Came here with our international guest from the UK. The venue is lovely. We all had mostly had the Tuna Tartare starter and it was delicious. Quite a big serve and can be easily shared. The waitress did warn us but we did our own...thing. Main was a mixture of Steak, Fish and Chip and Fish Pie. The fish pie was lovely it is more of a chowder with a pastry on top. For dessert the table order the choc peanut butter pie, meringue and scoops of ice cream. There was not an empty plate. All in all the meals were great and the service was great. Can't understand why so empty, it's a beautiful location. I highly recommend this restaurant, it was lovely with a great view.
When the sun is out, and captain Baxter has a live singer, you can sit on the top deck looking out towards the ocean, life doesn't get much better.
Food is over priced and very ordinary. menu is limited with marked up prices. Had the BBQ swordfish with goan curry @ $38.. was expecting something spectacular.. instead it was far from anything .. 3 pieces of semi dried swordfish with curry sauce and brown rice. it's more of a drinks venue than for food.
The food is overpriced and quite ordinary. The menu is limited, with inflated prices. I ordered the BBQ swordfish with Goan curry for $38, expecting something impressive, but what I received was quite disappointing. It consisted of three pieces of semi-dried swordfish served with curry sauce and brown rice. This place feels more like a bar than a restaurant focused on food.
It 's pretty hard to argue with a place that has THOSE views over St Kilda beach. With an outdoor terrace, formal dining space with sexy leather booths and a more casual bar area, there 's a lot going on here and surely a place that you will want to spend an hour or two. The Tommy Collins cocktail was refreshing, if perhaps a little sweet. Served over mountains of crushed ice, it tasted like a lemonade icy pole. Some people will love this, but I 'll be looking to the other Cocktails next time there 's plenty to choose from, many with a slight twist using local Australian ingredients. Staff are still finding their feet and learning the menu (case in point: when choosing something from the shared menu, I would have expected to be told that the item I chose was actually only one piece and not something suitable for sharing. Bring on Summer I say, because this may just be the new place to be in St Kilda once the weather warms up.
