Dinner Menu

If you are looking for a relaxed casual late breakfast or lunch, look no further, try our Tapa`s Plate for two (which changes daily) or for the sweet tooth, our famous Mango and Passionfruit cheesecake.

For dinner we offer a more intimate dining experience, our extensive menu caters for everyone, with an emphasis on fresh local seafood.

Come in and try one of our signature dishes, which include Mooloolaba prawn pasta or perhaps our famous seafood platter for two, not to mention our delicious BENDELE FARM ORGANIC DUCK. We have daily specials available, including the fish of the day, where we use the freshest possible local seafood and produce.
