    Our dinner at Apex Bar X and Dining at Rydges Pit Lane Hotel was outstanding. The fillet Mignon's we ordered were melt in the mouth tender and the homemade sticky date pudding was the best I have had with lashings of butterscotch sauce. The staff were attentive and friendly and we thoroughly recommend this restaurant. We will certainly be back again the next time we are down this way.

    Very poor service for a Saturday night, we were sat in a corner and straight away asked what we wanted. Then were never attended to again. No drink orders were taken, so we had no drinks with the meal. The porterhouse steak was so tough and gristly Yes we were there with the ASBK, but this is the 4th year and they know what it’s like. It actually wasn’t as busy as last year. Capitalising on being the only half decent food place is not good Could have had better service at the OTR service station

    Staff are awesome. It’s so nice to have happy smiley wait staff. You were all so accommodating of everything. Well done. Good job. You should be very proud. Only gave one star on ambience as the actual structure of the dining area, walls and ceiling, has no sound absorption and it got very very loud in there.

    Food was tasteless, dry and had been sitting for awhile before being served. Very few choices on the menu, more choicesof wine than food. Staff were very friendly.

    The new supervisor on both Saturday & Sunday night was the best. She was polite, happy, had all new staff to train & still kept a sense of humor. She needs to be recognized for that. All staff were lovely

    Service was terrible, we had to call someone over so we could start the order process, no table water offered, the meal took around an hr to come out & it was the worst chicken schnitzel parmigiana I have ever had, no flavour at all, the other meals on the table also average Will not be eating there again, very disappointed
