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.

Great casual meal. Lovely staff. My wife is a coeliac and there were plenty of options and staff knowledgeable about dietary restrictions and very helpful. Good size portions great presentation and full of flavour without being pretentious.

Why haven’t I learnt about this place before now? What a great hidden place. Food way better than all local pubs and even so-called up market restaurants. The need to promote themselves more effectively. Wonderful food!

We had a nice dinner. The sweet potato soup, seafood pasta, and barramundi were all excellent . I like their very light sauce with the fish because I like to taste the fish. We didn’t care as much for the lentil cake but overall, great...food well served. Thanks.More

We enjoyed a delicious meal at this resort restaurant, better than we expected. The fillet mignon was cooked to perfection and the pork belly was topped with the best crackling ever! Generous serves with very good vegetables. We shared the salted caramel gelato with macadamias....YUM!! Service was very good, staff friendly and attentive.

Just had the most fabulous meal at Kelly's restaurant. First time I have ever been there. Staff friendly and prompt. Great service. Two meals ordered. The Baramundi topped with prawns in a Thai coconut sauce. Large serving of beautifully cooked Baramundi with sweet and tender...prawns in a light coconut sauce. Delightful. Pork Belly done in a peach and macadamia clear glaze with steamed vegetables. Smokey delicious two large pieces of pork belly that were so tender and a wonderful sauce. Best pork belly I have eaten. Will be coming back and can thoroughly recommend to anyone. Just wish we had room for one of their delectable home made desserts but maybe next time.More

The staff were quite friendly and helpful. I just don’t understand how they write so highly. Please consider… Two soda waters ordered for the table and we received two bottles and have to ask for glasses Beautiful Camon bear Cobb life ordered… And it has...so much potential, but Camon bear still cold in the middle. It was to share, had to ask for share plates. Bag and shirts are risotto also had tremendous potential, but unless you had a mouth full of bug or a mouth full of chorizo, exceedingly bland. Crispy pork belly, also exceedingly bland. Thought it sounded really interesting on the menu with peaches on top and macadamia‘s, but I would not expect tinned sweet peaches on top of a meal such as this. Maybe we just ordered the wrong things, maybe our expectations are too high, but to finish this off, if our rating was based upon the ambience of a dining room in a fairly ordinary resort, they would’ve received one star. I absolutely hate being this honest, but TripAdvisor is meant to be real responses and real reviews from real people in real situation‘s. This was one of the most disappointing meals out we have had in a long memory of wonderful meals out.More
