Good food, good service. The only negative I have is that the Spur next to OB has their speakers facing directly into the dining area outside, so the lovely calm atmosphere is broken every 15 minutes for an obnoxiously loud birthday song. I do not mind these songs at all… if I go to Spur I want the lively music and im not bothered, but if you want a calm lunch usually associated with other OBs this is really distracting.

So I thought I’d get some sushi for a quick snack. Unfortunately nobody wanted to assist a customer ordering a take away. Then returned after 30min to collect which was obviously not ready. Best part is I open my box and the samon roses were put into the box upside down….. I mean really! Don’t waste your time or money going there. If you feel like sushi rather support fireroom, you pay but the they definitely look after you as a client and the sushi is amazing.

Ordered take-away … the chips were a really small portion, the smallest I have ever seen (with most warm at the best) and the kingklip was overcooked. Pity, our takeaway experience with this restaurant is so variable, on a few occasions its been really good, but often its poor, almost as if no care is taken at all, cos the staff know the order is leaving the restaurant. I think the tally is now more bad than good, so gonna think twice before ordering again. EDIT: Thank you to Ocean Basket for coming back to me and listening to the issues in greater details. Appreciate that you will take this up, and hoping for a better experience going forward.

So we entered the restaurant with our hungry children just before 13:00 today. After raising my hand, we were finally attended to and our orders were taken. After waiting the whole hour for our orders, the waiter who took our orders came to apologize stating that “the kitchen is stuck”, and elaborated that they were short of staff. I asked for an estimate and he said “5 minutes”. Surprisingly, some other people who came after us were being served. About 20 minutes later, another waiter came to apologise with a long story involving Home Affairs and the absent waiters who are foreign nationals. Long story short, we ended up leaving the restaurant without being served our orders.
