    We could not fault our lunch experience at Elwood Bathers this week. The location cannot be beaten, the decor is tasteful, the staff are extremely friendly and welcoming, knowledgeable and professional. Wine by the glass prices, are pretty high but the wines were good. Meals were all reasonably sized and were delicious. I even received one of their beautiful candles as a gift for the occasion we were celebrating. Highly recommended and absolutely nothing to fault!! Thanks guys 😊

    Fabulous lunch with family to celebrate my birthday. Wait staff were engaging and professional. Food was lovely, especially the tuna tartare. Disappointed that 3 wines we selected were unavailable? Such a beautiful location and outlook regardless of weather.

    The food is always delicious. The new Chocolate Mousse (probably to share) just added to the menu is very delicious. Soo delicious that I could eat the whole dessert without even sharing. The staff are always so obliging, friendly and helpful. Thanks to Daniela and Peter for making our last visit perfect. The beach and water looked glorious in the winter sunshine, and the dogs enjoyed their beacch time with very few people. What a relaxing delectable afternooon.

    Excellent food. The kingfish carpaccio entre has become our favourite. One of our party had the Fish n'chips, and the comment was 'best ever'. The Fiano was very pleasant and good value. Cocktails were excellent, again with our guests very complimentary. We have rediscovered this restaurant after it changed name, and we will be back soon.
