    I’ve celebrated my birthday here two years in a row because I love the amazing view of the ocean & Magnetic Island. At night there’s a good feel too. The food was good quality, an appropriate price and a good serving. Staff were friendly. It was hard to get through to them on the phone but you can book online

    Beautiful setting staff were good and attentive Some tips to improve.... cutlery had to be changed as we noticed it was dirty. One of our meals was missing hashbrowns, which we only realised after we left! Overall, food was good and good-sized serves. Just tighten up on checking fine details would improve things.

    Food was unimpressive. We both had the eye fillet and it was dry . Wedges were just potatoes, unseasoned and served without any dipping sauce . Salad was a handful of rocket , no dressing .

    Fish Tacos, well a piece of fish smaller than a fish finger is disappointing. Risotto served with Sea Scallops was soggy unflavoured rice, yuck. Every persons meal came out separately and 5 mins apart so that’s upsetting, either wait for your food to get cold or eat without waiting for everyone’s meals to arrive. Drinks took 10 mins to come after ordering. Overall, terrible experience and won’t be back

    Always good to be there. Service was a little bit slow due to having a new server, but it's understandable when someone is still learning. Could maybe teach newbies to bring out drinks right away after ordering, but overall happy
