    We dined for lunch at Water Street Kitchen and enjoyed a delightful culinary experience. The steaks were cooked to perfection—tender, juicy, and flavorful, quickly becoming the highlight of the main courses. The chicken dish was equally impressive, seasoned well and succulent, with just the right balance of flavors. The snapper stood out with its crisp skin and fresh, delicate taste, showcasing the restaurant’s skill with seafood. To finish, the sticky date pudding was a true treat. Warm, rich, and generously served with their own ice cream, it was the perfect sweet ending to a wonderful meal. Overall, as has always been case, Water Street Kitchen again provided excellent service and an other memorable dining experience. We look forward to returning and trying more from their new menu!

    Water Street is my favourite restaurant when visiting Bundaberg, it never disappoints and was the perfect choice to celebrate my birthday with friends. Food and service is outstanding. Mocktails are to die for.

    Stuffed zucchini flower for entree was outstanding.great flavour and the lightest tempura batter I have ever tasted. Crab lasagne delicious but I suggest to the chef that he/she warm the serving plates well, before serving it as it cooled extremely quickly. A delicious dark chocolate dessert and A sparrkler for my birthday was a lovely touch. The cheapest French champagne on the menu was excellent. We sat in a beautiful garden setting and staff were very attentive but not intrusive.

    I’ve been several times and the food is always oustanding. This time we tried the breakfast menu and I was slightly disappointed as the eggs were overdone (solid yolk) and the dish had chilli jam in it but I could not taste any chilli, Only minor issues but was a bit of a surprise as normally everything is spot on. Perhaps there is a different chef doing brekky?

    Fabulous night out. Food spot on, service attentive, drinks delicious, and the ability for an our large group to be able to sit and laugh and enjoy each other’s company with split bill at the end? Perfection! Thanks team.
