  The place is amazing. The outdoor setup is great, the breeze makes the meals go down very well. The food was perfect, modest portions and speedy service which always makes for a better day.

  Possums has a great artistic, open vibe to it. It is homely and the service is great. The food is quite good. I had the Quail stuffed with carrot and fruit. It was reasonable good. I however expected a bit more flavor from this dish. Had the amarulla cheese cake for dessert. Enjoyed it. Overall, the restaurant is a nice chilled place conducive for a family outing, or an outing with friends.

  Possums is a cosy intimate restaurant. Food is great and we had such a good time that we were reminded to go home😁. The setting is romantic with fairy lights in a garden setting. Also seating indoors. Great cocktails with an interesting variety. Food is excellent from starters to dessert. All and all a good evening out. Romantic setting for two or groups, all catered for. Security all round and adequate parking.

  Expensive, but good food. I liked the simple menu. I really liked that the owner supports artists by selling their art there.

  Food was great!! Very nice seating area outside. Prices are also very good for the amount of food you get. Only bad part was the coffee cups. It was old and chipped. Great experience and the service was terrific👍

  Very disappointing experience, sad to say I ordered the rack of lamb, medium prepared as per the chef's recommendation. However, although medium on the inside, the whole of the outside was charred black. The meat, due to this, tasted bitter and burned. My dinner guest's baby marrows tasted sour and had a bad odour - she suspected it was off. The waiter was also hardly around, except for when he wanted to bring the bill and clear the table. Sadly, a very bad experience.

  A beautiful restaurant nestled in a nice garden setting. Excellent food. A bit harsh on the pocket but worth every cent.

  Outstanding food, excellent service, lovely atmosphere. Pricier than some but worth it for special occasions.

  Good menu but breakfast was disappointing. Dinner was more enjoyable. Service friendly but could be more efficient. Interesting decor and look forward to trying it on a Saturday afternoon when music is on offer. Parking is tricky. Good location. Popular restaurant.

  Lovely atmosphere. The restaurant has a good wine list and a variety of drinks available. The food was very well prepared and well priced.

  On busy corner but surprisingly peaceful for lunch. Great selection. Decent service. This is a good option for celebrations or business lunches. Reasonably priced.

  Terrible service. The security guard kept slamming on our car window when we didn't park exactly like he wanted us to. We ended up blocking someone in because of his misdirection. Our waiter was very unfriendly and brought our knifes and forks in a dirty tray without using a plate. When we complained to the owner she responded very immaturely, accusing us of having bad attitudes and being unfair because we complained. It was just such a terrible experience through and through.

  Lovely atmosphere and ambience. Upper market restaurant. Not an extensive menu, however whatever you order will be served very well.
  
  Original and varied dishes which make it an interesting, alternative dining experience. Staff could probably be slightly more efficient.
  
  Booking is definitely recommended, or can try your luck and still get a nice table.
  Would recommend for a special evening. Private spot, but lively atmosphere.

  Stunning place. If you love art, music and just a relaxed restaurant experience. Then Possums is for you.
