Came for lunch today, the service was great. Ordered garlic bread to start, which was so yum! All 5 of us loved our meals. Flathead tails so fresh and melt in your mouth, seafood curry was delish and the seafood paella was to die for. Parma and chicken burger yummy too. They do a great Aperol Spritz.
We went here to try this restaurant for the first time Food was delicious ordered seafood platter for starters for four of us it filled us up and it was for 2 people then we ordered mains on top. The waitresses was really good service was good .thank you also to the chef behind the scenes for a lovely dinner.we will be back 😀
Enjoyed the seafood platter for 2, with a bottle of Brown Brothers Moonstruck Shiraz, which surprisingly paired well with the meal. The seafood was expertly cooked, melting in your mouth, with subtle but distinct flavours. Would perhaps like to have seen a couple of additional flavours (seared scallops and Oyster Kirkpatrick), at the loss of a couple of battered flathead tails (although these were still impressively good). The service was wonderful, with the waiters listening and acting upon requests. The atmosphere was pleasant, without breaking any new grounds. Thoroughly enjoyed our meal and would recommend to others who enjoy great seafood and a relaxed atmosphere. Cheers everyone!! **Update** Went back the following week and asked for the scotch fillet steak. The steak was cooked to perfection. Medium rare and a solid piece of meat, well trimmed! Have changed the food rating from a 4* to a 5*. They clearly have excellent chefs who can cook both seafood and steak exceptionally well. Well done!
Absolutely brilliant food Terrific service Great atmosphere Highly recommend this golden hidden restaurant. The staff having a laugh with us, made us feel so so special. Do yourself a favour and head to this place a try. You will not be disappointed at all.
Come here every Wednesday night for steak night ! $30 for a steak and wine. Can’t go wrong. And their specials menu always has great options !
Beautiful food and coffee. Never had batter on fish that is so soft it melts like butter. Price for everything is so good I would recommend you try this place.
Exceptional, loved the pan seared gnocchi, tasted the prawn fettucini & will order that next time, the fish (kids meal & adult meal) was cooked beautifully, everyone on the table enjoyed their meal! Lovely service, will definitely return & recommend.
Food was great and friendly staff. They accommodated us with no booking, but usually a booking is required. Thanks for the wonderful service.
First time visitors, and was impressed from the start, greeted at the door and escorted to a table, the ladies were wonderful, the food was absolutely amazing, even got to try a new cocktail. Will definitely be back.
What a feast!! The seafood platter was incredible. The flavours in everything were amazing. I’ve had many seafood platters that are quite bland but this isn’t one of them. Well worth the money!
