    Great positioning right on the South bank walkway. Beautifully decorated with a great atmosphere. Happy hour cocktails are only $10!

    Great vibe at this place. The food is good, the service is excellent, the crowd is varied and interesting. I really like it here.

    Even tho I took fotos of the linguine and the risotto-both were under seasoned and needed loads of salt added for flavouring....the Singapore noodles, however were had by a friend and she loved them.

    Great lunch spot at South Bank. Despite daunting size of menus, specials and wine list (needs legion of slaves to carry), menu is brilliant and will find some you'll go straight for. Read more

    I don't mind waiting over an hour in a group for food if it's good! but @ World it's not. Pasta cold&hard, ribs cold, battered fish cold. However the hot chips were great, 4 of us shared and paid $160

    The 400G Porks Ribs may sound interesting but they are nothing special. Go for something else! The James Square is five dollars between 5 and 7!

    Love the vibe and the view by the riverbank. The food is just average. No wow factor though.

    Waited over half an hour for a simple breakfast and the staff were not interested at all. Once again publican group proves they care more about your money than your experience!

    30 min to get a BOOKED table, music is EXTREMELY loud, food is taking more than 45 min to leave the kitchen. Staff are hard to get a hold of. When we finally get the food we will review how it tastes.

    Ok venue but the customers are all rude assholes. Members night always lets in the trash that aren't regulars that consistently will go out of the way to ruin your night.

    Kitchen opens in 10mins but noooo waitresses are not capable of taking orders until then. Instead they spend that 10mins telling people so.

    Don't come in a group. They make you per order in the morning and then wait for an hour for food.
