We had an exceptional time at Tziki Bar. We were there celebrating having family up from Sydney and from the UK. Also friends up from South Australia. The food was absolutely fabulous, every dish we had was full of flavour, the sizes were more than adequate. Everyone at the table commented what a wonderful lunch we had had. 10 at of 10 to everyone concerned. Our lovely Waitress Erin was great.

A dish of whole baby barramundi was amazing for the fish - de boned as good as any top restaurant and deep fried - bordering on exceptional however the rest of the plate left a lot to be desired - salad with burn your mouth chilli and no salad dressing and a ring of do called jasmine rice was dry and flavourless. How do you score such an up and down dish?
