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.
Learn more about our review moderation.

We had the most wonderful dining experience at Dāna Eating House. The food was absolutely delicious and staff were super friendly and helpful. We were there with our eight month old son and we were given a table with plenty of space which was very...much appreciated. We’ll definitely be back 😊More

A superb dining experience, excellent wines and a sommelier who really knows his business. A wonderful menu that caters for all dietary requirements. We dine there regularly, and our friends who were there for the first time are definitely going back. All combined with top...class service. Highly recommend it.More

We had a wonderful time at Dana. Staff were friendly, the place had a great vibe and every dish we had was delicious! The Massaman curry and Peking duck both deserve a special mention - yum!

We were visiting Hobart for the weekend and booked here due to the reviews but left feeling underwhelmed. We ordered the kingfish sashami which was delicious but the massaman curry was overpriced for what it was. We paid $52 for a curry with the beef...very tough and dry. The flavour was good but the beef let it down.More

The most exquisite food in Hobart! Superb service, great atmosphere and ethos. The Feed Me plate was diverse, well-paced delivery, with an assortment of varied sized dishes. Thank you DANA - what an offering. 🙏🙏🙏

Excellent follow up & advice when I contacted Dana Eating House about a food allergy. They were very thorough and accommodating. The food on the night was delicious & well presented. The location offers lots of nearby street parking.

We received the banquet and as much as the food was not what we usually eat, the variety was small and for $75 per head it just was not value for money

Dana’s Eating House was a recommendation of my colleague’s as my husband and I are having a weekend away in Hobart. The food is amazing, beautiful fusion of Thai, Vietnamese and Chinese flavours. The star was the beef tartare and the wallaby dumplings. Service was...fantastic too, we sat at the bar and were looked after well. We will be back.More

Delicious authentic cuisine - packed with flavour. We enjoyed duck pancakes and Massaman curry dish which melted in your mouth. Attentive and professional service yet friendly. Definitely return. Great music and atmosphere. Thank you!
