The menu was primarily seafood, also not a surprise. I decided to order a salad, not really in the mood for seafood. There was roast cauliflower, steak, chicken Parmesan, and various pizzas in addition to fishy dishes. The place was also packed, so I was glad we got an outside table. I thought my salad was delicious. It had fennel and Parmesan cheese shavings over the greens. I don't know what the greens were, but everything went well together and it was a generous portion. I had second thoughts about salad when I saw the amazingly presented entrees my dining companions had selected. After starting out with a beautiful Bloody Mary, my daughter-in-law had a crumbed dory burger with chips(fries in the States). It had two fish patties coated in herbed crumbs and she said she almost always ordered it, it was so good. It looked delicious but I stuck with my salad. My son had beer-battered flathead fish and chips. It was perfect with crunchy, lightly browned coating covering flakey white fish. I snagged a few of his fries which were also perfect. Prices in restaurants are always higher than in the U.S., but how likely are we to find fish like dory or flathead on the menu? Additionally, waitstaff in Australia are paid a living wage and don't rely on tips.

The menu boasts a wide range of delicious options, however I do recommend some changes. I ordered a Vanilla Espresso Protein Shake, and it came out watery and to be honest, didn't taste very desirable. However I understand the current predicament and it seemed to be very busy, it really wasn't too much of an issue. I was contemplating this and the Iced Coffee, but didn't know it the coffee was blended or not. In future it would be nice if that would be specified. Now regarding the food, it was absolutely delicious! I ordered the Açai bowl, it was so good and the presentation was so beautifully done. It tasted as good as it looked as well, I wish there was more! It was a nice meal for breakfast and filled me up without making me feel sick. The only thing I would like to note is that the meals come out at the same time. My order came out 20 minutes before my friends, it was hard to resist the look of my Açai bowl. Other than that, it was a delightful breakfast and start to the day. I recommend to everyone and I'm sure Emu Hall is a restaurant fit for all occasions. A true gem!

There is a substantial menu given it is a sensually just a pub meal, as well as being fairly priced as with the drinks also. There is an outdoor seating area as well as the option to cook your own meat yourself. Whilst it was a pub it was, there really was very little noise.

Our lovely waitress not only gave us excellent food recommendations, but she even showed me a map of where we needed to walk to find some fresh flowers for the crematorium.

Delish, and just the right amount. Loved the presentation in the pretty white shells. Next we tried the fried squid with squid ink aioli. Again another great little meal. Very crisp and tasty. Hot. Cheese. Dip. YESSSSS!!!! This is the one thing on the menu that we saw on their website that made us want to come here in the first place. A hot sizzling iron plate of gooey white cheese, served with warm toasty flatbread. YUM. Elegant atmosphere and a great view of Darling Harbour. Very impressive place.
