    The noise level from the large group of students was very unpleasant. We are good friends who had not seen each other for ages. We had to shout to be heard. Very disappointing. There seemed to be no women in the waitstaff? The men were very hesitant to approach and didn’t display any anticipation of our needs. We are all ex Qantas Flight Attendants so we understand good service. We are aware that they are still learning, but still a little disappointing.

    Thankyou for your feedback. We are sorry your experience didn't meet your expectations. We tried to mitigate the noise from the school group as much as possible by separating them from other guests with partitians. Our waitstaff are our hospitality students and the classes have females and males. Some students were absent when you attended lunch.

    We had another fantastic evening at The Apprentice. Just wonderful! There was a slight timing delay between entree and main, but the kitchen recovered quickly, and the teamwork was a credit to the students. Well done!

    Lovely evening at The Apprentice restaurant, the menu was delicious. The pumpkin ravioli was well seasoned and very tasty. Duck with lentils and cauliflower pure was scrumptious and desert coconut crème brûlée did not disappoint. Our waiter, Nicholas was very pleasant and looked after us very professionally. We enjoyed our evening and for a training restaurant very good value. Definitely visit and support the students who are training for a career in hospitality. 🙂
