The view from this place is worth having a meal at! With saying that, the meals are amazing anyway. I feel the prices are really good for such quality and of course the view. Staff are great only neg I can give is that they need to update their chairs, bit uncomfortable, but that is being very picky, they are a great restaurant
This place has an amazing view of the beach, which is one of the reasons why I go here quite often. The food is also very tasty and the prices are reasonable.
Went here for valentine’s day one year and it was really nice! We had a table outside which had a nice view of Frankston beach! The food was actual really nice and affordable! Would go more often if I lived close by :)
Well presented food. Great prices. The sun was a bit harsh but I reckon I should have thought to bring sunglasses, it was worth it for a magnificent dinner with a sunset view over the bay.
Delicious food and good selection available for all dietary needs. Somewhat pricey, but as to be expected from seaside restaurant with great views!
a great experience. The location and views are mind blowing. You can even watch the sunset if you're there at the right time. And the price is very easy on the pocket for what you get food wise
Love going to waves sitting on the deck looking out on the sea having a drink nice food.The girls that work there are very very nice friendly staff.The young girl manger she is so good at her job very friendly I go there she always loves a chat.

My husband and I had lunch at this beachfront restaurant on our most recent visit. We just loved sitting in the outside area taking in the beautiful amazing views, it was so relaxing.
Our meals were absolutely delicious. We started with a dozen oysters kilpatrick, so fresh and quite large. For mains my husband had to order the seafood basket and he really enjoyed it. I had chicken breast wrapped in proscuitto and it was filled with cream cheese and semi dried tomatoes, my mouth is watering just thinking about it. We could not possibly fit in dessert, as much as I wanted to, but I did like the look of the 'mars bar cake'. I think I would have exploded if I had ordered it, it really was tempting.
I think the prices were quite reasonable as our meals were fabulous and you cannot forget the view.
A wonderful relaxing atmosphere, delicious quality food and friendly attentive staff.
Will definitely return.

Delicious Fabulous Food!! Quite expensive but well worth every penny especially when the view overlooks the bay! Staff are friendly and willing, making sure you are comfortable and have everything you need. Lovely place for friends or a red hot date! Can be very busy at times so best to book!
Located on the foreshore of frankston beach, it has the most beautiful views of the beach and port Phillip bay. Food is very nice and reasonable prices. You can also hire the place out for a wedding
The views at this restaurant is spectacular. It make you just want to jump out the window and go for a swim. The food here is lovely. However, when we came here one time . The three of us got our meals at separate times and couldn't eat together. That's the little down fall. This place is also s,all so it's always recommended to book.
Beautiful location for a restaurant - sitting there looking over the sea. I haven't been thrilled with the food or service. Not particularly friendly or anything particularly interesting menu wise. But I have returned for the whole experience and also lack of other good restaurants in the area. If you don't want to go far, go to Waves
Food is average in quality and above average in price. As one of a party of nine not related, the establishment refused to split the bill which made paying difficult and were quite rude about it. We continue to move to a cashless society and many of us use cards for many things, I use cards for most transactions. The establishment was about third full for Saturday lunch. Can they really afford to be so rigid? I would not encourage us to meet at Waves on the Beach again. A previous meeting with the group of ladies I was with totaled 35 people and bill splitting was not a problem. That's the type of restaurant we should patronize in the future, that is an establishment happy to have our business and not make it difficult to settle the bill.

I went here with my family and it wasn't overly busy, we sat out on the decking amongst other people. The view and the sun was nice we waited 20 minutes for our orders to be taken and then over an hour for our food. We asked several times for updates and they said it was coming. When it came out it was cold and poorly presented. We ate and quickly left, never to return. Rude staff, poor service and cold food.
Amazing night out for my mother's 60th birthday. The views are beautiful, food amazing & service friendly. Everyone on the table of 16 couldn't believe how tasty the food was. They also commented on the generous size. Real value for money. We will be back.

