This place has absolutely amazing staff! We had a table made up for us due to wheel chair, the waiter noticed there was a couple drops and made up another table under shelter next it starts to rain very quick thinking on his behalf, the waitress was bubbly and super friendly our water glasses were always full, cocktails were delicious and I have no words for the food, absolutely amazing!!! Atmosphere was incredible and we had an all round fantastic time. This place deserves 5 stars and absolutely no less. Incredible guys you all shield be proud!!! I would highly recommend everyone to try Depot! The overall atmosphere of the restaurant is incredibly friendly and comfortable, and the service from the staff is absolutely amazing! A special shout out to the lovely Alex! She is the sweetest, most wonderful, and most energetic person I’ve ever met. We were truly drawn to her warmth and enthusiasm. She took great care of us (and every other customer!) throughout our visit, and when she found out that today was my partner’s and my 9th anniversary, she surprised us with a complimentary dessert as a gift. We felt so grateful and genuinely happy. On top of that, the food and drinks we ordered were absolutely delicious! We will definitely be coming back again. You guys made our anniversary so special! You absolutely made my day! Thank you so much! Would rate 5 if not for the experience we had from the host today. Spent $150+ for two people dinner around 7pm Nov 2. Everything was amazing - from food, chef and waiters except for the host today. We were seated in frontbar and politely request the host today guy with curly hair with glasses and piercing if we can move as it is too cold in the front bar and he was like I will put you in the waiting list and need to wait 20 mins, and he even said he cant do anything about the aircondition. like are you serious we are already seated. And we are freezing infront bar. Plus we can see vacant tables, would understand if it’s busy and no avail seats. We are regular - eat at least once a week , refer u guys to friends and fam but toay is total disappointment coz of him. He even said after we pay after and after giving feedback, like come next time and il give u better seats. Like girl… where’s your customer service and have u not know how to look after regulars… as soon I see next time he is the host il immediately walk away. I hope manager or owner can read this and provide feedback to him.

I highly recommend this restaurant for a delightful dining experience. The lamb was exceptionally tender and flavorful, and the sauce complemented it perfectly. The snapper sliders were delightful, featuring fresh fish that was truly enjoyable. Unfortunately, they were out of oysters that night, which was a disappointment. However, the potato skins are a must-try; they come topped with cheese and are wonderfully crispy and aromatic. On the other hand, the steak was a bit average. It required more chewing and lacked the juiciness I expected. The mulled wine was sweet and provided a warm, comforting feeling. The complimentary hummus served with pita bread was delicious and a nice touch to the meal. Overall, this restaurant is definitely worth a visit!

The meal we had in Depot was superb. High quality food, with a no-fuss but creative play in textures and flavour. Not only was the food good, but the service was excellent. The lovely redhead at the bar (unfortunately didn’t get her name) made our night! She was really fun and friendly!!
