L
We ate at The Goldfinch for the first time today and it was fantastic. We went for lunch and had the calamari, mushroom tacos, and eggplant followed by tiramisu and the chocolate treasure desserts. Everything was delicious. The calamari was the best we’ve ever had! All of the dishes were great. The flavours were unique and interesting and so tasty. They have several options for people who have to be gluten or dairy free and those who are vegetarian. The service was attentive and the atmosphere was lovely. They also had great music playing. We will definitely go back!

Consistently top quality food and friendly/ attentive service. We have been to The Goldfinch multiple times over the last year and every time, we are blown away by the deliciousness of the food. We are slowly working our way through the menu. Mum is gluten free and a huge portion of the menu is Gluten Free. Even the cannoli! And it is all so yummy! I highly recommend anyone prioritise dining here.

The food is divine. We had "trust the Chef" and were not disappointed, so much food and so delicious. The cocktails are amazing, far too easy to drink! They were very busy as it was a Friday night and the bar was struggling to keep up with drink orders, but overall that didn't affect us. They catered beautifully for my Gluten-free daughter. We will be back.
