Beautiful food, excellent service. Wait staff were attentive but not overbearing. We had a really good lunch here and we will definitely be coming back. $AU40 winter lunch menu (3 course) is attractive. Nice sufficient servings. The view over North Wollongong Beach was excellent from the window table we were allotted. More

This restaurant prides itself on fresh seafood. It does it well but you pay for it. Wine list could be better. It is popular with large parties so the noise can ramp up. More

In my previous review I gave this restaurant a glowing report. NEVER AGAIN! Last Monday night I tried a new dish on the menu- Salt & Pepper Seafood. The quality was well below average and my friend and I didn't finish our meals. I only just made it back to my hotel before being violently ill. I rang the restaurant... More

What was once a fine establishment has turned into a five star fish and chip shop. The menu here has not changed in years and although the owner pledges that all the fish is ' fresh ' on the front of the menu, this is just a blatant lie. The so called Western Australian lobsters are without a doubt from... More

Had lunch here recently and was pleasantly suprised that the food has improved since the last few occasions that I have visited this restaurant. Staff were very attentive and professional. Although not cheap, the views are fantastic and the food was great quality, so no complaints from me on this occasion. More
