Amazing view and great food. It was an excellent experience, highly recommend!
We have been to Chris’s restaurant many times and it keeps getting worse, this would have to be out last visit there. The entree’s were good, the service was terrible the waiters were spilling the drinks on the table as they were serving us i the amount of money your paying you’d expect better service. The main food which we ordered was raw and overly priced I’m ordering lamb at a Greek restaurant NO lamb I served like that at any other Greek restaurant the meat was raw you could see the blood on the plate, the meat was tough very disappointing. Greek food needs to be cooked by Greek chefs/cooks it can’t be taught.
We had a great time, the view is amazing and the food was delicious!
The location is absolutely unbeatable and what a view! The food was overall well prepared and tasty, but unfortunately the service was a weak point for this restaurant. We had a few hiccups with the wine service and then the food. Not much of attention for customers but from one staff member, which, in fact, saved the day! He was nice, engaging and apologized for the mistakes.
Essen, Service und Ambiente waren einfach nur perfekt. Wir haben das Essen sehr genossen. Es wird uns als ein Highlight der Australien-Ferien in Erinnerung bleiben!
Absolutely the best Christmas Eve we had for a really long time. Food, vine, service everything was amazing. Thank you for having us.
Great food and view. I was disappointed that unlike my many other visits, this time it was twice forgotten that I am celiac. After being told a dessert was gluten free, and double checking, I found that it wasn't. This is despite mentioning the allergy when booking online and again at the start of the meal. In the past, during my many visits, this has not been an issue.
We had a lovely night. The food and wine was beautiful and the service was fantastic. Thank you 😊
Very nice atmosphere, beautiful view, good wine, and great food ! From the starters to the mains AND desert, everything was delicious ! Special attention to the chartreuse liquor that’s available 🙏🏼
We hadn't dined at Chris's restaurant for a number of yrs and thought we'd give it another go. Our food experience last time was disappointing. Last night the food was amazing and the staff attentive. Thanks ! We will be back if you don't change Chef's. Compliments to the chef - devine food ( just ate far too much !)
Beautiful location and very impressive food and service, thank you
A spectacular view of the ocean at Skene’s Creek along Great Ocean Road situated high on a mountainside. The service was outstanding and food very good. A nice wine selection was also available. A definite stop when in Apollo Bay!
Sehr schöne Räume mit phantastischem Blick.. Sehr leckeres Essen und ein ausgezeichneter Service.
Lovely location with great views. Food was delicious. Not much vegetarian to choose, only 1 dish, and they weren't really able to offer anything else. They did replace one item as my husband was allergic to something but he doesn't like polenta and they didn't offer him an alternative. But I enjoyed my fish of the day and the dessert was great! Each time we come to this area we go to Chris'.
I can't complain, the atmosphere and look of the restaurant is just spectacular, pictures won't give its magnificent views true justice, it's truly breathtaking. The food, while some was great and some was "ok". I had the garlic shrimp and each shrimp was absolutely amazing, fresh, delicious and I enjoyed every bite. The 300g of steak was "ok", as it didn't look to be 300g worth, was bloody (we asked for no blood)... But I understand, most if not all chefs do not like to "over" cook their steak, however, we did kindly ask for it not be bloody... however, it was still enjoyed when they brought it back after searing/cooking it some more for us. Overall, I highly recommend the place, the staff was very friendly and accommodating, the views are second to NONE, the food, depending on what you get, is great... and the prices are very reasonable.
We asked for separating the sauce from the pasta the guy said no problem and still come with mixed . We asked the salad to serve fist and it didn’t come until later. The waiter asked us what’s our orders individually and when the dishes come to the table still served to the wrong person . Food was ok but over the the price . The view is amazing
Excellent service, really nice food, reasonable price.smf amazing views. Recommended.
Outstanding, everything was great, will come back to try other foods
Quality food and wine in a restaurant with a spectacular view! A truly WOW experience!
The prawn is perfect!!! The most delicious one!!! Really recommend this!!!
It was a really good night. The waiters made the restaurant with their friendly assistance and attention to detail. The food overall was pretty good. The bread rolls were a little dry However the cured king fish was amazing . The Fish of the day was nice and cooked well. The Greek orange custard, dessert was nice but I think all the items on the plate didn’t go well together.
