The tradewinds restaurant offers indoor and outdoor dining with magnificent views of the Swan River. The food is good and the atmophere is relaxed yet has a 'fine dining' feel. I was also impressed with the breakfast buffet, which is reasonably priced even on public holidays, always open, and the staff who are happy to take bookings for breakfast from outside the hotel and allow you to pay separately.

Approximate cost: $25

Delicious, well priced dinner. I had the Bruschetta which was MASSIVE but a bit weird because it had a lot of bacon on it. I've also had the lasagne, which is delicious and also massive. When you book, make sure to ask if you can sit in the front section - the back section is where large groups usually sit and it has plastic chairs. Very crowded and noisy, but a lot of the tables are round making conversation a lot easier in this environment.

I LOVE Korean BBQ. Order some meats and cook them yourselves on the burner in the middle of the table, it's really fun. This place could have better ventilation as I came out with hair stinking of Beef Bulgogi (BBQ beef, not necessarily so bad). The food is not as good as some other Korean places I have been, but is ok for the price (all Korean in Perth is expensive compared to Korea anyway, they have to import all the marinades). Hopefully visiting Arirang inspires you to try Korean BBQ in your frypan at home!

We sat on polished tree stumps upstairs, overlooking the cafe strip in Fremantle - nice location and ambience! The pizza was fresh and tasty (I had the buffalo mozarella margherita - so much awesome cheese!) The service was friendly too. In speaking to the manager I also discovered that they are doing BBQs on the balcony every Sunday night in summer, which sounds like fun.

Approximate cost: $20

I've been here for breakfast. They do a pretty good buffet (for the price I would have also expected pancakes/waffles though, which they didn't have). On the day I went it was Sunday and it was packed - it seems too small to accommodate the number of rooms in the two hotels that it needs to cater for. The service was friendly but we had to wait in line for half an hour to be seated.

I really like this place even now that it's under new management and a new name. The decor is ocean-chic and it creates a wonderful, romantic ambience. The service is helpful and efficient. The food was tasty - my husband had the fish and chips, and I had seafood linguine, which unfortunately did not agree with me but this does and will eventually happen to you with seafood!

For the quality of food, I felt the prices were fair. The service was excellent and the dishes were tasty and delightfully surprising. I had an Asian noodle dish - the tastes that played in my mouth were indescrible! I would definitely go here again - the only problem is that I have tried, but they are frequently booked out.

As one of Perth's only revolving restaurants, the views here are superb, especially at night. The food is nice but in minute size portions and quite expensive. The service is flawless. Excellent for a romantic night out, but don't go here famished or you'll have to spend $300 to get full.

I visited in early 2008 and found the food here to be excellent. The manager was very rude however and did not make his obscure booking "rules" clear over the phone and insisted that there was a minimum spend of $70 per person when we tried to settle the bill, even though no such policy was stated on the menu or restaurant signage. I was not impressed at all at the way this situation was handled. In short, excellent food, but the service we received on the night was less than satisfactory.

Excellent location, river views, ambience, service and food quality and presentation. I would recommend this for any special occasion! My only qualm was that our coffee order was one cappuccino short, and even though we told the waiter the missing coffee never arrived at the table and we were then charged for it.
