“Wow! I came here for brunch and was super happy with this choice. Food is amazing and service is kind and nice (though they kindly "invite you" to the exit after one hour and a half there lol). But I understand it. I came here with my girlfriend and she has celiac, so I can reccommend it also for who has gluten free requirements. I had the burger bun and it was AMAZING, as well as the avocado toast. I would definitely come back. First time I tried kangaroo meat and was positively surprised. Also, I found it out later, but this is the same management as Hole in the Wall, which I also reccommend.”
“Stopped in for a bit to eat before getting a tattoo across the street. Ordered the breakfast roll and kangaroo tucker. The breakfast roll was good, I beleive the sauce is a version of spicy mayo/ketchup. The kangaroo tucker was also very good, I would have liked a little more pickled onions to offset the herb tahini but that's just a personal preference (i love pickled onions). The host and waitress were great, very attentative.”
“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.”
“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.”
“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!”
