We really enjoyed our anniversary dinner. Food was great. Set menu for Friday night. Every dish was delicious. Cocktails were amazing too. Overlooking Terrigal beach. Balcony was covered and had louvre windows for that inside outside feel. Boiling hot day but we were comfortable with the nice sea breeze.

Came here to celebrate Mum's birthday and had a lovely experience. Staff were very friendly and attentive, both through booking process and on the night! We even had a perfect wine suggestion by one of the ladies. We came here on a Friday and had the set menu. All our entrees were amazing and so were the mains. We will definitely be back next time we are in Terrigal!

The customer service was impecable! We arrived on a 40° day and hadn't booked the air-conditioned room. As a party of 8, some of our guest were not happy with the weather. We asked one of the staff if we could change sitting area. She was so wonderful that she asked her manager if it was possible to move our party and came back and gave us the great news. Once under the aircon, everyone was happy and enjoyed the rest of their time. The food was also perfect! Cooked to perfection and lovely portions. And the wait staff were friendly and very helpful with suggestions. I would highly recommend this restaurant and look forward to returning.

Been here few times. Amazing experience overall. The food is always beautifully presented and full of flavour - you can tell real care goes into the dishes. The views are beautiful. The only downside was that the staff could have been a bit more attentive at times, especially considering the quality of the food and venue. We had to constantly seek out staff for basic things. That said, it didn’t take away from the overall experience. Would happily return and recommend it - just hoping for slightly more attentive service next time.
