  • From King St looking in, this place looked fantastic, and overall yes it was pretty great. The atmosphere is cozy with dim lighting, clean tables and modern presentation with contemporary style dishes. The cutlery felt cheap though. Not high end which was in contrast to the presentation of the rest of the restaurant (which I thought was part of the upstairs...ooops). Sooooo......what I didn't realize until hours later (I missed this super important detail at the time of dinner) that this place is NOT one in the same restaurant. I thought we were dining at "Fred's not Here" but down the stairs is "Red Tomatoe". Basically you head in the door and upstairs in one place, down is the other. Heading inside there is a really cool spiral staircase heading downstairs. This is where things get weird. Our hostess asked us where we wanted to be seated. Upstairs was where steak and seafood was being served (later I found out AKA "Fred's not Here" and downstairs was where pasta was being served AKA "Red Tomatoe". I touched in this right? Yup!! Anywhooooo..... Seeing that my wife wanted pasta we headed down the 3/4 turn spiral staircase. We were seated at our dining room table made of medal - pretty cool looking but I thought it was a refurbished metal counter top from an industrial sized kitchen. Weird. Again. But kinda cool. And fun. You'll see both the booth with the metal table and spiral staircase in one of my photos. Have you ever seen a Tasmanian devil? Well out of nowhere came our waitress. Nice enough lady. Young, pretty, presentable, and polite. But she was quick. And that feeling she had of being busy seeped into our experience somewhat leaving us feeling anxious. And this dinner was for my wife's birthday so I kinda resented her busy-ness. Mind you we went to dinner just before a show (this place is super close to the Royal Alex and Princess of Whales theatre). So she may have been serving a ton of theatre going folk - in her defense. She had the PPP though (see above). The food - was average. Tasty and hit the spot. My Dublin Coffee came before the dessert (it should have been presented same time dessert was). The dessert tasted like a thawed presidents choice cheesecake. And our PPP Tasmanian devil waitress forgot my wife's hot beverage - no need to remind her, my drink came separate from the dessert so why screw up dessert further?! It was fair on the cost vs value scale - perhaps slightly more expensive than average. Overall - I enjoyed myself. So did my wife. Certainly would like to try "Fred's not Here" next time. Or elsewhere. Lol.
