  Went for early lunch today. Good service, nice atmosphere, value for money at $19 per adult however I left feeling super disappointed with food. Although there was a decent selection and I tried almost everything, the hot chips, lettuce, olives and icecream were my highlights. Wonder if the cooks enjoy cooking? I wouldn't serve most of the food I ate to my family. Why would you serve it to paying customers? It lacked love and flavour or tasted gross. Heaps of potential but I won't be back in a hurry. The chilled water was a winner. If you need to decide for yourself, recommend booking for an early timeslot around 11 to 11.30 for lunch before it fills up.

  Food very second rate buffet, empty dishes not replenished in a timely manner at all. Restaurant untidy and unkempt, just as were most of the guests. Very cramped tables, noisy, bad service. Wouldn't return nor recommend.

  Food was good. Oysters and Salmon outstanding. Service polite but not quite got it in keeping up with the food at the buffet or plates, cups etc available. View and setting is great. parking easy. Prices OK but good value for the big eaters which I am not.

  The variety of food was fantastic, however it’s service was a major let down. Majority of the staff didn’t hold a good “front of house service”. In this type of business working front of house and closely with the customers I expected the staff to be more friendlier even with a simple smile. We asked the staff for a high chair and it seemed like a huge effort that took time to get, in the end it was easier to do it our self. The staff’s work ethic on our night of dinning just was not at a good expectation/ standard. What got to me was smiling at the staff members and receiving nothing but a blank face.
