Sat in the Sugarfish cocktail bar section of the restaurant. Stunning cocktails. The Odd Botanicals is my new #1 drink. Service was amazing too. Can tell the staff have a passion for what they do. Five stars.

Staff attentive & the starters were excellent. Unfortunately the fish served for the mains was very poor. No taste, rubbery texture & looked as though it had been frozen & thawed several times! 4 of our party had various fish dishes & all had the same comments. Even basa from the local fish shop has tasted better!

Excellent Service, Mediocre Food
The entree (salt and pepper squid) were tough, chewy and almost tasteless until I started coating them with the gooey reduction they lay in. The sirloin was likewise tough and only flavoured by its gravy, while accompanying chips were soft and almost mushy. That all said, the service was excellent, the cleanliness was topnotch and the ambiance seems designed for large, loud groups. I so wanted to give this restaurant a better score, but there are some things you can't ignore.
Regrettably, you can get a larger, tastier steak and chips from the Crows Nest Hotel
