My sister and I went to the pasta class tonight and we really enjoyed it! Learning to make the pasta was so fun as well as being able to try a bunch of different ones too. We left full and happy and had leftovers to take home too. We want to thank Kate and Nat for the best experience, you were both so lovely and accommodating.

Great dining and pasta making experience! We went for a pasta class and had a blast. It was fun, entertaining, the food was great and staff are super friendly!
We dined, for the first time, at your Botany Restaurant Saturday evening. It was a marvelous experience! We had the lamb salad and the beef cheek..they were perfect, especially the beef cheek. Both simple dishes but perfectly prepared and presented and generous in serving size ..congratulations to the kitchen staff and to the chef. Your choice of wines...well pitched...Barossa Valley Ink Sarah was delicious. Your front of house staff were welcoming and happy to provide that extra level of service when were initially seated under a chilly air conditioning vent and we asked if we could be seated at another table. The problem was cheerfully and immediately fixed...thank you! Such a young team of waiting staff! Every one of them were cheerful, engaged and seemed delighted to be of service. Also..they were very upbeat in what seemed to be a very happy sense of camaraderie between them all.Finally...Kiwis are not great tippers because we are of the belief that the hospitality business should always pay their staff fairly relative to their experience, individual skills and their overall performance and menu prices need to be high enough to support this concept. The business owner is responsible for hiring staff who accept that high expectations will be had of them. However, your "Loved Your Waiter" idea is a superb way in which customers can ensure that high performing staff can receive a little more recognition for going the extra mile and if you want to slightly raise menu prices to support this initiative then I suggest you give it a go.....I would be happy to pay a little extra on the menu price for that CONSISTENTLY high level of service that I received not only from FINLAY (OUR LOVED WAITER) but from every single member of staff we dealt with. Keep up the good Work !!!
Goode Brothers is always a Botany staple! We always get great service there and on this most recent occasion our server, Ryan, did not disappoint. He was attentive and gave us enough time to make our order and cleared the table when we were all done. The food is always good and reasonable. Have been there a few times. They have a loyalty program that is a nice bonus as the build up of credit can sometimes put a real dent in the bill!
We attended the Triple 40th Birthday Celebrations recently and was super impressed with the great service (and with a smile) that we received from Matt. Was a great atmosphere and the food was delicious. My husband who was wanting to order a pizza asked if it was possible to have a Seafood Pizza (which isn't on the Menu List). With Matt's support he checked with the Chef first and returned to say it was all good to go. The Seafood Pizza did look very nice when served. All the other Waiters and Waitresses were polite and friendly when serving our meals and drinks. Would Highly Recommend going here for a lovely meal. Would love to return here again one day in the future.
As pub style food goes, GREAT :) with excellent friendly staff who have a good chat with you when you engage with them. Food not to bad either :)
Although the first beer I ordered from a tap was not cold, Finlay immediately apologized for the inconvenience and brought me another cold beer from the fridge. Goode man, Finlay! The loaded burger was large and well priced and the fries were excellent. The Brulee was nicely served and tasted great. I came in hungry and left stuffed to the hilt. Finlay was an attentive waiter and kept checking up on me even when the restaurant appeared to be quite busy. Cheers
The food was excellent! The staff were patient, kind & helpful whilst taking the orders for our group of 9 adults & 6 children, they were particularly so when dealing with our "Hangry" 4 yr old while we waited for our food to arrive. They were also super chill after he had eaten his meal then became excited by the surroundings so began singing, laughing & running around the outdoor seating next to the glass seating area where we our party was seated. I would definitely recommend Goode Brothers for your next meal or simply a drink out with or without the kids.
