This is not a steak and chips option, but more a tapas style menu. My Aunt ordered the scallops and the pate and loved both dishes. I ordered the sardines, but found they had been over brined and could only taste the salt. Big bowl of hot chips was my savour for this meal. Margaret River is obviously an upmarket, trendy area, and this restaurant fills those needs.

We ordered pork belly (side dish), barramundi fish (main course) and creme brulee (dessert) for sharing between two girls. The pork belly dish was popular and strongly recommended - and this dish was deserving of all the attention as it was unique and really good! Definitely unexpected melt-in-mouth experience and a must-try! The fish dish and the dessert however, were disappointing. The barramundi did not feel fresh (smell-wise) and I am not sure if the general clumpy texture was due to it being under-cooked or it being not fresh. It didn't help that the entire restaurant was barely lit in the evening (our table was only lit with a candle) so I couldn't really ascertain what we were eating. The dessert was just sad - it came with two components - the hot tart and cold creme brulee (pudding-ish texture). However, the tart/crumble was supposed to be hot and it turned out lightly warm, and the pudding (creme brulee) was not cold. We were really not sure what the dish was going for, and the combination did not taste very good either. Verdict: Must-try pork belly; other than that, maybe not.
