The photo's of this place and the meals looked really nice so my husband and I thought we'd try it out. It was a hot day outside so I thought it would be nice to sit inside in the air-con and have a nice meal. We were seated outside to begin with, way to hot out there so asked to be moved inside. Wasn't much better. Paying $40 for a meal and can't even eat in comfort. Sat there sweating our arses off and uncomfortable. And can't say much for the meals. Way over priced.

Arrived at 16: 45. Waited untill 17: 22 to order. No one came to take our meal order so we called them to order our dinner. They brought bottle of water. Got meal, around 18: 10. They asked if we would like another drink. When we finished meal no one came to ask would you like another bottle of water or drink, how was your meal or would you like dessert. Unfortunately, we are not coming back for another meal

The place is a modern pub that you could watch the pier, listen to the music as well as have something to eat.
My friends were there to eat late lunch as well as watch an AFL match. We started with a cheese platter. We all enjoyed to nibble on it until the game started. As a non-alcohol drinker, I only drank Soda water but my friend complained about amount of alcohol they put into his drink.
Stake sandwich was good but it didn’t come with anything else. Normally you get small amount of chips or wedges next to it. Same applied to the chicken burger. So we had extra “large” bowl of wedges placed next to it for presentation purposes.
Smokers kept coming in and out, bringing their smoke with them. Having acute asthma patient, I had shortness of breath at times. Next time if I ever come into this place, I’ll make sure I am away from that sliding door.
Overall it was good. Furniture was not comfortable as they have wood stools.

We were part of a group celebrating a birthday for Sunday lunch. Venue location was fabulous, we were greeted on arrival and directed to our group. Drinks were ordered but we waited some 30 mins for a beer and glass of wine to be served. This happened again with our next round. We started the meal with the sharing plate with yummy cheeses, ham, salami dip etc.good value, which primed us for our mains, the seafood paella. Such a disappointment. The serve was large but was more the consistency and flavour of risotto with prawns and overcooked mussels added and served in a small pan to give a paella appearance. Chorizo was hard to find in the very liquid dish. We and others ordered more drinks which failed to arrive at our table at all during the meal and thereafter we went to the bar to get our own. Wait staff were inattentive and service sadly lacking.

Amazing seafood! From my point of view the spaghetti Marinara best dish with a lot of seafood. Recommend it!

Unattentive staff that were not overly friendly or welcoming. The food was mediocre and very overpriced.

My family and I always come here and it's just the best.
Beautiful views of the water, well priced drinks and the $19 bar meals are great value for money!
Would love to see a couple more veggie options though!

Thought it would be a lot better, our bill came to just over $600, people on our table only got half of what they ordered and had to chase staff for the rest, Drinks service could have been better as well, As a local thats lived in the west for over 40 years I have heard good things about this place, Sorry not a fan won't be back

Staff didn’t really know what they were doing, had multiple different waiters (including one waiter that proceeded to ask us “you guys need anything? ”) I was shocked at how bad the service was. It took at least 30 minutes to take our order. Entrees came out before our wine and were average. The prawn and crab bruschetta was so soggy and not my ideal crispy bread expectations, main of mussels was okay, taste was good, just so oily! Wine was nice.

Went to pay at the end, didn’t get asked any friendly questions how our meal was or even anything. Not even a goodbye!

I highly recommend the management train the staff a little better!

Will not be coming back: - (

The food was amazing! We ordered the entree muscles and the seafood platter. Very flavourful and the service was prompt. Definitely will be coming back here again!

Great food, really great service and team, comfortable casual feel in the restaurant. Recommend the paela, marinara, and steak; all were great quality. Only thing i can fault was that it can get a bit loud and busy because the bar is close to the restaurant, but that's the only thing I can think of.

Unfortunately i did not get the opportunity to try this Restaurant as Stage 4 restrictions put a stop to that, BUT if the Restaurant is as lovely as staff member Hannah then I will be back to try asap. Hannah was wonderful when I booked offering me helpful hints in booking the ferry etc. Hannah advised that a $50 deposit would be required to book which I thought was fair considering the ignorance of patrons not turning up and when the latest restrictions were announced Hannah was quick to advise they would be refunding that deposit asap. Very honorable considering it was Valentines Day. I did not have the same luck with other companies booked for Valentines Day so commend the efforts of the Restaurant.
Go give them a go and support this wonderful Restaurant. I certainly look forward to meeting Hannah and enjoying the food which had come so highly recommended to me. Thank You Hannah

Amazing staff & food!
The staff were so attentive & Emma @ front of house kept checking in to see if our night was going well.
Great idea to see a pop up bar near the water for a refreshing drink after we left. 10 Stars

Short haired waitress was super lovely, food was nice but the share platter was surprisingly on the small side, easily eaten by 1. But the plates for 1 were well sized.go figure!
Another annoyance was the band were turned up too loud which meant we couldn't talk over dinner.think the speakers should be only be on the bar side.but great atmosphere beforehand.
$320 for 5ppl

Food was great. Steak cooked perfectly, marinara had lots of seafood in it. Staff friendly and service was quick for how busy it was. It is attched to a bar so be prepared for it to be noisy.
