Love Waves, it has it all. The service is excellent, the food is great and it has the best views. Fantastic for any occasion.

Thank you for having a vegan menu. This has become my usual date night spot for me and my partner. Love the food and the beautiful ocean views!

Ordered food and waited over 50 minutes just for entree’s while everyone else around us who got here after revived entree’s as well as mains. When asked about the wait they had to reconfirm the order as it was never put through.

Only down side, no steak on the menu. Beautiful setting. Staff were attentive and friendly. Food was lovely!

Service was great, staff were nice and friendly, the view was nice, the chips were perfection. The chicken was a tiny bit tough and it was quiet salty, which is something a lot of people mentioned. Overall pretty good food, but hopefully they add less salt.

Food was good, but we all ordered mains, and had to wait well over an hour for our meals. The place was half full due to covid, so it wasn't busy

Came to Waves for the first time. Was an OK experience.

There were a few disappointments though. To start, the tables are too low. My partner felt she had no room and she's only 5 foot! I'm 6 foot 5" so dare say I was pretty uncomfortable and cramped. Need bigger tables for foot and leg room for comfortability. Entree came out (Arincini) and was pretty tasty, but unfortunately it was only lukewarm and almost cold. A bit disappointing, but didn't want to let it ruin my day at that point. Then came the mains. I ordered the Chicken Parmigiana. It was a huge size so great value! I couldn't even finish it all! (which is very rare for me). However, that meant nothing as it was unfortunately let down by a slight lack of flavour. Was cooked through and hotter than the Arincini at least, but for $25, I think there could be a bit more flavour to the napoli sauce (or whatever sauce you had used on your Parmy's). Chips also completely bland - I barely ate any. Also kind of odd that you need a $10 deposit per person just to make a booking. Oh well, didn't matter in the end anyway. At least the final bill seemed cheaper. I will say on a positive, the staff were very friendly and prompt! But a bit let down by the food - a shame.

Didn't want to make a fuss as I was out with my partner for a nice day, but overall the experience and food was just OK. Wasn't the worst food I've ever had by any means, but nothing spectacular unfortunately.

Way too crowded. Felt as if I would get poked in the eye by the fork of the person sitting near me. Food was good and prices okay, but did not appreciate paying an upfront deposit for the experience.

An excellent restaurant which serves a variety of vegan and non vegan food.
The restaurant itself sits right on the Frankston foreshore, and not to mention the staff which was exceptional.
The meals average in price from $25 to $38 and are a substantial portion as well.

An excellent restaurant located right on the beach.
The atmosphere is warm and the staff are vary professional and friendly.
The restaurant menu has a selection of vegan and non vegan dishes ranging from $25 to $38.
It's well worth the try.

First time going to Waves such a beautiful spot right on the beach, it was raining but still nice to sit near window and look out across the bay. Food was amazing if you are a celiac they cater for you, staff are amazing, will be coming back again.

It was ok. Presentation was great, food so-so.

I had the spicy salt calamari. The calamari was nice and soft, but not spicy or salty at all.

My partner had the salmon, which looked great but was undercooked and had no seasoning.

Fish and chips were great I was told.

Coffees afterwards were lukewarm and not strong enough.

Toilets were good and clean.

Atmosphere was good. Nice view of the
beach outside.

Service was good: we didn't wait long for the food.

Prices are a bit expensive, but not bad.

This restaurant rest on its laurels of an amazing bay view.
Had to wait 100mins before any food appeared. That's a long time for an adult and even longer for a hungry 4yr old: (
We booked early in an effort to avoid the peak serving time but somehow are order was left until last. A guest from our table had to ask for our food.poor customer service. Water jug not refilled either.
FINALLY, the food arrived and it was delicious. We didn't have time for coffee or even a look at the dessert menu because our 2hr parking limit had expired.
A disappointing experience overall instead of a focus on the fresh food.

Fish platter was delicious and the views were very good. Service was okay and the restaurant wasn't too busy when we visited. The restaurant itself is quite nice and there's both indoor and outdoor seating. Meals were relatively expensive but this was to be expected.

Sadly this time was very disappointing, drink was flat, plastic in my salad, sisters fish very mushy in middle, other guest chips were ordinary, have been quite a few times, no complaints but this one was very ordinary and pricey

Epic! Wow. Massive servings here the barramundi was so good and the large calamari we split between 3 for a starter was gigantic we were almost full from that alone! @? Service was koota and the view was great. I wish i got there a little earlier for the whole sunset.

Always love coming here from time to time. The staff always friendly, the food is always nice and great portions too, it’s cozy here and I always enjoy a good cocktail jug. It’s even better during daylight savings near sunset with the view over the sea.

Limited food selection, everything we ordered tastes aweful. Meatballs were served raw, lamb cigars very dry. Great view, friendly great staff. Terrible food!

The food was delicious. The Spanish prawns was the best, we loved it so very much and the sharing platter for two was enough for 4 people, there was so much food. Nice location and good service. Value for money. Will go again for sure.
