I had the Hot plate of Calamari, Bugs, Shrimp, Scallops & Salmon. Incredibly delicious-just like being in Boston! Calamari was tender & not over cooked (fried) like elsewhere. Sea Scallops were melt in your mouth great. Bugs (which I never had before) were awesome & very similar to Lobster! Large prawns cooked & served on a wooden skewer were delightful. Salmon was juicy & flavorful. Cannot say enough about the quality of the seafood & large portions they provided! The potatoes were prepared very similar to scalloped potatoes & broccolini was crisp & not over cooked. They had outside & inside seating to choose from. A very delicious Monteiths Pale Ale from New Zealand on Draft to boot! Cheers Mate Give them a try!

They have such a huge menu with all different variations of salads, kebobs, soups, stews, drinks and many other items. My favorite is the Joojeh Kebob which is a boneless chicken skewer. This dish is offered among several different options however we try to avoid rice as much as possible so our favorite plate is the Noon-O-Kabob. The dish usually comes with a side salad but we can't eat the dressing due to dietary restrictions so the kind owner has always been willing to accommodate. The Shirazi salad is also a favorite and is full of delicious flavors. The food quality is fantastic and I know this first-hand as I grew up having a Persian best friend and her mom's cooking is something I always miss. I'm so glad they have reopened as we were able to dine at their restaurant for lunch today. My partner has very limited days off but the time he does have off he always requests we get Shiraz for lunch or dinner. Definitely recommend this place to others! Plus if you're visiting as a tourist their prime location in Surfers is super convenient. We commute from Robina but it is definitely worth the drive!

Service was not unfriendly, and venue had the relaxed holiday atmosphere which was lovely, the food was a little whelming. We had battered flat head and chips which was boarding on fish less, cold, soggy and drowning in chicken salt. We also had crumbed calamari, disproportionally more batter/ crumb than calamari again chicken salt was very heavy handed, the chips were hot, which was nice. Lastly fish burgers had a good serve of fish on an un toasted buns with coleslaw both unexpected but okay. We wanted so very much to enjoy our meal, feel like maybe the shop has changed hands?

Server pretty much forgot about us throughout the dinner, and forgot our drinks. When delivering the check, he put our drinks in twice. Cocktail my lady friend got tasted like it wasn't made with any alcohol. They didn't acknowledge my birthday at all, except at the end when I mentioned to my friend and my server heard and then they took off a cocktail and half of a sake bottle. But by that time it already felt like I didnt enjoy my birthday dinner. Wanted to give two stars but the food (kingfish roll, seared scallop roll, chicken yakitori, chili garlic edamame, bottle of sake) was so good that I wanted to at least give three stars Loved the soundtrack and decor as well, but service really does make a meal.

Staying at QT, I didn't wish to venture too far tonight, so the hotel's food offerings were on the cards. Japanese has always been (and remains) one of my favourite cuisines and so the local Yamagen was on the cards. The Yamagen menu offered a few tantalising fusion options which are not "normal" Japanese faire, so I decided to go out on a limb and try these. I am so glad I did! I started with the Sashimi Tacos. One word - WOW. Taste and texture were fantastic and an absolute joy. A fantastic fusion take and well worth trying. The crispy pork belly for main was chosen and also just as delicious. The nashi pear base was great and the textures complimented each other perfectly. My only complaint was that there was too little of it, I could have eaten two of these (because they were so delicious, not because of the portion size...) But dessert was also on the cards, and the "Yonuts" were chosen. I am so glad I did. Powdered wake seaweed with fine sugar created a sweet and savoury juxtaposition which perfectly complimented the isolated caramel balls of joy. Oh wow. The wait staff were attentive but not overbearing and the whole experience left me wanting more. I try to dine at different restaurants when interstate, but I will be hard pressed not to come back for take #2 tomorrow evening... Thank you Yamagen for a great dinner - definitely one to savour again!
