In October 2024, The Sydney Morning Herald, The Age and Good Food detailed allegations of sexual harassment, exploitation of female staff and drug use at Merivale venues. Merivale, the owner of this restaurant, began an internal investigation into the claims and said it is committed to “an inclusive, diverse and respectful workplace environment for our staff, as well as for our customers”. SafeWork NSW also began investigating the company. In June 2025 and July 2025, further allegations of exploitation and underpayment of Merivale workers were made, and Fair Work confirmed it was investigating the company. Merivale has denied all allegations against it. The investigation remains ongoing.
Ms.G’s neon sign may have been glowing since 2011, but Dan Hong’s signature brand of nostalgic, umami-rich fun still pushes boundaries and borders with as much enthusiasm as ever.
Lemongrass-spiked steak tartare is alight with Vietnamese chilli sauce, while the “Tasty AF” noodles deliver on their promise with help from sambal, kombu and puffed rice. Hong’s knack for flipping the script on classics is legendary and the kitchen has the smarts to pull it off.
Cheeseburger spring rolls are as addictive as you remember, while the burrata with sesame, chilli and peanut crunch and hot, numbing “strange flavour” sauce remains one of the city’s freshest takes.
Diehards know the foam-capped aloe vera cocktail is still a sure bet, the wine list is fresh as, and the “Stoner’s Delight” for dessert? It’s up to its third iteration, and it may be the best yet.
