Came here with 12 of us on a Saturday. Food all landed at once, hot and decent sized. Staff kept it together despite the rush. We waited a bit for a table but that&#39;s expected. Solid spot for a group feed.

Pork tacos were solid, decent size too. Chips came out fresh and salty, good for dipping. Mango smoothie was a bit off though, kinda weird texture, not what I expected. Still, the flavors worked and it hit the spot after being out in the sun. Fine spot if you&#39;re nearby and want something quick.

Right on the sand, can&#39;t beat the view. Coffee was solid. Service was hit or miss though&mdash;one guy was great, the other looked like he&#39;d rather be anywhere else.

Been coming here most Mondays for a while now. Worked through a good chunk of the menu and honestly it&#39;s all been pretty solid. Nothing fancy but it hits the spot when you just want a decent feed without thinking too hard. Place gets busy around 7 though, so we try to grab a table a bit earlier.

Came for the vibe, ended up loving the ceviche. Proper fresh, light, not overdressed. Garden area&rsquo;s got a good mix of seating &mdash; grabbed a high table but the floor cushions looked tempting too. Place was busier than I expected for a Tuesday, but service kept up fine. Would go back just for that dish.

The bacon butty was solid&mdash;good value and pretty tasty. Lemon cake was light and fresh as well. Seating felt a bit cramped though.

The 1kg mussels pot was the highlight&mdash;big, plump, and that light creamy wine sauce was spot on. Scotch fillet was tender too. Staff sorted us out quickly.
