About us

Twenty-eight years of the same fire

Since 1998

Welcome

We opened with six tables and one grill. Most of that is still true: the room is bigger, but everything still comes off the same fire, and the menu is still written the morning it is served.

Produce comes from growers we have used for years. What they have decided is ready is what you will find on the menu that week.

What people say

“The lamb came off the fire with a crust I have not stopped thinking about. We booked again before we left.”

Dana R.

“Somewhere you can hear the person across the table, with food that deserves the quiet.”

Peter M.

“Our whole party was fed beautifully, including two vegetarians and a coeliac, without any fuss.”

Amara N.

Wine nights

Every last Thursday: six glasses, six growers, one long table. $55 a head, and we cook to match whatever is being poured.
