotten lettuce leaves mixed, god bless you could alive after eating it. Worse than the quality of the dish, is the attitude from the staff and manager there, they don't accept any complaint, if you don't like the unfresh food they put on your table, it's your fault. And it's your taste fault, your attitude fault, your choise fault. Anyway, don't expect replace dish or refund, or sorry from them. From the second you stepped into the pub, you deserve what you would get. God bless you.

This place strikes me as being the essence of an Australian pub. TAB in one corner, pokies out the back, a kitchen in the main bar, comfortable seats and no craft beer. I developed a habit last year when I was staying nearby of popping in for an evening drink before going to bed. This time, I had dinner - a delicious scotch fillet with a pile of chips and a fresh salad. The steak was maybe cut a bit thin, so not quite at the medium rare I was hoping for.

The worst experience of being food-served.
The chef is really rude, they have zero-level customer service and courtesy which is not acceptable. Going there is equal to wasting your money.

There for a bistro meal last Tuesday 19 Oct 2012. I had the Tuesday night special curry - I think is was called lamb and Spinach. Or Saag Gosht. It was subtle and complex and delicious. I think I found a green cardamon pod in it - joy, a real curry. Every bit as good as curries I have had in Tooting! My friend had the famous lamb cutlets. He enjoyed his selection every bit. [The lunchtime special - Moroccan lamb cutlets are also just amazing.]
Then the really dazzling bit - a great big table next to us had 13 different dishes served, together, to those diners. All warm and enjoyed by those dinners.
One man in the kitchen managing all this - I think he is called Ricky.
Utterly beyond belief!

The manager Simon was super rude to me and my wife, to the point that he made her cry. Overall very bad experience. The worst pub experience ever…. Never come here!!

The food is delicious and filling. Very clean kitchen. The bar staff are friendly and generous. If you're struggling to find a decent meal in Sydney, this is your spot.

Stopped in for a drink at their bar and had amazing service and sat out a rain storm. Very centrally located and nice staff!

Stopped by for the $20 rump steak, ordered medium rare and it was cooked more medium well. The peppercorn sauce tasted like it was made with instant gravy mix, it was disappointing

Out of the pubs on this square Id say this is the best for out of towners who want a quiet meal and a drink. Coca cola on tap which is great

Just review for the bar downstairs, great staff, decent selection of drinks. Few chairs for outdoor seating... Right opposite central station, wouldn't be a bad choice for accommodation near the central station

I just stop by for a beer and food.
Simple pub with simple pub food. The quality of the food is not so good.
I wish the chef 👩🍳 could smile and be a bit friendly. Please try to use fresh food , especially seafood. Thanks

I am writing to express my deep disappointment with the food and the chef during my recent visit to the restaurant.
First, I was extremely disappointed with the quality of the food.
Secondly, the attitude of the chef was extremely disappointing. The chef was defensive and refused to take any responsibility for the poor quality of the dish. This lack of professionalism and customer service was unacceptable.
Overall, my dining experience at this restaurant was extremely disappointing, and I feel that I wasted my time and money.

I am disappointed by their cook in their bistro. I noticed he simply used his palm to wipe over the top of the salt shaker dispenser after asking for chicken salt. Yuck! He also burnt parts of my steak and I'm sure I didn't say "over done" but "medium well". My mind started to think that he may have done something else unhygienic during his food prep making my order. I won't eat there again if I ever end up going back in there in future unless it's a different chef of course. I'm very sure I was not rude towards him. But friendly.

Have been here twice and have found the atmosphere great. Good priced meals and drinks right by Central Station in George St. 10/10.

Great location (walking distance) excellent food (Indian Lamb Curry) well priced, appealingly presented and delicious dish, slightly spicy with sufficient curry flavoured sauce. Wine was tasty. Service was efficient. Staff was friendly and efficient. Great for tourist or group catch up.

Good delicious food (when I finally got it), staff at the bar friendly, sport on TV's throughout the venue all ruined by the extremely rude chef who basically refused to take my order. Just because I'm not a local apparently I'm not worthy of eating at your hotel? Why I didn't walk out on the spot I'll never know.

DINE IN EXPERIENCE ONLY
Best value pub grub we have had in years. Hot, Quick and Filling. Went back the second night just to try another meal. Great. Mickey the chef was friendly and good at what he does. We will return next trip to Sydney.

Came passed the pub and as I am a football fan asked if the owner is a supporter. Apparently there used to be a red a blue scarf behind the bar,so yes the old owner was a fan .

A wonderful place to be! One little thing reveals the whole woeld-- my favourite lemon lime bitters is done properly here, which I haven't seen for the whole month exploring bars nearly every night in City!!
