The food was fresh and well cooked, very enjoyable. My real compliant is value for money; it is very expensive for what you get. A 'two person' basket was a one person basket (no, l don't eat too much), go down to Baldy's and get 1dz freshly shucked oysters for $16!

For our main we ordered an individual meal for 1 which included 2 George Whiting fish fillets, a battered prawn, a battered oyster & squid with crispy crunchy chips, taerare sauce & a slice of lemon. They even gave us real cultery & it included a soft drink each. Without a doubt it was the freshest, tastiest & lightly battered seafood Ive ever had. This was on Thursday 11th September 2025. I would recommend eating at the...
