Awesome burgers, check it out…read more This new addition to the umina food scene is a diamond in the rough. Great burgers with a funky 80s bmx theme. Our personal favourite is the chicken burger, aka "the creep", generous chicken fillet on a soft bun with coleslaw and sauce! They also do a great cheese burger, or a double bacon cheese burger, "the boss" if you are keen for a big feed. Sides include potatoe or sweet potatoe fries, onion rings and popcorn chicken. They even have a kids menu of mini offerings including cheese burger "mullet" and pop corn chicken. If you are keen for a burger feed then this is the place to be.

There's a lot of style over substance in the restaurant. It's an American Ranch style smoke house…read more Like most restaurants that start up in the central coast its minimalistic in design and menu. The atmosphere has a sense of tension, the feeling you get when you want a restaurant to surprise you with good food, drinks and price, unfortunately SOW doesn't do any of them very well. The menu in the US can be found at most road side truck stops, nothing new here only that it's slightly misplaced in Umina. Not that it shouldn't be there it's just that because of the prices of the food and drink I can't seem to believe they'll have a loyal customer base. Well not all year round. I'm surprised given the location and the cost of rents in the area they couldn't be more generous with either the servings or the prices. In fact the restaurant is far more suited to Surry Hills, and charges the same prices. There's only one healthy option on the menu an ode to vegetarians, but without any enthusiasm and priced as the most expensive, it would seem they were trying to avoid the subject. Being so close to the coast and a fishing wharf I'm surprised there is no fish on the menu smoked or not. The drinks menu is interesting and leans towards the craft beers and cocktails. The wine list is appalling and unnecessarily slim. A glass of average wine at $11.00 it's cheaper to drink in Surry Hills. Overall it's a bar that wants to be a restaurant that wants to be a bar but probably can't because of licensing. I'd definitely go back for a drink and bar snack if they reviewed their pricing. In fact it's close to being the go to place, if they could get it right and find their appropriate audience for the location. The service was good, attentive and appropriate.

The pancakes were sweet and well balanced with mascarpone! The coffee was smooth and the service friendly. We followed sweets with a brisket Rueben burger, poutine tater tots and a pumpkin salad for balance. Being a brisket lover I have high standards and this brisket measure up nicely; succulent, tasty and juicy. The salad was tasty but a few more options in the salad department would be nice(fennel citrus???). We devoured the poutine taters in no time, dripping in tasty house gravy and mozzarella. The hero of the meal was the brisket in my book, washed down nicely with a golden ale. If you enjoy southern US diner food, then you won't be disappointed with sounds on west, the jukebox tunes add to the charm! And they stock Henry's gin from distillery botanica in Erina. Great stuff.

Too late for lunch and too early for dinner, but they were cool and take my order. As mine was the first order for the evening the wait time was nothing. The burger was mighty fine. Soft bun with enough saltiness from the pickle and cheese to compliment a very greazy double patty. The onion rings added a nice crunch. Reminds me of the classic American burger. The shoe strong fries was perfectly fried and salted. A decent portion too. So much food meant that I couldn't order any dessert. Much sadness. Happy to return here again one day.

I got the wagyu deluxe and was presently surprised that it came with onion straws (thin crispy onion rings!)! The bun was great but unfortunately I was very disappointed with the patty which was cooked well-done with poor quality beef - dry and unflavourful, hard to believe it was wagyu. My friend got the atomic deluxe which came with a very thick and crusty bread for bun. The fries had absolutely zero salt. I'm giving this place a 3 because there's a lot of potential. Most of their online reviews are quite poor so I think if they consider their customers suggestions they can really improve! Keen to try the pizzas next time.

Making this place perfect for a nice day. It's very typical casual Australian where you order at counter, choose a table and the staff brings out your food. You also grab your own water and condiments, which is a hit or miss for Americans. Personally, I love having it all out there for me to grab and not have to wait for someone to ask if I need anything! My guy picked a fried chicken sandwich special. They had a pretty long list of specials on a wooden board near the cashier, so I would check that out before ordering. I picked a burger with pan fried chorizo, jalapenos, and tons of aioli. It was really good. Although I'm still not quite used to the high prices for burgers with no sides in this country, it was very much on par with other burger joints I've seen. If not a dollar less than similar places. The two of us each got a burger and split one order of specialty garlic parm fries, but if you're cool with regular fries/chips, then they have a great deal to add a portion with your sandwich for only a $1 or $2. The nice view of the beach and the trees is a pretty nice perk as well. :)

The environment was very nice with great music, it has the classic American burger bar feel with the awesome red and white colour scheme.
