Amazing experience! Food was delicious and staff were so kind.

Awesome GF food thank you definitely will be back

We booked an early sitting at Il Toscano in Long Jetty so we could secure a table inside, out of the heat of the day. The staff were friendly, and the ambiance was great. It seemed like there was quite good noise dampening in the restaurant, as we could talk to each other easily without raising our voices, despite the radio playing some lovely music, and the other tables being full. It’s a restaurant experience we haven’t had in while, as we’re rather used to being drained or strained from attempting to be heard over the noise on the floor. The food was also superb. There was gluten-free pasta for me which was cooked to perfection, but everyone was raving about the regular pasta as well, and the fluffiness of the tiramisu (which is made in the restaurant). The cocktails were also quite nice, I very much enjoyed the Hugo Spritz.

We have just had the most magnificently tasty Sunday lunch at Margaret. We didn't leave a mouthful of any of the three courses. It took a leisurely two hours which we thought was perfect timing, not rushed but we were not waiting around either. Everything was absolutely delicious. When we are in Sydney from London we now try to eat at Margaret. Previously we have eaten at Rockpool and the grill. Margaret is bright and breezy by comparison. The staff are friendly and efficient. They want to talk about the food and are very helpful with making choices from the extensive menu. The food is outstanding. For us the portions were perfect with wonderful imaginative complex flavours. We went fifty/fifty on the duck breast and grilled ocean trout and both were fantastic. We even had room for a dessert. Out of curiosity I chose the souffle pudding. I would never have thought of putting pine nuts in a dessert but it gave a great contrasting texture. The souffle was really more than I needed but I sacrificed myself and finished it. One staff member confided that although they worked there it was their favourite place to eat. We agree.

Food was nice atmosphere nice Drinks took awhile to get to us due to new staff member who had no idea how to make a cocktail. Not his fault but didn’t think Xmas eve best day to have newbie doing cocktails. Should have just stuck with normal drinks
