Our visit to Charley Noble was a brilliant experience in all regards. Tonight we had the best meals and the most professional service. Just superb. The place was absolutely rocking and the staff were absolutely on the ball and so happy and engaging. Shout out to Lola who was magnificent with customer service and deserves an award. What a great dinner, place, vibe and staff. Thank you. Came here to get the wagyu. Tried the bruschetta and it was delicious. The balsamic sauce and the hummus were so good together, tomatoes were fresh, and the bread was tasty as well. My seasonal fruit mojito was super tangy but tasted great. Had some spencer potatoes as well which was a good addition to my main, which was the A5 Kagoshima Wagyu. Literally melted in my mouth, it was super fatty and was so good together try for the first time. For dessert I tried their seasonal fruit sorbet, which was icy, and at the time the sorbet was very tangy, but was good overall. I also got the layered honey cake which was 10/10. I came in on 7 November and had the line caught market fish. WOW! It was soooo tasty! It’s served with a dry vermouth cream, basil oil, heirloom tomatoes, provenzal and tapenade tulle and was a real melt in the mouth moment. Can’t wait to come back and try it again!

Our reservation was at 7:30pm on a Sunday, and the place was packed! The server did warn us that the food would take 30mins to arrive and the food took 30 minutes to arrive, and I’ll admit—I was starting to get a little grumpy 🥹😂 But all was forgiven once the food hit the table. Everything was absolutely delicious! We had the peas, roasted eggplant, Brussels sprouts, wagyu beef, pork loin, prawn pasta, and fish & chips — and let’s just say, the plates were wiped clean! 😋 The only downside? It was way too dark. My sister had to shine her phone light just to read the menu, and we needed our mobile lights again to even see (and photograph!) the food 😝 Overall, great food and flavour, just wish they’d turn the lights up a little so we could actually admire the feast!

We went to Charley Noble for a dinner out and ordered their Wellington on a plate burger. Its steak inside a black soft bun. The bun is soft and the steak was cooked well. Although I don't know how I feel about the taste because there is jalapeño and herbs...I am not sure if it jive hence I am giving only 3 out of 5 for food. The service is good, they never failed to refill our water. The waitresses are all approachable but I would suggest that the waitress tried the food themselves so when we order, they can describe it better. Because when we ordered for the rocky road dessert, she can't describe it fully but its just a cheesecake on the bottom of rocky road chocolate. The atmosphere was warm but a little bit crowded. Very impressive that its full on even on Monday night.
