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.

A big thank you to our wonderful host Victor. He ensured our party went smoothly. The food was plentiful (ordered way too much). The bar service fantastic, the bartenders were fabulous especially handling a large group. The area we had was perfect, top deck and...garden bar, great vibe and we were lucky it wasn’t a super busy night.More

The food was good. The place, however, was far too busy. There were several parties in progress and they showed no respect for other diners, constantly bumping into our table. Staff should have controlled the crowd better

Last Sunday I celebrated my 50th birthday with 50 friends at White Rhino. Everyone had an absolutely fabulous time, I couldn't fault it. The manager was so welcoming, the staff were great and the atmosphere was brilliant. 33red created a fun vibe, such talented singers...and my friends all said they would definitely host a party there, they loved it! Thank you to Erin in the lead up to the party and organising everything so well. What an incredible night!More

The Americanisation of the Gold Coast... the waiter actually asked for a tip at the table when we were paying! Then we got home to find out we were over charged... avoid at all costs!

Great bar with nice ambience and live music. We tried some of their cocktails which were great. I was a bit disappointed as they booked the table for us (online) for 8.15 and we ordered starters and cocktails but the kitchen was closed at 8.30...for dinner without informing and we were didn’t get any food (they do have a basic late night menu but not much). They then started handing out all the bills at 9 which was weird and we ended up felt like being rushed. I would definitely visit again early evening but may be not after 8 PM next time. The staff need a special mention as they were all super polite.More

The staff were amazing, and our guests all had a great time. I had never organised an event like this before and the communication and suggestions were great. They made us feel at ease. The Mezzanine space was perfect for 55 people and the guests...loved the dance floor towards the end of the night. The food was reasonably priced and delicious. Very convenient location close to the tram, parking and walking to other clubs.More

Let me start with that food is quite good (when cooked correctly). The service is below par. We had a family of six and it wasn’t busy. I ordered the rump cap medium rare… it was beyond well done. Inedible. It was made again and...came out blue (which is still better than burnt to a crisp). A beer was ordered but not delivered - it took three requests to get the beer, but they gave two and charged for them both. After this, service was non-existent. This was a shame, as the food would been enough to carry a four-star review of the service was even average. Although I don’t know how any chef could possibly mistake medium rare and well done.More
