Thoroughly enjoyed our meal here. We had the mushroom tart (yum as!), the fish with sides (the strawberry sauce was unexpectedly tasty) and the pav (cant go wrong) Simone was a great waiter and was very attentive. Would recommend this place for a special night out in cairns.

Had the most amazing vegan meal. Very inventive and very delicious. The dessert was equally divine. Nice to see a chef whom caters to vegans outside the usual standard boring meal of salads, crumbed eggplant. Definitely worth a visit if you thrive on plant based
