I have been to the Mt Lawley location plenty of times but it was my first experience in Fremantle. Had a great night, the first lot of balls that were cold but luckily the wine and following food made up for it. Great price and atmosphere was awesome. Would also like to compliment your staff who had big smiles on their faces all night and did a fantastic job.

Food was average at best. Most of the meatballs came out luke warm or cold. Chose the "All You Can Eat" option and waited at LEAST ten to fifteen minutes between plates of food coming out. Waiting 15 minutes for three meatballs at a time is ridiculous.

Good service, good food but the menu and amount of meatballs you get is different to what it says online! Lemon cheesecake and espresso martinis were fab!

Great service, friendly waitress explained how the $39 Sunday night deal worked. Plenty of tasty meatballs delivered to our table. Loved the variety. Only letdown for the nigh was the Reece's chocolate peanut butter cannoli for dessert - it was served really cold straight out of fridge and was rock hard!! Sorbet was yum tho!! Would return!!

Some of the meatballs were cold and my friend had a peanut allergy which the resterant was not very helpful with, they said they would not put peanuts in the plates but the plates were covered in peanuts

Excellent as always! Though we were limited in time as the table was booked again for later in the evening, service was friendly and the atmosphere was great! They had several gluten free options which change every night, and staff knew all about it - very happy :)

I was soooo disappointed. I was really looking forward to it after all the reviews I read. Probably should be renamed the Croquette bar! Everything was deep fried and crumbed! 😩

Food was excellent, very busy night when we arrived. Service was pretty good but food took a while to come out. Highly recommend the Oreo dessert, worth the wait

Restaurant was nice. Main meal seemed small but so mouth watering. Next time I'll get a massive platter to share to try all balls. Little slow on the drink service.

Staff were very rude and only got a meatball and a half every 25mins wouldn't say it was all you could eat, everyone was still hungry and they should let you know how long you have to sit to get one of each of the 6 balls.

Terrible service. Waited 45 minutes and hadn't even had drinks delivered to our table. Ended up walking out and going somewhere else. The staff told us they were struggling with staffing. 2 girls on the floor and 1 bar man. Very frustrating.

The overall experience was really good. We did the all you can eat which was definitely a mistake and we had to end the round before the second round occurred. We didn't have to wait long before each course was served and the food was definitely worth the money. They have a lot of deals and special for each day which is also good. The drinks and deserts are also amazing. If only we had more room to finish. I just wonder about the food wastage generated particularly with the all you can eat.

Service got quite slow as it got busier and parts of some dishes were stale and seemed like they were pre-prepared to early. Bar chairs aren't very comfortable. If sat outside you share a bench table with strangers and can be awkward.

All you can eat special for $39, including drink and dessert is well worth it! The deep fried Oreos are super yummy and the lemoncello sorbet is a nice refreshing finish.

Great service slightly disorganized. They also do not make it clear when booking that you only have the table for a set amount of time before its booked for the next customer s. Should fix door to toilet always banging always open very draughty However food and drinks excellent although the mains are slightly over priced

I thought the meatballs were excellent. It would be nice to have a platter of various different kinds instead of the all you can eat. There were 4 of us and the meatballs came out too slowly in between courses and by the time we got to the end it was 3 hours later.... We would have been much happier with a selection platter.

Restaurant was big and spacious, good atmosphere. Waitress wanted to take our orders with in 5 mins and when we asked for another 5 she took quite a while to come back. Food took a little while to come out but we were all quite hungry. Took about an hour between us arriving and receiving our food. Food was amazing though the wait could have been less

The food was really tasty and service was good. Cocktail was also delicious. I am looking forward to returning when the full menu is up possibly this week as it was still only limited as they had only just been open a week or two. It is a slick classy place which is ideal for get together with friends.

Delicious meatballs and waffle chips and a great price too as we had the $12 lunch special! I washed the meatballs down with a glass of bubbles and my husband enjoyed his favourite espresso martini. We will be back again soon.
