Whilst the setting is lovely, the decor and the menu are dated. And the dated decor needs dusting. In fact the whole restaurant and bar area needs a good clean. It does worry me when a restaurant can't keep the front of house clean,it makes me wonder what is going on in the kitchen. Whilst the seafood main were lovely... More

On a 24 hour trip to Adelaide I fancied good seafood. When I arrived and asked for a table for 1 (away on business) the manager treated me as if I'd asked to urinate from the balcony as opposed to spend $100 dollars with him. He reluctantly led me to an isolated table. It should be excellent with the location... More

A few cold beers, eating seafood & steak whilst watching the best sunset I ave ever seen - what more could you want. We loved it. We had the Mussel pot with garlic & cream, soaked up the juices with bread - would definitely go back for this. I had a seafood plate for main & hubby had a rib... More

We dined at Sammy's for lunch to celebrate our 27th Wedding Anniversay. Unfortunately the meals were dreadful, overpriced and not what was stated on the menu. I ordered the fettuccini seafood marinara which said came with a mixture of fish, prawns etc. Well when it came out the serving was small and had only one whole prawn sitting on top... More
