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.

Small portions, really expensive for what you got and anything that was deep fried was way overcooked (I had to scrape the batter off my fish). Probably wouldn't come back as we ate at other restaurants which were much better quality for what you paid for. Service was a little slow (granted it was busy) and we had to ask for our salad twice (it was included in the meal but didn't come until after we had finished. Sadly, it was very average tasting)

We visited Beach House on the Moon for a dinner to celebrate Dads 80th birthday, and they went above and beyond to make our night special, even arranging pick up from our accommodation after a mix up with our transport. The menu was varied and well thought out, with great choices for all ages, and all our meals were delicious. We’ll visit again next time we’re on Lord Howe Island.

We arrived as a group of 17 (pre-booked of course), and were seated up the stairs on the verandah of the owner’s house! The waitresses managed to get ALL the drink and food orders correct, including some rather complicated requests. And the food was wonderful. My husband had the beer battered fish and I had the prawn curry. Both were excellent. We also indulged in the Apple Crumble for dessert. It was nice. We would definitely dine here again.

Took advantage of the opportunity to enjoy the stunning beach nearby and ordered takeaway. It was 15 later than the specified time (they insisted on a pre-order). The order was incorrect so they left the rest of the meal sitting getting cold and soggy whilst they fixed the order and the serving size was very small for the price

Ordered take away fish and chips which you can only do at times that suite the restaurant. $35 each. Well okay I have a bit of a thing about Fish and Chip shops, see my other posts. I thought well maybe it's one of those places that surprises you. Well it certainly did that! The order came in a "large" container, maybe they load you up, I thought. But, no! When I opened the lid about third of it was taken up with a container of coleslaw! There were three pieces of fish, which combined makes up about half of what I get from my local. The chips were about the size of a small Maca's serve with about a quarter of them being nothing more than the fried end bits of the batter. And get this, nothing to eat the coleslaw with, we only discovered that after we'd ridden off. And here's a free tip I'll give you guys. Try frying the fish after you put the batter on it, it comes out much better. From a business perspective if you don't want to do take away don't do it. But whatever you do do has to be better than this. .

We ate at Beach House on the Moon twice while we were on Lord Howe Island. The food was exceptional and they have a great salad bar (best I saw on the island). Best restaurant that we visited on Lord Howe. Note: 1. The only open on Monday and Friday. 2. Make a booking early - maybe a day or two before hand (goes for most restaurants on Lord Howe Island)

Had dinner here on our first night. Nice meal, beef curry and seafood basket (fish, calamari, prawn cutlet) came with salad. Nice meal, good size meal, prices reasonable Only open couple nights a week so ensure you book. Nice friendly staff. Would recommend.

When you're somewhere remote, with renowned local produce (e.g. fish), offloaded from the boat literally 400m away, you sort of hope for something special - maybe non-Sydney prices, or large portions. With Beach House, you get neither. You get small "fancy restaurant" portions, Sydney prices, a long wait, and meals inexplicably cheapened with chips. For the prices, we were expecting chef-level quality and thoughtfulness. The staff was nice enough, but clueless and panicked. Sorry. Maybe the owners will read this, agree, and turn it around.

This restaurant is only open Monday and Friday so make sure you book, you won’t want to miss it. The food is great, well priced and the wine list is also well priced. The staff are attentive and helpful and the whole experience was the best we had on the island. Don’t miss it!

We have been staying at Milky Way since about 2007 and have dined here many, many times and three times this trip. This time we have my sister and brother-in-law joining us and on every occasion we have left so well fed on the best Fish and Chips. Fresh Kingfish, chips and a lovely side salad. We have also had the meat options, fish combo and calamari - all generous serves and delicious. Good selection of drinks served by great staff. Thank you

Went for tea. Ride our bikes to the restaurant. Seating outside was pleasant. Inside was very casual camp style dining area with white plastic chairs and timber tables. The meals were reasonably priced according to the island standards. The standard of the meal was fair at best. Rather tasteless and soggy fish with very small serving size which I didn’t finish due to the taste and texture. Really disappointing as I looked forward to sampling the local King fish and left most on the plate. Wont return.

Dined here early on during a recent stay on LHI, and had no interest in returning for another meal. The menu was not terribly adventurous and we both ordered the local kingfish, which came with chips and nothing else. It was OK. Service was well-meaning if a bit clumsy. I was bumped on the head with a plate at one point (for which the waiter was very apologetic!). Maybe this was because the indoors part of the restaurant was quite crowded, with tables cramped close together. The wine was reasonably priced, although wine list itself not extensive. Desserts were utterly forgettable.

We had a lovely dinner at Beach House on the Moon. The atmosphere was great. I enjoyed their curry and my hubby had the mixed seafood platter. Both were very tasty. The menu is predominantly fish and did not include veggies (only a salad).

Bustling inside and out; salad bar sides included with every main meal; limited GF options but could have provided more with advanced notice; no vegan options as they focus on the local produce (LOADS of fresh seafood!); bookings essential. Tucked away in the trees, there aren't any views but very pleasant surrounds. Complimentary transfer returning to your accommodation. Our large group of 8 was very well-served.

i had dinner once here. the buffet salad bar is good and the fish & chips are well handled. the batter is thin, crust and not oily. the fish is not very tender. but this is nothing to do with the chef but the nature of king fish itself. however the dessert is a bad ending to the meal. the mango is not ripe. therefore it is not sweet and tastes a bit sour. i have to cut it with some efforts. the toasted coconut is a bit hard which does not harmonize with the whole dish in terms of texture.