This would have to be the best dining experience I have had. The view from the restaurant was sensational and we were made feel special from the moment we arrived. The food, wine and service was amazing. Highly recommend this restaurant for that special occasion
The view and the service were fantastic! Looking forward to be back
What a special place to share dinner with friends - such stunning views! The food was delicious and the staff made sure we were looked after and were so lovely. Thank you so much for making my birthday so special too xx
Wonderful dining accommodation and hosts thankyou for a lovely night
Thoroughly enjoyed the beautiful view, amazing food with excellent service in a relaxed atmosphere.
Menu not big, but certainly enough with some really good choices. Just right for this style of local/ accommodation restaurant. Great food and service
Food was good (expensive though), but service very disappointing. Specified a special birthday in the booking - but when we arrived, they didn’t ask or know about our booking and gave us a table by the kitchen / toilet area. It was also really cold there, had to wear my jacket during dinnner. 10 minutes after we ordered, we were informed the specials we had ordered were finished and had to chose something else. Long waits might indicate staff deficits
We had an amazing dining experience with absolutely breathtaking views!
Food was excellent , view extraordinary service even better! ................
Great restaurant. Excellent and courteous service and food is magnificent
Great service and food view great view. Very Highly recommended.
What a wonderful place to stay, great friendly staff and food. Amazing view, but weather a bit challenging, but room warm and comfortable
We loved our evening at Chris's. Food was lovely and the staff went beyond all expectations to make a significant occasion even more special!
I was able to enjoy a delicious meal in a quiet atmosphere. I would definitely like to come back again.
First visit, great service and fabulous food. Will come back!
Good generally very good/excellent apart from kussels… overcooked and dry
Location, service & food were all fantastic! We’ll be back 😊
Taking no notice of special comments made during online booking demonstrated lack of personal touch. The lamb kleftiko was only lukewarm. The views were great. The staff were very pleasant and attentive. Not being offered our preferred table , which was vacant, did not start the evening well.
I love this restaurant. Everyone raves about the views, and rightly so, but I also rave about the food and the whole experience. To start with the food, the menu is not huge, but it's wide enough, and there's always something appealing. And best of all, it's always beautifully cooked. There's lots of seafood, and seafood is difficult to cook exactly right, but I have never been disappointed at Chris's. I had their seared trout fillet tonight, and it was absolutely perfect. Likewise, the drink list is not enormous, but very carefully chosen and every one is a winner. I love a good martini, and they do it just right. Then there's the atmosphere. Pleasant, comfortable, welcoming, peaceful. What more could you want?
Amazing restaurant and great views to dine at. You can see the beautiful coast
Should have booked lunch instead of dinner and enjoyed the beautiful views . The food was delicious.
Nice ambience and lovely food. Great spot for a special occasion.
Service was great with a perfect level of attention. Our meals were delicious and the desserts a highlight. And the evening view of Apollo Bay makes it a night to remember.
Food and service as good as you could wish for. Also an excellent wine list. Reasonably priced.
The food and atmosphere was lovely. It arrived promptly and was the right temperature. Overall service was excellent until later in the evening we were not asked if we wanted dessert and the staff were clearing and resetting tables. Which is fine but we were completely ignored by the staff and this felt like a large hint that it was time to go, despite the fact that there was still a table of other guests in the restaurant. It was difficult to catch anyone’s eye so we decided to leave. It was just as strange end to what was overall, a lovely evening
Absolutely amazing, we were recommended by a friend to Chris’s Beacon Point Restaurant. On arrival the view and restaurant was simply amazing - definitely a candidate for a long lunch (but only to stay at onsite accommodation thereafter 😉. Personalised service with a great menu and carefully curated wine by the glass (for those who need to drive thereafter). I’d put the wow factor on a par with Sky Bistro at Banff. Will definitely recommend to friends (and a must return).
Great tasting food, wonderful friendly staff and a lovely setting.
Fantastic views, great service. Enjoyed my meal and wine. Very efficient
Great food, great service, fabulous view (even at night!) Will definitely be back
