Waves on the Beach offers "great food" with "wonderful service" and "breathtaking views" of the ocean. The menu is diverse, featuring dishes like barramundi and duck laksa. Despite being busy, the staff remains attentive and accommodating. It's a perfect spot for celebrations, although it can get "a bit noisy." Highly recommended.

    It was rather noisy although the restaurant was not full. The service was lax. A beer was bought to the table but not opened or poured. Food was very good

    We had a beautiful meal. We were taken here by relatives for the first time a few days earlier and it was so nice we decided to go back again. I had the Barramundi which was incredible and my husband had garlic prawn linguine which was equally as nice. Such a beautiful setting over looking the water and the sunset didn’t let us down, it was breathtaking. Great food, wonderful service and a magnificent view, what more could you want? Highly recommended and we’ll definitely go back when next in Melbourne.

    Had a reisling that paired beautifully with my chicken schnitzel dinner. The portions offered were generous for the price and well seasoned and cooked. Would recommend. Sunset views really from anywhere in restaurant as long as facing window. A few special occasions being celebrated on the night. Would recommend its not fine dining but good food and many options for all.

    Our meals were very good and of good portion size. The service was very good considering it was very busy at the time. Being on the smaller size with ever table occupied it was a little noisy otherwise it a great place to eat.

    Great venue with great view. Food and service excellent but bit noisy for older people. Wouldn’t recommend it on a warm day as got stuffy and hot.
