Recognised with the 2026 Michelin Bib Gourmand, our talented chefs put their whole heart into every dish they create. The menu celebrates local, fresh and seasonal produce with incredible flavours, modern Louisiana, French, New Zealand, South and Latin American influences and plenty of gluten free, vegan and other dietary options.
