    Our experience has exceeded our expectations, we were joined by another couple from overseas. The food was succulent, the service exceptional and the atmosphere was great. We look forward to our next dining at The Rocks. Thank you for making our time so enjoyable.

    Music was too loud,. had to ask twice to turn that down. No smiles to be seen , a very miserable service. Food: my r partner's d snapper was half the size of mine (for same very high price). It will be a long time before you see us again. And that after so many years frequent attendance. Sorry Robbie

    Starters were great but the seafood pasta was a bit of a let down when compared to previous visits. Served in cold plates didn’t help.

    Very, very expensive and the food was only to sporting or RSL club standard. Limited menu. No bread offered before or with food. Not even table cloths on the tables and the hard wooden chairs looked like they came out of an op shop (old, dirty, worn paint and no cushion.) To top it all off, when one of our party asked for a copy of the receipt, they discovered upon arrival home that they’d been given a receipt from another table. Really, the only things this restaurant has going for it are the wait staff (very good and cheerful), the clean rest rooms (expected anyway) and the view across the bay back towards the city and you can get that for free anyway from the pier at their carpark. Over all an expensive and utterly disappointing dining experience! Sad to say, but we won’t be back.

    We usually love eating at The Rocks, but our recent lunch experience was very disappointing. The overall level of service was “robotic” they went through the motions but without any emotion. Our pre dinner G&T was served with flat tonic. And the couple at the table right next to us were obnoxious and extremely loud, obviously trying to big note their “business” conversation.

    Everything is great apart from the seasoning of the food, insipid and bland. To compensate the overall service is excellent, and the views are amazing!
