The mushroom papardelle was probably the most refined and elegant pasta dish we have ever had. Excellent service.

Yogurt was 6 days out of date, self serve coffee was a big let down, fried eggs were cold and not cooked, the toaster was the slowest on earth. Postives were great outlook and kids playground.

Sadly, as the setting is stunning and the venue palatial (except the heating wasn't up to the spacious lay out - so it was uncomfortably chilly) the food, despite the new menu is subpar. It could be succinctly described as providing beer quality food on a champagne budget. We had the pumpkin to start which was bland, undercooked and drawfed by its entree sized plate. Next the mushroom parpidelle, which lacked both titular ingredients, providing maybe four sad little mushrooms with a shop bought spagettoni style pasta which had long seen its al dente days. This was roiling in an oily sauce with an attempt at a umami flavour reminiscent of vegimite, and topped, incredibly with benito flakes. On a vegetarian dish? The tiny weeny wallaby shanks were apparently fine but even paired with an expensive potato slurry called mash (and seperately priced) left the diner hungry. The meal was expensive and the quality certainly wasn't reflected in the price. How hard is it to provide tasty, fresh food? That there were only two other tables in the cavenrous resteraunt would suggest our underwhelming experience was not unique. Oh. The oysters were good. Not great, but not irritatingly disappointing.

The food was wonderful and the view was great, however, the wait staff weren't particularly skilled in the hospitality department. We were seated and then ignored. Eventually we had to ask for somebody to come and take our order and to explain how the Father's day menu worked. Not a great first impression. We have been wanting to dine here for a while but unfortunately was let down by the service.

Food was not as pictured on the ad. No desserts offered.. what father’s day doesn’t involves sweets. Lucky I only ate a couple of chicken wings or there wouldn’t have been enough meat for my partner. He would gave gone home hungry. Wine selection was only a red or a sweet wine? Not impressed

Hello. We have to honest, we were a Little disappointed that only the basic brunch menu was on offer. We looked at the website and the menu was not the same. Not sure if this was on the website or not but if it was it was not clear. Such a stunning venue but the food offerings didn't meet our expectations sorry.

At present the restaurant isn't serving lunch, just a 'brunch' menu with a fairly thin selection of light lunch items - not really conducive to lingering over lunch. I'm not sure the website makes this sufficiently clear - at the time of writing it refers to serving breakfast, lunch and dinner. Sadly, despite the venue being nearly empty, the food was average and lukewarm.

We found that the meals were not good value for the cost. The crab linguine for $32 was basically just pasta with very little crab.

Booked the restaurant for a birthday lunch and while the venue and vista was absolutely stunning, the experience unfortunately was very disappointing. Firstly we had perused the menu on line and was excited with some of the options we had. On arrival we were told the menu had changed but hadn't been changed on the website yet. We were offered a choice of 4 mains and 4 desserts (however none of the choices we had premade were on the new menu) and when we went to order we found that there was actually only 3 choices of mains and 3 choices for dessert as two were unavailable. When our order arrived we had only one main dish although we had ordered one each. The birthday boy then had to wait until a new dish was cooked before getting his main. To top it off, the short black he ordered was definitely not short. Although a discount was given when the bill was paid, the experience on the day was far from a 'special birthday treat' and extremely disappointing, especially considering we had travelled a distance with the hopes of a special day.

Background music could be softer/ quieter Lovely outlook, friendly staff and good space between tables. The Veal scallopini dish was disappointing as it was crumbed ( should it have been labeled as a veal schnitzel.) as scallopini cooking descriptor.is a light flouring and then pan fried for a few minutes and served with a pan sauce) King fish was moist and tasty but the dish was advertised as being served with coastal greens ( which we had to request and when provided - was a tiny amount to share between 3 king fish diners ) Bread and butter plates were part of the table setting and I was hoping there would have been offered a bread roll or slice of house bread as complimentary Surcharge for payment by card - found this quite irksome as the reason for the surcharge was advertised as keeping your prices down. My meal cost $78 - for 1 main plus a share of sides and a glass of champagne.

Overall good, but It was a very disappointing when my friend ordered the salad and asked if it could be served as a main instead of entree, and if not if she could perhaps have some bread with it and the answer came back as NO to both requests! Almost spoiled my experience, but being in a group I let it go!

We went for Saturday lunch and had booked and checked the menu to ensure it suited our tastes. When we arrived we were told the menu had changed to a more upmarket (expensive) menu, which we thought was more suited to dinner than lunch. Mains were nice, but when it came to dessert 1 of the 3 options wasn't available which meant 2 of us declined dessert. When leaving we saw other cakes on display so thought we could have been offered these as alternatives but that option wasn't mentioned to us. So overall, venue and location were lovely, but disappointed the website wasn't updated to reflect current menu and also that with only 3 desserts on the menu the chef couldn't ensure all 3 were available for the weekend patrons.

Booked for a birthday breakfast for my husband. It was a buffet which we would normally not have but didn’t know until we arrived. The food was average at best and looked like it had been sitting in the warmer for a while. We did get eggs freshly cooked but that’s where it ended. The toast took forever to cook and we had to go and ask where our coffee order was. Unfortunately I could have had a better meal at a cafe. The price of $70 for what we got was excessive for what we were delivered. First time visiting this restaurant and won’t be back

The food we ordered was good, but the portions very small for the price we paid. The service was extremely slow (my swiss visitors were not impressed, nor was I ) ! It looked like you are short of staff. The people who served us were very friendly. It would be such a lovely place with nice views.

The food was really good, the market fish was absolutely delicious and also in a perfectly balanced meal with champagne hollandaise, onion/shallot, and the best asparagus I’ve ever had. The lemon meringue tart was also scrumptious. The view was perfect and there was plenty of room around the table for a pushchair. However, when I booked, I wasn’t informed it was a set menu for Valentine’s Day, I was there with my mother and baby and it wouldn’t have been our choice so that was a little frustrating not being told that. Also wheelchair access not well signposted into the restaurant.

Menu was extremely disappointing, overall food was nice but the lunch and dinner menu were exactly the same with only a few options. For a winery to have no cheese, fresh seafood or pizza was surprising. Food options were very basic pub style. Would not recommend.
