Best Waterfront Restaurants in Elanora Heights

From the States and wanted to experience Watson’s Bay and Doyle’s. Beautiful location, we had a balcony table and enjoyed the view. Food met our expectations and we would love to come back!

We had a great night!!! The location provides great views of the harbour, however many other places have great views too. Why did we have a great night? The staff were great, and we really enjoyed the food! We had a late sitting - last before kitchen closed, and we were 5-10 minutes late. Group of 5, with diverse food requirements, and the last sitting just before kitchen closed. We had a big order including everything vegetarian on offer. We were encouraged to get our order in to the kitchen smartly, which is fair enough. Why were the staff great? Once the order was in, there was absolutely no pressure on us ( not there was a lot of pressure to get the order in, just a tiny bit of encouragement). Once the order was in, they encouraged us to enjoy the food and location. No pressure. Then there’s attention to detail… One of our party dropped a pice of cutlery, and within seconds a staff member appeared with a tray of cutlery to select the dropped piece… Why were the kitchen staff great? Despite being last order in and a complicated one at that, the food was on point and not rushed - and way better than I expected. I was worried given the pub vibes downstairs. I shouldn’t have been. We shared everything across the party. The vegetarian options completely satisfied our vegetarian, despite the rest of us trying to get in on the show. They were well thought out, and we found them delicious- I would be happy and satisfied just ordering the vegetarian options! The entree eggplant was great, with crunchy crumb, nice soft interior and a touch of heat in the sauce. We didn’t order steak - we don’t eat a lot of red meat. We only ordered prawns and chicken. The prawns were cooked and presented well, and got demolished - enough said! The highlight of the night was the chicken. Just try it!

What a lovely surprise outstanding in every way. Food beautiful quality, different than the general restaurant menu, delicious and so well presented. Staff very attentive, overall very pleasant experience. We were seated in a private area which worked well for us . There is a roof top bar section for those who like a party atmosphere.

We booked online to get an outside table, but had to change the number of people when we got there. The staff were wonderful and quickly changed the seating for us. The wind started to pick up, so we asked if we could move inside. Again, this was no trouble and we even had a quiet private table. The food and service was great, we will be back again for sure.

Great lunch &wine tasting.the guy from winery was so good explaining the various wines. It really made our day out enjoyable.
