Great spot food and service. The lobster roll had heaps of lobster, snapper ceviche was the bomb. Waiter was the best, he brought our dog a water bowl. Thanks for a really chill and excellent lunch. Went back two days later. Another great meal The worst dining experience I had in Cairns. The cocktail is basically a glass of ice water with no flavor at all. It is not hot season and a workday night, but we waited over half hour but still had nothing. The butter chicken is over $30 and it came with two tiny pieces chicken. It is not recommended. We were recommended this place by our friend back home in NZ, as she comes here when she visits her daughter in Cairns, I would eat here EVERY single day of my holiday, unbeleivable flavour!!, fresh succulent and absolute flavour punches!! Thank you!!!! STUNNNNNIIIINNNNG!!

Absolutely divine! I came here two nights in a row for vegan meals and both were delicious. I had the pad see ew and the pumpkin curry. Would love to have stayed longer to try more! The atmosphere and view over the esplanade is also 👌👌👌

Oh wow! Stunningly presented and tasty food, a culinary delightful mixture of flavours in every dish. We tried a little bit of everything from tasty bites, shared plates, main meals, sides and desserts. Ate dinner on a Thursday night, and it was packed. Thank god we turned up early at 5.30pm as by 6.30pm it was nearly full. Book if you want to make sure of a table.
