This is our second outing at The Ettalong and the food, service and ambience were all excellent. We had the Seniors fish and chips or chicken schnitzel and the servings were huge. Our party of 14 was really looked after by the staff who cleared the tables promptly but were pretty unobtrusive. Great experience.

A nice neighbourhood spot. I popped in for a late breakfast and the eggs were cooked just right. The staff were really friendly and made sure my coffee was topped up without me having to ask. A very relaxed visit.

Stopped in for a pub lunch. The rump steak was spot on, and the beef cheeks just fell apart. Way better than your average pub meal.

The Eggs Benedict was a generous serve, lots of Hollandaise and the bacon was cooked just right. Really hit the spot. I was in a comfy booth too, which made for a nice, relaxed breakfast.

A solid spot for a catch-up. The Blat was good, and Indy at the bar really knew his stuff with the drinks.

The kids&#39; pizza was a real highlight for me. You could tell the ingredients were super fresh, and they used a nice whole-wheat base. It&#39;s great to see a place offering healthier options for little ones. The whole meal felt really wholesome.

Booked for a work team dinner of 15. The set menu was around $65pp, which seemed fair. Food came out together and hot for the whole table, no small feat. Portions were decent, everyone left full. The service was smooth, no fuss.

It&rsquo;s was a combined 16th birthday with my son and his best friend, absolutely brilliant, couldn&rsquo;t fault it at all, food amazing and speed of service brilliant

The staff were so nice with our big group! They shuffled tables around without any fuss, and the waiter remembered our drink orders. Made it feel relaxed even when we were a bit of a handful.

That Golden Gaytime fried ice cream was a fun way to finish. The warm, crispy shell with the cold ice cream inside just hit the spot. A bit sweet for me, but still a good time.

Wow! What a great evening to celebrate  my wife&rsquo;s birthday.  We were served with a carefully crafted unique 5 course menu with great wine. A personal touch from the owner made it very special for us, and it didn&rsquo;t even break the bank! We&rsquo;ve already made plans to go again.  Highly, highly recommended!!

Just the spot to unwind after a ride. The hot chocolate was exactly what I needed, really rich and warming. The staff were so friendly and made it a very comfortable stop.

Food was brilliant, the staff were friendly and the atmosphere is always great. Went to the drag bingo night which was great fun and laughs all round

Steak wasn&rsquo;t worth the $38 each. Bland and not appetising.Asked for Medium got well done.No condiments.Had to go up and order at the bar where as other patrons got their orders taken at the table.Over priced Meals.

Outstanding! Great food, it&rsquo;s great that they have vegan options. Pleasant decor, good music, yummy mocktails.  They&rsquo;re also very accommodating of people with special dietary requirements and food intolerances. 10/10.

The new chef is a game changer! Food came out super fast even on a busy lunch, perfect for a quick catch-up with friends.

As a member, I appreciate the exceptional service and the thoughtful menu options that cater to dietary restrictions, showcasing the restaurant&#39;s commitment to guest satisfaction.

Was a nice little Suprise, highly recommended and will defiantly be back . For the price this is such a good hightea, food variety was good and sufficient, offer of more te would be nice though as tea pots quiet smal

The staff are always so friendly. Our server tonight was especially welcoming, which really made the evening.

Lovely family owned/run restaurant, great food and wonderful service. we&rsquo;ve been visiting for years and will continue to recommend. recently renovated but still the same friendly welcome.

The service was great, the staff were very friendly. The food was absolutely delicious. The only downside I would say is the servings were quite small for the price.
