    Fabulous night !! Our friends have not stopped talking about the food and service. Celebrated birthday and the food was sensational along with the personalised service from our waiter Sam. What a lovely experience to spoil the ones you love .

    The two of us arrived for my wife's birthday and having been sat at our table, my wife was presented with a glass of champagne, which was a lovely welcome. We had the perfect three course meal at around $100 a head with drinks. The food was first class and special, just as you'd wish for at a celebration meal. Without asking the waiters brought in desert with a candle and sang the traditional song - - just perfect. The restaurant is in first class order, spotless and well appointed bathrooms and the waiters are well mannered and chatty. I couldn't fault the entire experience!

    Every thing in the menu is outstanding but you absolutely need to try the linguine lobster bisque.

    Perfect seafood restaurant for date night. All staff were friendly and attentive and the atmosphere was cosy even though tables were almost full. Complimentary sourdough bread along with a clam chowder shot were great. Oysters were fresh and served with a zingy vinaigrette. The highlight was a perfectly cooked barramundi with fennel and orange. Not cheap, but a bit spesh. We’ll be back!

    90% seafood, good amount of choice, dishes are well executed, portions are very generous, prices are fair., service is good. The indoor rooms are well presented and there is enough space between tables so you don t elbow your fellow diners while cutting your meat.. when we were there the noise level was unremarkable , which means low and good for us - everybody commented on it. I definitely will go back.
