Cannot fault the service. The restaurant is well presented, modern and clean. The staff are attentive, engaging and there are plenty of them. Food was quick and plentiful and most of all tasty. We went the American BBQ group share which is the top end of menu pricing and it allowed us to sample a wide range of what Roast Republic offers. The big ticket items for me were the lamb chops and the tomahawk steak. The corn was a sensation. When they offer gloves for eating the wings take them for best enjoyment - especially for the spicy buffalo. Drinks were well priced and they have great mocktail range. You will not walk away hungry, in fact we were fit to burst.

What a lovely surprise outstanding in every way. Food beautiful quality, different than the general restaurant menu, delicious and so well presented. Staff very attentive, overall very pleasant experience. We were seated in a private area which worked well for us . There is a roof top bar section for those who like a party atmosphere.
