Amazing food and ambiance, and great service! I definitely recommend the king crab linguine, it was one of the best pasta I’ve ever had! The ocean trout was also delicious, with a nice crispy skin. We loved the duck fat chips as well.

What a great place for sitting on the balcony and watching the busy street life below. From the greeting at the top of the stairs, we knew it was busy yet the greeting was friendly and she found us a table which was surprising - we expect to wait at peak times. If you love oysters and a great atmosphere, this is your place. The oysters are fresh and juicy yet very expensive, I still thought they were worth it. It’s amazing the service you receive when you are friendly first and show interest. All the staff were friendly and we enjoyed every part of the Balcony accept the price.

A must do food and drink experience. Staff are super friendly and accommodating. Food is delicious. Oysters are fantastic. King crab and lettuce tacos, and grilled split king prawns are a great share for two people. Highly recommend "The Gatherer" limited edition beer from local Stone & Wood brewery.

Great food and service on our dinner booking. Atmosphere is a great, perhaps a little noisy if you’re looking for somewhere calm or for an intimate dinner. We had a great time though and enjoyed the vibe. The crab linguine is a must order! Absolutely divine.

Outstanding experience. Head waitress found us a table without reservation. Pacific and Sydney Rock Oysters were super fresh and first rate. All produce clean, authentic flavours and perfectly prepared. Ocean trout and salad a stand-out. Chef Jordan delivered desserts personally. Highly recommended!

Really lovely venue with a great atmosphere. Had some of the best oysters I’ve had in a while, great Bloody Mary’s, anchovies were beautiful too. King crab and lettuce tacos and crumbed fish tacos were a bit on the bland side and didn’t really measure up compared to the other stuff. We found service to be a bit disjointed — 3 different waitstaff coming up every few moments to take orders/check in. Would order with one then another would come to take our order moments later, then the other, so we were constantly being interrupted to say “we already ordered with your colleague” because they weren’t communicating with one another. Meant at times when we were deciding on a next dish we barely got a chance to look at the menu again before another staffer, then another, then another, interrupting us and rushing us to order. Then at the end when I went to pay, the one that was pushiest of them all even solicited us for a tip. Kind of rubs you the wrong way when service staff don’t focus on giving good service and then feel daring enough to suggest you tip. I feel if some of these kinks can be ironed out it would really be a top notch venue. It was almost there.
