    Delicious meal had by all; duck salad, fish of the day, ribs & rosemary potatoes - yum! Wine selection from local area was lovely with good non-alcoholic options. The menu is creative and different. The service is fantastic. Thank you for a great night!

    A lovely long lunch with my daughter for her birthday on a Saturday. we sat in the front verandah on very comfy leather chairs. We had small dishes like tapas and the menu allows for sharing. Each was bought out slowly, so we did not need to rush. Also, you can order a main and share. The cocktails were wonderful.

    A lovely small restaurant with pleasant outdoor dining areas and lovely indoor setting. Service was great, friendly and informative. Food lovely with small, shared dishes then we shared a main. Food was plentiful and tasty. My husband had full dessert while I had a scoop of sorbet as requested rather that the full sorbet dish which was happily served. We were pleased to see local wines on menu and loved the Gurdies sparkling red. Loch and Key a great asset to South Gippsland!

    Very reasonably priced tapas style menu which is great if you love sharing (which I do!). The outdoor tables are lovely on a nice day or if you have your dog with you. Staff were very helpful and friendly. Highly recommend the prawn and calamari starters but it was all delicious.
