    A great spot by the water. Fish is super fresh, cooked perfectly. We had the huge seafood platter for 2 plus Morton bay bugs for 4 people and was perfect. 2 orders of the bugs gives 1 each for 4.

    We all really enjoyed the food. Lovely views and friendly staff. We were placed in a very noisy area at first but when I explained that my dad had hearing issues they moved us to a quiet place ASAP!

    We celebrate my birthday here every year and everyone I invite, are always happy with the service, food and waterside location. This year we had a few extra people than we booked for, and the staff made no fuss about accommodating us. We’ll be back again next year :)

    The view from the venue is lovely. The staff are very helpful and friendly. The food was okay. The room was very noisy and made it difficult to have a conversation.

    I was happy with the waiter and the food but we were asked to leave (nicely) by the matre de as we were there for longer than 1.5 hours. Our allocated time had lapsed. We were told that there were people waiting for our table. There were plenty of tables available. I love this restaurant as I have eaten here a few times but it actually upset me that we had to leave. We couldn't even have a coffee after lunch.

    The gemfish and chips were delicious and the scallops half shell very nice. The dressing is very tasty.

    We had the seafood patter for 2, it looked fantastic. We added a full lobster half n half, changed the crab to extra battered fish and changed the natural oysters to Kirkpatrick. The lobster was overcooked and tough, we had to force it out of the shell, oysters were somewhere amongst the loads of bacon, scallops were microscopic, the grilled fish was 1 tiny piece, the battered fish was HUGE but the fish on the inside of the batter was as tiny as the grilled fish. Calamari was plentiful. The best parts was the chargrilled octopus, the calamari and the fresh prawns. The rest belonged in the bin. Very disappointed. Won't be ordering the platter ever again.
