      The staff were helpful, polite, couteous and friendly without being overly familiar. The food, however, was a little disappointing - bit bland and the salads were of a lesser standard than those from a 'sizzler' restaurant. The oysters kilpatrick were delicious but the cooked garlic bugs were dry. The prawns looked beautiful and were quite large but flavourless.The prawn shooters were very tasty - top points for those. The mussels were also very good. Deserts were good but the pastry on the apple slice I had was doughy and uncooked.   (See my reviews (3) - April, 2010)

      Absolutely dreadful experience here. On arrival we were given the names of our two waitresses for the evening. Pity we never got to meet them. We did not see one waitress during the entire meal. Very poor selection of food all round, from the seafood, to the salads, hot buffet and dessert. The prawns were not fresh, in fact the whole buffet looked like it had been sitting there quite a while. Would defintely not go back here. Extremely disappointed.   (sda35 - See my reviews (14) - April, 2010)

      Great welcome from Maitre D', Grant. Good range of seafood, salads, desserts and hot dishes. Restaurant decor is a tad tired however we learnt that the restaurant will soon be refurbished. Definitely worth a visit. Wine buffet also great value for money.   (See my reviews (4) - December, 2009)

      Hot rocks are so nice - I usually don't eat big red meat dishes like this, but I make an exception for this dish. It's really fun to cook your own - creates great atmosphere around the table   (Briony - See my reviews (9) - October, 2009)

      Wow what an experience, I enjoyed a very nice meal, great service friendly staff, sometimes a bit too friendly maybe...but Great food and value for money, bit expensive, but worth it. not somewhere I could eat all the time because of the price, but will be back at some point I am sure....   (See my reviews (35) - May, 2009)

      The Seafood Buffet was overpriced. Large range of food just not that much seafood. Moreton Bay Bugs are only available on the weekend.

      Charged us $4 for our 4yo which was good. Adults price was in the high $40's (we can't remember exactly)

      Staff were great and the Restaurant itself is large and has great views   (fknoath - See my reviews (5) - April, 2009)

      Staff were extremely attentive and the food was fantastic. Huge choice of seafood both cold and hot both just as tasty with each kept cold or hot as required.   (See my reviews (3) - December, 2008)

      Sorry, we can't say to many compliments, the place still in need to be working on.   (See my reviews (3) - November, 2008)
