The barramundi came with a tiny amount of salad and no carbs, as a main it presented as entree size and did not fill me

We had a table for 2 on the window. The outlook is amazing and while the floor under our table hadn't been vacuumed the table was clean and the setting was nice. The staff were pleasant and attentive. The lunch menu was limited, my salmon was cooked well, my partner said his steak sandwich was ordinary. We followed up with a chocolate brownie which was very dry and for $18 was expensive. I don't feel this restaurant has taken full advantage of their location.

All food was cold I will tell the chef, no eggs ready no milk, had to ask, no cups had to ask, plates left on table not cleared at all until grey told us to go. Tried to ring them no answer phone switched off,, evening and mornig, even hotel did not pick up their phone at all. Overall quite poor really would not be recommending at all.

Good variety of dishes - we had starters with a salad and dessert, skipping the mains. Scallops were small, but pork belly was just right. Staff attentive but not hovering.
