   We were so impressed with everything on our night out at Lagoon. We booked and arrived in good time. The restaurant was very busy but well worth the little wait we had. The maitre d' was efficient and welcoming. We took a little while to make up our minds as everything sounded lovely. Our food was delicious, such good flavours. My husband who notices music more than I do said how perfect the music was to create a good ambience. We really enjoyed our evening and will return. Definitely a special night out - Keat is a brilliant chef!

   Lagoon Dining was our first choice for a venue to meet up with an old friend for lunch. Having dined here, we knew we wouldn’t go wrong. The restaurant was full on that day, and with favourable weather for an outdoor seating, we asked for a change in the reserved indoor seating. This was immediately accommodated. We ordered Hot and Shredded Potato with Chingkiang Vinegar, Fried Chicken White Pepper Togarashi, Silken Tofu Slices, Steamed Humpty Doo Barramundi, O’Connor Beef Short Rib and a bowl of Steamed Rice. All fresh and exquisitely prepared. They were paired with wine recommended by our wait staff. The food and service was top notch and value for money. The flavours were unique and interesting. It is a great place for meeting or a lovely afternoon/evening out where great food accompanies great friends and family. The trio of us left with a happy tummy.

   The new additions to the menu are great additions to the high standards and quality of this top class restaurant. Service is impressive and all round ambiance continues to impress. We cannot recommend any higher, superior and great 👌👏 Cheers Steve K

   Attentive personal service and the food was beyond compare. The restaurant was full but did not feel at all crowded. The noise level was low and so you could actually hold a conversation at your table yet not overhear other tables. A very pleasant dining experience.

   Excellent is the only word to start describing the experience here. It's hard to find a place that truly stands out from others. The service is second to none and the place is cozy and inviting. The dining room was full and the staff did not skip a beat, consistently delivering warm, engaging and genuine interaction throughout the evening. From the moment you are greeted to the time you leave the team make you feel welcome. The food is delicious and inspiring. We were recommended to order the Feed Me menu. That hit the spot perfectly. The pickled baby cucumbers were my favourite dish even though it's really hard to pick a favourite. I cannot recommend Lagoon Dining highly enough and I'm looking forward to coming back very soon.

   Yet again, a fantastic experience. Staff are top notch. Service was efficient, friendly, and knowledgeable. Each dish was presented to us with a generous explanation. Loving the new menu additions. Can’t wait to be back!

   Why on earth would you pay a similar price (perhaps a tiny tiny less) to eat ordinary when you could have seriously great food. I traveled an extra 10 mins and paid an extra $10 and got a 100000 times better meal and experience. #dontsettleforless

   We dined at the bar of Lagoon Dining this evening, what an experience!! From the moment we walked in we were greeted with a warm friendly presence. The food was outstanding and the customer service continued to impress us as the night went on. Each dish was presented with such care and expertise, I can understand why everyone is talking about this place! I will highly recommend this dining experience to every one of my friends and I will definitely book into the restaurant for my next visit!

    We enjoyed the food which was fairly high quality and interesting but the service was slow and poor. We had a booking at 6:45 but couldn’t leave until about 9:40 due to slowness in service. For the price we paid, also felt a little explanation on what the dishes were when being put on the table would have been good but felt like the person serving us didn’t have any knowledge about or interest in the food being served.

    Hi Linda, Chris here, I'm one of the owners of Lagoon Dining. As the person who served you most of the evening it's disappointing and confusing to read your review. On arrival, I did spend time at your table highlighting the 'signature' dishes and explaining the menu structure in detail, including answering your questions around portion sizes. You ordered multiple snacks, wok dishes, mains and dessert. Dish introductions were provided when each of these arrived at your table. Your first round of drinks were delivered within less then 5 minutes of you ordering and additional glasses of wine arrived to you within minutes and your table was consistently maintained throughout the evening . I have reviewed CCTV footage and you left at 9:18pm.
