Came here for a xmas work get together.
Place is nice and clean and we got a table for 7 by the window overlooking the water and pool,stunning view.
We fumbled a bit not knowing if we sit and order or order first .figured it out.
Place was a bit dark for lunch time,not yet packed. Aircons looked to be on but we were all still sweating it out so comfort during lunch wasnt pleasing.
Friend and I chose the $29 seafood basket ,sounded appetising on the board of daily specials. Lots to choose from tho.
Took almost half an hour to get our food. Others at the table got their thai salad and burgers way before us.
Drinks we got from the bar ,cold and enticing to sweat it out with lack of aircon on a very hot day.
Finally got our plate of seafood tho,we did expect a basket.
Small pieces of fish were nicely done and cooked well. Chips were delish but the other things on our plate we both felt the same about. The calamari was like chewing rubber bands,so we left the rest of that,some weird purple skin stuff in batter that was also too chewy to palate. Small full octopus in batter deep fried ,just tasted like batter and oil and nothing else,prawns were small and tasteless, didnt taste fresh.
Very disappointed in our food. We did tell the waitress and she gave us a voucher for a free coffee or drink on our next visit which was pointless as we arent close to use it
Staff were lovely tho. Since upgrades I would have thought the aircon would at least worked. Place started getting crowded as we were leaving 2 hours later.
Its a great place for views and maybe we got an off day. Wont be going back in a hurry. Parking isnt great and might have to walk a fair way to find a space. The 2 points are for the great view and the lovely apologetic waitress

Approximate cost: $29
