    Staff were very helpful for the large group we had booked for and easily accommodated a few extra people who came on the day. No issues at all with the pre-ordered meals. Was a simple process to book for a large group. All meals were great and the lunch time special was great value.

    Super special find with wonderfully unique character in Moonee Ponds! We wanted to try GK as a fun date night restaurant to see if it might be a fun date activity with the cooking class options at a later date. The space is full of eclectic charm and interesting design features. The menu has a variety of tapas options that could suit different palates and taste preferences. I especially enjoyed the beets as a vegan option. The sauce on the cauliflower bombas was fantastic. My partner found the brisket tacos and crispy potatoes to be delicious. He also said the entree size of the calamari was quite generous.

    We booked a package for the AFL Grand Final that included bottomless drinks throughout the game and shared food platters. Our table was perfectly positioned right in front of the big screen, giving us an excellent view. With table service as part of the deal, our drinks kept coming, and the service was fantastic. The food kept arriving as well—so much so that we had to ask them to stop bringing out platters because we couldn’t finish it all! The atmosphere was enjoyable, not overly crowded, and the crowd had a great mix of ages. We’ll definitely be back for next year’s Grand Final if we don’t manage to get tickets to the game!
