   Overall the service was pretty good. We were seated upstairs, the actual decor was stunning, however as we ascended the stairs the music volume increased, so much so that I thought they were mistakenly taking us to a party. Unfortunately that was not the case. The music was very loud with a heavy base beat, entirely unsuitable for dining. The food was hit and miss, the bug spring rolls were lovely, but the crispy pork was not crisp and a very plain piece of pork. The coral trout was perfectly cooked , however the salad so over dressed we didn’t eat it. Overall, I probably wouldn’t go back.

   We totally loved our dining experience at Blowfish. The menu was incredible, we loved the ambience, the service was great and the food we really enjoyed, plus, we really enjoyed each others company😎 I had really great oysters, which I am obsessed with, I really liked the plates and dishes that things were served on, I enjoyed the service and interactions with everyone, loved meeting the super gorgeous chef Alex too!!! And they were so non fuss about adjusting dishes for me gluten and dairy free!!! I also loved how light the venue is and how airy it is. I can't wait to come back again!! Great job everyone and thanks so much!!!🙌🏽🌟🎉 Thanks so much for opening up in Broadbeach!!!!!A new favourite venue for me!!

   Everything was amazing, we have the “Let our chef surprise you + wine. Everything was really good until the butterflied whiting. There were so many bones and scales on the fish, it was just annoying more than anything. That is my only criticism, everything else was perfect. Will dine again.

   My friend ordered from the menu the whole black sole fish which was priced at $54. When she went to pay the bill they charged her $80. They told her she was served a bigger portioned and was priced at that size. When she ordered from the waiter they did not say anything about a bigger sized fish and a price difference. Never have I ever been to a restaurant where I ordered something from the menu and been told we served you a bigger portion and will now charge you more. I definitely won't be coming back as I think what they did to her was not right and may happen again in the future with any dish! I will be telling everyone about this! They just apologised that the waiter didn't state the size and price of the fish and still made her pay! Updated: I emailed the general manager directly and Kyle apologised and offered a refund

    I went here for a birthday lunch a couple of days ago and had to come back and bring my wife with me this time for a date lunch on Friday. Absolutely superb food.
