Was a bit hard to find were to order. We had a lovely lady help show us and seat us at a table and give menu's and explained how things worked. We asked if we could sit outside on the wharf area, that was okay as long as we paid our order first, no worries. Lovely area. Sat outside and meals were brought outside to us very quickly, great meals. Recommend to have meals. Parking: The area of the restaurant there isn't alot of parking u may have to park and walk a little Wheelchair accessibility: There is a disability park outside the other restaurant, u may need to find other parking areas
We had a fantastic experience on New Year's eve + Anniversary special dinner. The staff surprised us with a fantastic service and hospitality. The view is gorgeous and the environment is quite cozy and welcoming. We were with our kids we all had a great moment kudos to the amazing staff. This is our second time and we'll be definitely back. Recommended!
Came for birthday dinner- One of the worst “fancy” dinning experiences that We will always remember and laugh about. 1. Service -all the staff were friendly. It didn’t start off so great when we weren’t given cutlery/dishes to eat our entree and then after we asked, we weren’t given the right cutlery/dishes. We struggled a bit with what we were given. Our waiter made sure my dessert had a birthday decoration on it which was sweet! 2.View- beautiful! We caught the sunset and it was stunning! 3.Aquarium- something special and fun to look at. 4. Food- just horrible… - $6 per piece of oyster, and they were frozen oysters. I understand that sometimes produce just can’t be sourced everyday, especially after COVID but at least let us know upfront that you have no fresh oysters…. There was no warning when we ordered. I spat out the ones I ate because they tasted so bland and chewy. When we raised it as an issue, the waiter just smiled and said “oh yeah they were frozen.. was the lemon and the sauce not able to cover that up?” There was no attempt to address the issue. Also the sauce wasn’t great either but if they were fresh oysters then it wouldn’t have mattered…. This was a huge disappointment and bad oysters residue taste doesn’t just go away. Terrible start to the meal.. -chicken: this is a personal no no. The chicken we were served had the same texture as if it was raw… we believe it was cooked. It looked cooked but it felt raw when we bit into it. It felt like we were biting into crunchy fibrous flesh. Won’t pretend like we have eaten raw chicken before but the way it felt in our mouth was similar to the feeling you get when you cut into thick raw chicken breast… I couldn’t bring myself to eat it. - fish main wasn’t bad. Not great, but after the gross oysters then “raw” chicken breast, I just felt lucky my husband switched his food with my chicken breast. -seafood chowder was brilliant. - drinks- not bad, very ordinary but priced as if there were going to be fancy cocktails. -food options on the menu were very very limited. We didn’t make a fuss about anything because we know it’s not been easy since COVID and also it’s not like they were going to do anything about it. 5. Price- I think way overpriced for what we were served. It’s in a nice location with the view and the aquarium and so it’s charging at a fancy upmarket restaurant rate but unfortunately both its food and drinks were huge disappointments. 6. Parking wasn’t too easy but then we found paid public parking across the street.
I like the place ambiance was good. Server was new but he was very helpful. The food on the other hand was a bit disappointing. Ordered the pork starter and it was really REALLY dry. Taste old. Same with the beef tartare. Usually tartare is raw beef but it was already brown and didnt look fresh. I liked the chowder. The lamb was good too its a shame they serve it with frozen peas. For what I paid i was actually expecting more. But it was very average. The chefs should be more attentive.
Nice place to have a nice dinner. Tables facing the sea and the wharf are perfect ask to be seated there. We went for rissotto and lamb and both were great! Good service and nice staff.
Had an excellent meal with my parents which we all enjoyed. Staff were very friendly and attentive especially our waitress Lara who was happy to arrange a mix up meal for my elderly celiac mother. Food was delicious. Dietary restrictions: Good range for Gluten Free
- 1 full star for the creamy mushroom I ordered, tastes good and presented nicely. - Minus a star from the 3 flat whites, not enough froth, not hot enough, and presentation is… - Another star deducted from oily table but they do give you a roll of kitchen towel on the table. No napkin or serviettes - Staff delivered the food and wanting to take the table number away and whoops it dropped into my friend's salad note that the table number is not something you will clean as often as the table itself - if I am paying surcharge for a 4 star rated place I would at least make sure hygiene and barista is up to its rating.
Great atmosphere and seating by the pier. The fish and chips were average but the fresh oysters were great! A bit pricey though
I can imagine that a place like this on a sunny day would reward you with stunning views, however, this was a dreary drizzly day but I still received a pleasant view. All the staff I met were friendly and polite and my waitress Kamila was fantastic, from the get go she updated me on the fact that a large group had just placed their orders before mine so there would be a small wait. I appreciated the upfront honesty but I was in no rush so it wasn’t an issue. The wait wasn’t long before I was greeted with my dishes a half dozen of the Paroa Bay Oysters and the Ika Mata Island style raw marinated fish in coconut cream, lime juice and chilli with fried bread. The oysters were good, but that Ika Mata was a sheer delight though the chillies didn’t offer any heat, I still enjoyed the dish and that fried bread? I could hit that all day, sooo good. While I’m not a dessert guy I couldn’t help but overhear Kamila’s enthusiasm as she described the desserts at another table, my curiosity was piqued. I had the Key Lime Tartlet and an Irish Coffee. Both were a joy. Compliments to the chef for the Ika Mata, and thanks Kamila and crew for your service, I look forward to another visit hopefully with better weather
What an incredible venue, such friendly helpful service staff. Food was perfect and incredible! Can't recommend Zane Grey's any higher for an event, helpful and they listen and deliver. The most astounding setting and atmosphere! Thanks Team!
