We had a lovely meal on a Monday evening. The menu selection suited us perfectly and was just what we were looking for. The staff were friendly and attentive, and the food arrived in very good time, and was delicious. Best carbonara in a long time.

Visited again whilst on holiday in Nelson Bay after two years away. The food and the service was still good value. Both our two girls 8 and 10 enjoyed the menu. We then booked for Christmas day - was again had a good experience. Family orientated and nothing seemed rushed or too much trouble. Mike

The seared scallops were excellent.however the meat tasting platter was disappointing. The pork was beautifully cooked but the other two meats were substandard.

Overall meal was good but steak was very much overcooked. Disappointing. Oysters amazing and my prawns gorgeous. As we always go there each time we come to Nelson’s Bay not sure whether we will return because of the steak. They were apologetic and did discount our meal to their credit. Need to get the black Angus steak cooked right guys!!!!

Usually have a great meal here but tonight the lobster topper on my pasta was chewy and possibly frozen not fresh - not up to the usual standard.

The food was amazing! Great GF options for mains and a couple for dessert. I had the barramundi special and the brownie. Everything was scrumptious, a great meal if you want to treat yourself to something fancy.
