Great food, quick service, staff could be a touch more friendly   (JH - See my reviews (3) - October, 2008)

We stayed in the city last month for a few days right near Baia and we were so impressed with the breakfast menu especially. We loved it that much we had breakfast there every day for our whole stay.And what makes it great they were one of the few cafe's around cockle bay that were still open for breakfast late. The omlette is a must.Cooked to perfection. We also had lunch there and were not disappointed.Keep up the great work.   (October, 2008)

Gnocchi was over-cooked but was good overall.   (October, 2008)

Overall 9 - Food 9, Ambience 9, Value 9, Service 9

We are inclined to use this restaurant at every opportunity, probably averages out about 12 - 15 times per year.

Our daughter has also started to make this the venue for her and her year 12 friends.

Great "can do" attitude, and really excellent food.

Cold beer, and a more than adequate wine list.

Keep up the great work, team.   (Graeme - October, 2008)

Overall 9.5 - Food 10, Ambience 10, Value 10, Service 8

Love this place - menu is superb, view is terrific, staff are great, and we had a 3 course dinner for 2 with wine and spirits for under 150 - including a steak other places could learn from. Will stay loyal.   (See my reviews (8) - September, 2008)

Overall 9.5 - Food 8, Ambience 10, Value 10, Service 10

My friend & I had lunch here yesterday. The service was great - very friendly waiter who gave us just the right amount of attention without either ignoring us or hovering. Food arrived promptly, was hot & tasted great. I had the pizza baio made the proper Italian way with a thin crust. My friend had the lasagne. It looked a little greasy but she assured me it tasted great. My only complaint would be my drink - since when did iced tea taste like syrup?? I would definitely recommend this restaurant & I will be back again.   (September, 2008)

Overall 6.5 - Food 6, Ambience 8, Value 4, Service 8

The service was great and the view is really nice. On the other hand even I could prepare the dish I got better... Nevertheless it's worth giving a try.   (Trybik - September, 2008)

Overall 7.8 - Food 9, Ambience 8, Value 7, Service 7

Very quiet for lunch hour which was good. Nice weather plus nice service.   (September, 2008)
