Always a great feed here. Parking can be tricky on a busy night but worth the short work. I don't think there's anything on the menu that isn't fantastic.

Staff are always friendly and helpful. Service is fast.

Approximate cost: $40

First impression, We are served pretty much immediately and orders came up quickly. Food wise, we like the quality but it's a bit expensive for the portion. Nice ambience and we will come back when there is a special occasion

Used to dine here a lot but have not returned since finding a dead bug in my salad (it was attached to a lettuce leaf which obviously hadnt been washed properly). I showed the waitor only to be accused of putting it there myself....why would I as I hadn't even eaten more than 3 mouthfuls of my food so it served me no purpose to do so. I said exactly this to the waiter who came back with the manager who accused me of the same thing. I was horrified as was my mother and brother (we were there to celebrate my mothers birthday). They reluctantly offered to replace it and I had to wait 20 minutes by which time my mother and brother had finishes their dinner and I was no longer hungry as my mother shared half her pasta with me. They didn't even offer to give me my meal for free and when I mentioned this to them they offered to charge me half price for my meal...I was insulted by that as I didn't think I should of had to pay anything considering the horrendous service that was shown to me. I paid half for my meal and have never returned. It completely ruined our night. The bug in my food was not the issue as I wasn't overly bothered by it, but it was the horrendous customer service and the way they treated me (like a liar and a cheapskate who didn't want to pay $25 for her meal!!) Very very disappointing.

Hi Philfii, Thanks for yet another concise review. What a positively horrendous display of arrogance and ignorance from these less than professional individuals. We certainly hope you had a devise on your person that would have enabled you to take photos (for evidentiary purposes) and then proceed with a ‘formal’ complaint to the Health Department. Even more disappointing given that it was your Mother’s birthday that you were attempting to celebrate. Such a display of unprofessionalism has caused our family to place the business in question on our personal ‘Must Avoid, Unless Under New Management’ listing, as they are undeserving of our support. Thank you for the professional manner in which you composed this review, such action and detail is appreciated. Regards, Reeces

Firstly ample parking in Vic Park. Award winning for past few years

Great space for indoor and outdoor seating and dining.

Excellent variety in menu.

Great restaurant food by far. Reasonable prices, Average portion sizes.

Constantly busy, but service is great most times

Nice family environment. Will come again.

I don't go here often but whenever I do, I always get the lamb shank on mash potato as I absolutely LOVE it. You get 2 shanks which is too much for me so I take one home for lunch the next day. Slow cooked for perfection, falling off the bone. My husband normally gets a different meal each time and doesn't complain. Seats could be more comfortable but that's minor

We have been going here on and off for years. It is a great place to take friends. The food is always good. If there was one thing I would change would be it is a bit noisy but I guess that is more due to the actual building and flooring and that would be hard to change.

Get the lamb shank with potato mash. It's so big you won't be able to eat it all but you can have the leftovers for lunch the next day. I can never make my own lamb shanks this good and it's a great price, only around 25-30. You could hardly buy all the stuff in the shops for that price. i think they might have high staff turnover as sometimes they are good but other times not so good. Don't go with a big group (20 plus) as they can't really handle the capacity well unless they seat you at the back near the toilets. Small groups (6-10) are ok though, just ask not to be seated near toilets.

Approximate cost: $30

The food here is great, and the portions are just superb. It definitely fills you up and its served hot and fresh each time i go. It can get a little busy on weekends, so it may be less crowded on weekdays.

Approximate cost: $25-30

Have eaten here several times and the food has always been fabulous. The service tends to deteriorate a little when it gets busy but the staff are always polite. Great decor and always clean.

It's always good food here and the serving sizes are large. They cook their seafood nicely and don't over-do it. Sometimes the service is a little slow as they are always busy. If you want to eat here you'd better book.

Approximate cost: $28.00

This is the best food I have had in a long time. We ordered and had our food within 10 minutes. Very friendly staff who couldnt have been more helpful. Huge serving and great quality. Caters for children as well. Rustic style setting and there are at least 10 framed awards for food e3xcellence on the wall.

Approximate cost: $25.00
