I was recently part of a large group who went back to Gabriel's, expecting the same experience that we'd had in the past. Oh deary, deary me! We were SO disappointed with the whole evening...Atmosphere - no fire (mid Winter in Tassie...?), Food - my...meat and veg were great but chef hasn't heard about trimming the masses of fat OFF! Service - woeful in every way...barman/waiter couldn't understand our request for local Gin - we were wanting to support the local businesses - we gave up! We had to get up and go to the bar for every drink - no table service! , he took our orders but couldn't manage to write down who was getting what so the miserable looking waitresses (who couldn't crack a smile), had to call out what they had on the plates and we had to ask each other whose it might be!!, the desserts were brought out while some of us were still eating mains , as soon as we`d finished we were told we had to leave!!! Weren't asked if we`d like tea or coffee or more to drink - nope - we were chucked out! (Absolutely no reason for this at all!) When we asked why, we were told they were closing - 9.30 on a Saturday! We all had to line up and tell him what we'd had just like in a pub. When a few people mentioned our disappointment, this man became VERY annoyed with us to the point of being angry! We were ALL Tasmanians and some were local. We ALL visit the Tasman Peninsula regularly. Sadly, we will not be going back to Gabriel's. Note to owners/management - flush out the restaurant staff now!More
