I can't rave enough about this restaurant! Absolutely beautiful meals, amazing staff (who were also very welcoming to our children) and a great atmosphere. Loved it! More

Second time around, and not the last, but the service will NEED to be improved for the restaurant to complement the fantastic food on offer. Reviewed the restaurant back in August 2011 and thought we'd try it again given that our first experience was relatively good. Arriving right on 7.00pm (our scheduled reservation), we asked if it would be ok... More

Fabulous breakfast menu with plenty of choice. High standard dinner menu. Excellent service. We ate here 2 nights during our week long pre-Christmas stay at Oaks Pier Plaza (see separate review) but you don't need to be staying at the Hotel to use ths restaurant and I would recommend that you do as the other restaurants in town are inconsistent....

It was my families second visit to the Rocks and it did not disappoint. While they were busier and we had to ask for the menu it did not put us off. The Rocks looks onto the beach and the sunsets are magical. We witnessed a marriage proposal and even though it was busy it was very romantic for the... More

I spoke to a young girl whilst making this booking and I asked her for a nice table near the windows as it was for a special occasion on this coming Sunday Fathers Day and his birthday. We arrived to find they are not even open on a Sunday! The Glenelg Pier Hotel's receptionist just shrugged and said the girl... More

After quite a bit of research, we settled on The Rocks for our anniversary dinner. Made a booking at 5.00pm on the day we wanted to go, and was able to secure a table for 8.00pm. Arriving around 7.30pm, we advised the staff we were there and then enjoyed a drink in the little bar out the front of the... More
