Service

This place has a lovely ambiance with fresh flowers and greenery. The food is not only visually appealing but also incredibly tasty, especially the prawn cake and the burnt basque cake!

We went there to celebrate good news, and the broth was so good! The meat was fresh, and the atmosphere was perfect for a gathering. Highly recommend trying the taro dessert!

Every dish we tried was packed with genuine Italian flavours, from the wagyu carpaccio right through to the squid ink pasta.

This restaurant is a gem in the CBD! The atmosphere is lively and the food is perfect for sharing. I highly recommend the tofu dish and fried rice; both were delicious!

The vibe is cosy and spot on for a date night or catching up with mates, with dishes that are both beautifully plated and packed with flavour.

The signature menu is absolutely top-notch, with standout dishes like the Loddon Estate duck and perfectly cooked scallops.

25 Jul 23. Dined with my partner for an early dinner at 5pm before going to a theatre show. We ordered Lamb Rogan Josh ($27.90), Saag Chicken ($25.90), a serve of steamed rice ($4) and a serve of garlic roti ($5) and two kingfisher beers ($19).Service was very friendly and we didn&#39;t have to wait very long for our meals. Everything was delicious.

This was the second time back at 3rd wave and did not disappoint. The experience (food, service) being fantastic - will be back with our group again -  and I suspect by the positive feedback I have received from those with me at the time and by word of mouth, our group will be bigger!

It would be hard to upstage the very eclectic decor, but the menu range and the food quality manage to do so.  Furthermore, service is very friendly and efficient.  In all, an outstanding restaurant.
