    Tボーンステーキはサラダとマッシュポテトも日本の3人前くらい付いてきてボリューム感あり、味も美味しかったです。最初のお料理の提供時間がオーダーから1時間くらいかかっていたので時間に余裕がある時が良いかと思います。

    We went to this high end Restautant (as the prices show over $100) expecting the best. My steak was cooked perfectly but there were too many flavors on the plate, too many different types of food and too many sauces, after a while I felt sick and could not finish my meal. My partner who eats anything felt exactly the same, he left half his meal. The chef is obviously talented but simple is better - maybe he has to follow a menu set my management? Also, we had one drink and one glass of water and never saw the waiter again - would have brought more, annoying. We won't go back, and we are locals.

    せっかくオーストラリアに来たからにはと評判の良かったこのレストランを予約して行きました。 平日だったの混んではいませんでしたが、念願のTボーンステーキとサーロイン、その他アペタイザーをいただきました。 ステーキは程よい脂身と赤身肉がとても美味しかった。Tボーンステーキも2つの肉質が味わえサイコーでした。 お店の雰囲気も店員さんの対応も丁寧で大満足!お値段もそこまで高くはなく、ゴールドコーストに来た際は是非、寄ってみてください!

    The food is fabulous. The pork belly is the best I have ever had. The bright lights made it feel a bit like a cafeteria. Just need to change their tasting plate because it has been the same for too long. I still love to eat there.

    Went to Clifford's for Fathers Day Tomahawk steak and service by drinks waitress was extremely poor and same waitress took our food order and had no idea what she was offering for the sides as she said we could pick from the entrees list, which we thought was very unusual. Asked for our Tomahawk to come out medium rare and it came out just off blue, and was like trying to eat boot leather. Complained to host and he actually asked us if we wanted him to heat it up and cook it a bit more. After we refused that he was quite happy to remove the Tomahawk price from our bill, as we had hardly touched it...

    Steak was closer to well done than medium rare. To me everything was salty. Too many sauces. To say the broccolini was the best part isn't a good wrap
