I visited this place on Tuesday the 27th Dec and had not a bad dinner. The food was good although oily. Had the spaghetti allo scoglio which was fantastic apart from being drowned in oil and my partner had the pizza which was slightly overcooked. The tiramisu was disgusting. They say its homemade but the coles packet version from the fridge is better and with their desserts being almost $12 the coles version is 1/3rd of the price....coffee??? do not bother ordering, burnt milk and i dont think the coffee machine had been cleaned in a week. Revolting. Service? could possibly be better if the waiters spoke clearer english, the gentleman serving us could barely understand our order. Saying that though, the manager kept yelling at the staff and the lady who acts as a host would try and entice people by asking them 'how about dessert?' or if they would walk off she would say 'do you like the big banana?' which i found inappropriate.....if your coming here for food you may enjoy - but be warned...coffee and service is very poor!!!!

We come here at least once a week and the staff are wonderfull, on busy nights it is a bit slow but you cant blame them for that, they are a popular restaurunt, as we have made friends with many other regulars. Will keep going back

Been there once. Hightlights are the seafood. Perfectly cooked and served in decent portions. Will re-visit.

Their food is not bad, service is average but acceptable. However, for the price tag they ask, it is more than what they delivered. I wouldn't think its worth it.
