Fun , casual relaxed dining we don't take our selves too seriously but we take our food seriously.
Great local craft beer range, awesome full strength cocktails & a solid wine list.
We use all Aussie iron bark in our offset smoker, to cook the best wings, ribs and brisket around.
Lots of other menu options available, we think our burgers are pretty special as well.
Awesome views of the Bay.

    Our favorite restaurant is our go-to spot for amazing food, friendly and attentive staff, and a relaxed atmosphere. On weekends, they even have fantastic live music. This place satisfies all our cravings at once! ❤️

    Usually great food .My Sons steak was great as was my wife's pulled pork dish. However my steak was virtually un eatable. Rump steak that was so tuff it was nearly impossible to chew or cut . Mushroom sauce very average.

    Was a complete letdown. won't be returning, & wouldn't recommend it to anyone looking for a dec... Jul. 2024 • Family recently dined at Slow Smoke Bistro and had one of the most disappointing experiences ever. We ordered the family board for $125 and what a let down!! We were expecting a flavorful and tender aray of smoking tender meats but Instead, what I got was dry and tasteless meat. I'm not sure if they realised you are meant to actually season meat. For $125 we expected a little more than what we got but then if the food had been decent we would not have minded. To make matters worse, the customer service was abysmal. The staff was rude and not helpful at all When I tried to bring up the issues with the brisket, they were dismissive and made no effort to rectify the situation. Just replied that they were not rude but busy. However there was only 2 tables occupied, would hate to see it during peak service. We attempted to contact the owner to give feedback which we did state we were not looking for anything in return but they just got offended.

    So we reached out to you in 3 ways but you didn’t respond. Not sure what you are trying to achieve when you apparently don’t want anything. The brisket is literally crusted in salt and pepper and if that isn’t sufficient there is salt and pepper on the table. We received multiple compliments and 5 star reviews about the very same meal you had on the same day Your initial message to us was such a thinly veiled threat to expose us to your 45k followers of this mysterious page that we can’t find anywhere, that we debated replying at all. As it stands we are comfortable if you take your patronising patronage elsewhere

    Great vibe due to friendly staff, live music and decor. Incredible baby back ribs and steak (rated 100%) Cheeseburger wasn’t good though, but otherwise a wonderful place all round 😊
