I contacted onda to book in for a dinner for my partner and I. I was a little hesitant after speaking with the new restaurant manager (the blonde lady) because she seamed a bit erratic and honestly downright loopy. Nonetheless I made the booking because I had never been before and I wanted to take my husband for his birthday.... More

Having dined at Onda I hated the food, Now Jardine's (what it used to be called in 80's) the menu is just great, have read some bad reviews but the new young blonde manger and her staff really have attention to detail, having recommend dishes and wines to accommodate, great service! the owner is a...

In past years, this has been a major restaurant in Terrigal - great location across from the beach, pleasing atmosphere and an award winner for its food. Perhaps it's because of those previous standards and awards that it gets judged but it is not the same anymore - ordinary service and ordinary food. Pity as everything about says it should... More

I was really disappointed after going there years ago and loving it. This time we arrived and they had lost our booking and made us feel awkward about it. Then the food starts arriving which was ok, then out come the cockroaches... Yuck! Never again

Turned up on a Monday night after having booked a table. Told when we arrived that the Oven wasn't working and we would be unable to dine there We can't understand why they didn't call us as we walked there, arrived at 7pm only to be then told they were closed. Staff seemed embarrassed as they should have been. Upside... More

Well, we went back here after a break and things have changed --- for the worse. I have to say that everything has dropped in standard. the service, the food, the value for money. I cannot believe the change in the standard since my first visit. Fair enough, some of the staff were new but it wasn't assisted by the... More

Lucky for the view, because the meals were pretty darn average. Uninventive, uninspired and just very very average. Doubt we'll be back.
