What Foodisgood likes about Bar Wat:
The restaurant is excellent. The food is good, the wine cocktails are great, there are warm fires, friendly staff, and a great host. It was the best night out in Ballarat in ages. View all feedback. What Pam B doesn't like about Bar Wat:
Having an outing with my friend last week, we decided to try the Bar Wat. We were seated, I ordered the Lamb Cutlets, these were cooked rare and came out on a wooden platter which as far as I am concerned, blood and wood are not a hygienic mix at all). My friend had the croquettes which were cooked on the outside and fridge cold and gooey in the center. For drinks I had a glass of bubbly $9.50)but was flat, obviously... View all feedback.