We had a lovely waitress serving us. She had moved to the area from USA and she couldn't be any more attentive. She made our night a really lovely experience for my special date. Food was great and we were quite happy with the final bill as we didn't hold back and indulged on quite a bit of food, wine and champagne!
Approximate cost: $25
Lovely location with great views. A little bit of extra care and attention from all staff could have made the experience fantastic.
We went for our anniversary and had an enjoyable time, however the small things like, food stuck to my knife, fish overcooked and dry and the wait staff a little slow to take orders, clear plates etc.
Overall the experience was ok, food well presented and a really nice setting. Huge potential for the business to be thriving with some extra attention to detail.
Approximate cost: $25-30
my mind boggles,as to why out of nine out 10 visits the balcony with the view and outside option has been closed.
A little wind doesn't hurt anyone.very curt young rude wait person,said to me,too windy!!!
rubbish,and I have a diploma in weather patterns etc.Made to sit inside with the sun burning my face and a very crowded dining room,that could have been less crowded if the balcony was sitting meals.Asked to move to a table of four and was told it was booked out,no one ever turned up.
Music overhead piped throughout was simply annoying also.
this location has a wonderful view,and I have experienced the joy of the balcony,once!
Not once has a wait person offered the vegan or gluten free menus.
The seafood basket was simply too flash fried and too oily
Coffee was nice and dessert selection a little on the boring side,(cafe style)
Shame pineapple juice wasnt available.
Shall return for for the view,and other menu items are nice,cappucino was good also.

Dined with a group of 10 on a Friday night. Took 15mins to get asked if we'd like drinks. Then another 15mins before ordering. Took almost an hour to receive meals. My meal was not very nice, dry and lacked flavour, other meals were ok but not brilliant. The service was terrible. Our orders were taken by shouting across the table and because we were at the end of the table we were ignorged by staff for drink orders and clearing of the plates. The only good thing about Waves on the beach is the view from inside looking out to the beach.
Approximate cost: $24
We went here on a deal, and were looked after pretty well. The meal was lovely, and cooked perfectly, so no complaints on that front. The service was adequate, nothing extraordinary. The venue itself was quite loud, which was surprising, and the young children running wild, although not the fault of the venue, was a downside. We'd head back there if we were in the area, but not in a rush.
The view is great. The sizes of the meals are larger than what I would expect and tasted very good. The waiter you could tell was inexperienced, she served people that came in after us and we had to asked to be served. But hey everyone has to learn. Relaxed place to have lunch.
Beautiful place, location is perfect, so serene. Although we went on cold, winters night, it made for a lovely, romantic evening. Food was absolutely delicious, serving sizes were more than adequate and of high quality. Most impressed by the service. Looking forward to returning there in summer
Food was delicious, would have been even better if served hot. We saw it sitting there for a few minutes before it was brought out to us. Lovely view, nice place for a function.
Waves on the beach certainly has the BEST location in Frankston, but two occasions of dining there, and one occasion of being turned away, has seemed to marr my opinion. Neither dining occasion were we permitted to eat outside on their beautiful deck overlooking the beach. It was baffling. That is their selling point, yet they fail to utilize it. The food though it looks good, is quite average and priced slightly high for what it is worth. We had a pleasant server the first time, but the second time, the older woman was curt and quite offputting. I felt as if I was bothering her by ORDERINGS FOOD! The third trip to the restaurant was on a Friday evening, lovely 30+ weather, sun had yet to set and we were turned away as they were closing. There were people still dining, and though we mentioned that we would only have wine and dessert, they would still not accept the request. Seemed like a poor effort for a place that could be so much more...if they just let it be!

A great restaurant to spend a summer evening at. The food is great and with a good quality bottle of wine, even better

Had my birthday party here & everything was just perfect, food, service, comfy chairs & spectacular views. Will definitely be going back.

This restaurant is aptly named as it "Waves on the Beach" As it is literally on the beach. Fantastic location with great views.
The service is somewhat hit & miss and the food is alright, so for a reasonable priced evening with a great atmosphere head down to Waves.
Approximate cost: $18
The location is great! We sat out on the deck at sunset. Was beautiful!
However, the service was not at all good! It took ages to get our meals and drinks from when we ordered them and they added things to our bill which we did not order. If we didn't look at it properly we would have been ripped off!
Overall, the food is good, but don't go if you are in any hurry to do anything afterwards!
Approximate cost: $25
Great place - the food can be fantastic at times, but then other times it's just average. The choc hazelnut brownie is my favourite. The view is amazing - have seen dolphins swimming by while enjoying my arvo tea.
I really like this place. The menu was good and there were lots of things i would have picked to eat. The staff were good and helpful when asked. My meal was lovely and the location was good too.
Great place to catch up with friends and have a feed. The views are fantastic, they help you unwind from a hectic day.
Basic menu nothing over the top but something for everyone. Service is great friendly staff to assist any of your needs.
You may have to book Friday & Saturday evenings to get a seat very popular.
