The cleanest most beautifully displayed seafood buffet we’ve ever seen. The food was delicious, fresh & plentiful especially the barramundi. Huge & varied selection of dishes exceptionally well cooked. Staff were so polite and helpful. Tina & her crew are a credit to hospitality. We will definitely be back when we return to QLD. Thank you so much for making our wedding anniversary special.

Great service and food as usual, only reason for 4 stars is sand crabs were not so fresh and the potato salad was bland. Apart from that everything else was amazing and kids had fun with the chocolate fountain

Wonderful food and atmosphere. Staff were absolutely amazing. I don't think its worth $99 but we had a discount making it around $66, at that price it was definitely worth it. Beautiful array of different food, was amazing.

Very quiet night with not many diners. However, we had a fantastic time mainly due to our wonderful wait staff. The service was simply outstanding and they went out of their way to make my birthday celebration special. I had never reviewed a restaurant before but made an exception this time due to the fabulous service.

Fabulous staff. Special mention to Tina , Toshi, Alex and staff. Great recognition for locals. Wonderful, friendly and professional service. The food was Devine. Lots of variety and all hot where it was supposed to be hot and cold when it was supposed to be cold! Yummy dessert bar. We felt very welcome and valued. A great local haunt.

Me and my friends, 5 of us immensely enjoyed the seafood buffet and we all agreed we’re coming back and bringing more friends over. Also enjoyed the 20% senior discount which was value for our money! Thanks Waves for putting up some great buffet restaurant! in Surfers Paradise!
