Fabulous food, wonderful friendly service and a lovely setting. The Banoffee Mess was spectacular shared by both of us. Although before it arrived my partner said he was full. Next I know he’s eaten half after one spoonful. We will definitely be back. Thank you!

We dined here on a Friday night and the staff were friendly and very helpful. My husband chose the steak which was excellent quality and very well cooked. It's pricey, but quality. I chose the gnocchi which was delicious and I really enjoyed it. A...lovely restaurant, expensive but very tasty with good service.More

Recommended by our dear friends to come with them to Portside for Sunday lunch 12 Sep 2021, sitting out in the fresh air on the grass with large cafe umbrellas albeit a little windy on the day. We were warmly greeted immediately on arrival by...Antony, drinks ordered which were swift to arrive (generous servings of wine by the glass), food was selected from a more than adequate menu - some items had run out of stock as we were the second sitting for the day at 1.00pm, but alternate suggestions were made and these certainly did not fail to please. Entrees were delivered within 15 minutes whilst our beverages were being gently, constantly supplemented. Mains arrived shortly thereafter. Grilled schnapper, and salmon pasta were amazing. Throughout, the service was impeccable. Dessert followed. The best Sticky Date Pudding, wonderfully presented. Carl popped over to enquire as to our satisfaction, and so did the drinks waiter, and dessert waitress - an indication of their obvious passion and professionalism. Thank you Portside for your diligence, mastery and love of running such a fabulous restaurant in Maryborough. Well worth the quick car trip from Hervey Bay. You all deserve much praise.More

We happen to walk passed this restaurant, got a friendly greeting by the owner, had a look at the menu and stayed for lunch. Beautiful food, great vegan options. What a surprise to find such a world class restaurant in a smallish country town. The...staff are great, Next time we travel through we will definitely stop to eat there again.More
