Friendly customer service, nice atmosphere. its on the fine-dining side of things, so expect to pay $50 for a main ans side combo. My eye fillet and king prawns were lovely.

Awesome food, drinks and view. Try the tomato juice and kombucha.

Where do we start? Have been coming to restaurant for about 12 years. After previous change of ownership and a bad experience after only ever having good experiences previously we should have know better but....we thought maybe it was a one-off and gave it another go. What a mistake! Staff that didn't really care. Felt like we were intruding when we arrived. No nice greeting or welcome.Ordered the $79 paella dish, minus chorizo being non-meat eaters. Assured there would no chorizo. After a 30 min wait it arrives WITH chorizo. Get attention of wait staff, send dish back. Dish returns 5 mins later - query the speed to cook a fresh dish and told that it's the same one we sent back and that we were wrong - it wasn't chorizo but smoked paprika! Begged to differ and showed the offending piece of meat on my plate. Dish gets taken back and 30 mins later a new one arrives. Clearly all the key seafood pieces (prawns, scampi etc) were from the previous plate as they were cooked to rubber and inedible. Rice was dry and bland. Evening was spoiled and couldn't finish dish. Left large amount of rice but no query as to why. Made to feel that it was our fault for complaining and the we didn't know what chorizo looked like. Then to add insult to injury when paying the bill (oh, they so kindly dropped the $5 bread charge!!) they pulled out a plate showing us the difference between chorizo and what was supposedly on our plate. I politely advised that what was on our plate was NOT on this 'sample' plate and looked very different. We felt so bad that when we left we vowed NEVER to return again. So sad given that we own a property in Apollo Bay and we like to go out for a nice meal whenever we get the chance to come down. Will definitely strike this place off our list and will tell all our friends to do the same. Whatever happened to customer service??

Ate there last weekend, delicious kangaroo burger, great local white wine, service(waitress) was awesome and fun. Don't know what all the complaints are about. Oh, and great coffee
