Ok yes the seafood is divine and the platters were amazing BUT the whole experience was chaotic due to disorganisation of the process, staff and kitchen. We had a booking for 12 noon. I eventually found a staff member who found our table (said reserved, but it had a booking on it for the next session at 2pm so no chance I could have found the table on my own). Then given menus and I had to ask how to order, as no information given by staff member. She guestured to the huge line mostly in the baking sun where you had to queue to order. Stood in the sun for 30 minutes and when I finally get to place my order and see the chaos of the kitchen you understand why the queue took so long. Only 2 people taking orders (and one of them is doing other things in between) and the most bizarre allocation of responsibilities I have ever seen in a kitchen. Food came out quickly mostly because you stood there waiting for it (again holding up the order process). Then you clear your own tables. I’m going to preempt the reply from this business by saying that this is not a complex hospitality model, you have a enough staff, you just need a total reorganisation of their responsibilities and to introduce a more streamlined process (possibly using QR codes for ordering so no one is standing in the baking sun). Despite what you think, you are running a cafe/restuarant so either make it function as such or just be a place where you pick up packs to take away. It really is that simple.

Oh my gosh, the food was amazing. Luckily I had a friend who wanted to try alot of things, so we shared Italian & Japanese Oysters to start. The smoked trout dip was sensational. Then we had the Balmain bugs w/ garlic butter… YUM… followed by the best Lobster mornay ever 🥂🦞🦪 We did this after the Broken Bay Pearl Farm Tour which was also an amazing experience. I’ll be back with more friends 🥰🍾🥂

The oysters here are really fresh and delicious. I’d love to come back next time to try the platter! Even though I visited on a weekday, there were still a lot of people. Parking was a bit limited, but I managed to find a spot without waiting too long. The downside was the dusty wind and the many flies.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ We celebrated our wedding anniversary here and couldn’t have asked for a better experience. The food was absolutely amazing—especially the seafood, which was incredibly fresh and full of flavor. The view from our table made the evening feel extra special, and the overall atmosphere was relaxed and welcoming. The seating was comfortable, and the service from the waitstaff was top-notch—friendly, attentive, and genuine. Everything from start to finish felt thoughtful and well-executed. Highly recommend this place to anyone looking for great food, great views, and great value for money. We’ll definitely be back!

Amazing oysters! Such good value for money for the dozen! The truffle butter oysters were very yummy and cooked well. Mussels were absolutely delicious! Smashed it out! And generous portion! Want to give a huge shoutout to the ladies that were working hard on the Saturday! It was very busy and some visitors had some language barriers and couldn’t find the line. But the people working were so kind and polite and so accommodating! Really appreciate their kindness! Will be back of course!
