My husband and I lived across the street in Queen's Wharf for 6mths in 2005! I was surprised that a 'hotel' restaurant was SO wonderful... but it was indeed SO wonderful! We'd go once every other week or so for dinners... and once a month or so for weekend brunch buffet. We were always satisfied, no matter the time of... More

Enjoyed a lovely buffet breakfast here last weekend, however disappointed to be advised of a credit card surcharge only when we went to leave and pay our bill. Surcharge is not mentioned on the menu nor on the signage when you enter the restaurant, not a big deal in $ terms just one of those things that is irritating on... More

We went to Chameleon during the Chocolate Festival and had a set 5 course chocolate menu. It was delicious! The staff was very friendly and well informed and answered patiently all our questions. Unfortunately, the snow storm kicked in and we had a few, very short power cuts so the lights went off for a few seconds. We either sat... More

My partner and I dined in Chameleon for his 40th birthday. My partner is a very large eater so as always I was hoping the meal would be big enough to fill him up. The service was fantastic, we had an amazing waiter who doted on us the entire night, our glasses were never empty and his conversation was great!... More

Went with family and freinds for a celebratory dinner and were blown away with the food, the service and the fantastic wines. The winter menu is fabulous and none of us could help but RAVE about Ricky's flat bread! Delicious. A huge thank you to Saki who took such excellent care of us, and made the dining experience so special.... More

We have been dining here for over 14 years and always find the menu to offer a wide variety of styles and tastes. Since having a family we also find the childrens menu to be very complete. On our last visit we got to try the new winter menu which was superb. The service is always of an exceptional standard... More

I dined here as a treat for my birthday with 5 other family members. As usual the staff were friendly, knowledgable and welcoming. I ordered the pork belly as my entree, and although a little disappointed at first as there was no 'crackling', I was soon glad of this as the amazing combination of hot pork and cold mustard icecream...

Please bear with me if I digress a little. I have just read other reviews about the Chameleon restaurant that dare I say, to my mind appear to be from people that are maybe too easily pleased, or could it be that there is a more sinister reason they are waxing lyrical in the same tones. The last three reviews... More
