Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

This was a pleasant surprise. I did the breakfast buffet. The service at the front desk was amazing and really helpful. The food was amazing and had a great selection of options, from hot food to cold fruits, to cereal, to pastries. It was amazing....The expresso machine over cooked the coffee making it bitter, but all the other drink options were really good. My 3-year-old loved the apple juice and baked beans. The inside of the restaurant was beautiful and really lovely to be in.More

As a meat lover, I was excited to try Bushfire Grill. The location is great on the esplanade near the Marina. We were pretty hungry after a day out on the reef diving so the idea of an "all you can eat" meal was great....The food is good, the selection and quality of the meat is excellent. But, the wait for the carvers to come around is long, they are very slow so there is a lot of waiting around and trying to get them to come over to the table. Thankfully we were saved by one of the Supervisors (Dani) who came to check on us a few times and in the end she went and got meat and served us herself. I also saw here doing this at other tables. Bushfire, you need to add more and/or speed up the meat service it really lets you down and changes the whole experience from fun to frustrating. Thank goodness you have Dani who took care of us.More

Make sure you wear your loose pants because the food just keeps on coming when you opt for the three-course churrasco experience at Bushfire. And not only is there lots of it, but everything we were served was delicious. We loved tasting all the BBQ...meat (and pineapple), the sides were superb, dessert was great and the staff were fabulous. Such a fun night!More

We had seen this place on a previous visit, We should have known looking at all the "1 review" posts that there was something wrong, All just gushing!! We spent nearly $200 for 2 with a bottle of wine that should have been $8. The...food - in our honest opinion - is very poor. Dry and overcooked. When I asked for rare the server said he couldn't do that as the meat was too close to the skewer. We have been to these South American restaurants in Brazil, London, San Antonio, etc and this iteration bears no resemblance to them. When we complained about the food we were met with a shrug - Like what do you expect. The guy who took our money laughed at our comments. The couple behind us waiting to pay were angry and said they had been "ripped off". When we were leaving another couple went passed and asked what we thought, When we told them they said " a pity we did not run into you before you went in. We would have told you to go elsewhere. So take my comments for what you like but $170 for dry, overcooked meat, over spiced is not woth it. PaulMore

Absolutely amazing dinner ! We came with a small group of friends and were attended to throughout the whole night. Great customer service! The entrees were beautifully presented and delicious. The Brazilian barbecue was succulent and what an amazing variety of meat. My friend who...had the vegetarian option had many choices, which was a nice change to most places. Would defo come back ! Also loved the idea of the little coloured cube to indicate if you wanted more food or pause :D !More
