We live locally & feel spoilt for choice with many restaurants & cafe's in our area to chose from. After a positive first experience we chose to eat here again, but this time was not nearly as good. Our champagne wasn't chilled well, our plated prawn salads consisted of heaped scoops of bitter endive & 3 small shrimps each....and the... More

Had lunch here and ordered the seafood crepe. It came in a tomato based sauce which wasn't indicated on the menu. The staff were wonderful in taking it back and getting me the same but in a different sauce. However, the seafood was very tough and mostly inedible. The crepe was light and tasty but most of it I couldn't... More

As we live close to Knox Ozone we frequent a lot of the restaurants. Red Salmon is good, their food is quite nice but the reason I have only given it an average score is that the management/owners don't seem to treat their staff that great. They keep a very close eye on them and it makes us feel uncomfortable.... More

Lunched at Red Salmon with friends recently & would definitely recommend.. our meals were delicious....fresh, tasty & all served with flair. The wait staff were attentive without being pushy, quite friendly & had a good grasp of the menu, offering suggestions when asked which is always appreciated. The barramundi with mango salsa was sensational & a perfect size for lunch... More

Food was of average quality at above average prices. Service seemed chaotic ... there does not seem to be a dedicated waiter for each table, plenty of wait staff but when three wait staff serve the same table and none know what the other has done its a little disconcerting. The place looks nice from a distance, but crowded. Okay... More

I have been to Red Salmon twice, and did not enjoy the food on both occasions. The first meal I ordered had vegetables that were quite undercooked, and the second time I went I had gnocchi that was so floury it stuck to the roof of my mouth - I didn't eat any of the dish. I would not call... More

Since the recent renovations the portion sizes at Red Salmon have shrunk a bit in size however the meals still offer a generous meal. Food is always good, great service from the bar staff and table staff. One of the better offers in the Knox Ozone for sure. More

I went with the kids, they all found something they loved on the menu. The food was well plated, service was great, the staff had great product knowledge and helped me pick out the chicken envelope for my main. I was very pleased. Location is great only 10 minutes down the road. Worth a visit More

I'd been hearing plenty of good things about Red Salmon so I decided to drop in for a visit last week. It lived up to my expectations-the staff were prompt and friendly but not overbearing. The menu had massive variety in cuisines and meats so deciding what to have was difficult. In the end I decided on the Kangaroo fillet... More

Second time I have been here, first time was a shocker but I gave it a second chance! Still a bit disappointing. $6.50 vb beer, 29$ steak which was lacking flavor and a bit over cooked, veggies where a bit too undergone and mash was dry. Probably the last time I will come here. Not that bad but for the... More
