The room service was too expensive, with a steak sandwich and chips costing $20.

The garlic bread for starters turned out to be Woolworths hamburger rolls cut up, which were dry and not enjoyable. There were no vegetarian options on the main menu, so I was offered a salad (which I declined as I can make that at home), a stir fry with rice (which seemed odd), or the ravioli from the entree menu. I chose the ravioli and requested a main size portion, but I only received nine pieces of pasta in a disappointing sauce that tasted like a mix of cream and Heinz tomato sauce. My colleague's lamb rack was served with a sickly sweet gravy and deep fried vegetables, including deep fried broccoli. The barramundi was tasty but the portion size was very small. The steaks received positive feedback. There was no drinks service throughout the meal. The creme brûlée was overly "eggy" and probably the worst I've ever had. Overall, two stars might be generous, but the steak eaters seemed content.

He had a mediocre experience at a Christmas function before and was hesitant to return, but after reading some positive reviews, we decided to give it a try. We were pleasantly surprised by the fantastic staff, delicious food, and quiet atmosphere. It was exactly what we were hoping for and we would both gladly return to Veranda.
