This was a lovely seaside cafe, though considering that it does happen to be at the top of a hill,…read moreI certainly wouldn't go as far as suggesting that it is a beachside place. Actually, it is more of a fish and chip restaurant, one that is also licensed, however, the staff are friendly, and helpful, enough that they are more than happen just to serve you a beer. Yeah, I found this place to be quite nice, even though it does get a little crowded on those rather nice days.

After a fun day at the beach, we were wanting to have a nice dinner in Stradbroke. The bus driver…read moretold us about two places and we decided to try out Fishes. They had an extensive menu and had daily specials that sounded great. They had sand crabs, prawns, or moreton bay bugs. Of course they would sell out of the Moreton Bay Bugs right as we sit down. My friend and I shared the Fisherman's Basket. We had it with crumbed barramundi, prawns, calamari, scallops, salad, and a basket of chips. My favorite part was the scallops! The barramundi was good but wasn't as fresh as we'd like it. My other friend ordered the barramundi in another dish and felt the same way. Another friend ordered the seafood prawn pasta and the other salmon. Both were happy and satisfied with their meals. Everyone enjoyed their meal but thought the quality of the seafood didn't meet our expectations. Good place but for fresh seafood, it didn't quite hit the spot.

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!

The food tasted really good but my partner thought the fish was a bit oily but when I was eating it tasted ok to me. It wasn't until the car ride home that my tummy started to disagree with all the oil I had eaten. Besides this factor it is differently worth the drive out. To have a nice meal with an amazing view. Another plus is that it has Eftpos. (Most small Fish and Chip place are still cash only) They had really good vaule for money. As our fish and chips was enough for two people. I also liked the factor that they had their manu on a TV screen witch made it easy to view what they had on offer. Over all would reccomand this place.

We couldn't finish it and we tried really hard. Thank God the man serving us was kind enough to stop me from ordering an entrée dish, he reassured me that I would have more than enough to eat and I was wise to I listen to him. So basically unless you want to take away your food at the end of your meal, this giant seafood platter is more than enough for two people without anything else. The service was great too, very attentive even though they can get quite busy later in the night. I would recommend going there early, we were there around 6pm and our food came out really fast. Overall really liked it I would definitely come here again if I'm in the area.

After a red wine we ordered the oysters with just lemon and salt. Pretty tasty, nothing amazing but I've never been a big fan of oysters anyway. For the main, i ordered the seafood chowder, which was apparently the "customer favourite", and my partner ordered the seafood platter for two. Service was good but we did wait a little while for our mains, however I would put this down to how early we were. Chowder was great, nice chunky seafood and a tasty sauce. Bread wasn't anything amazing but still nice, . the platter however was huge! Fruit, salad and seafood all served up in a decadent looking dish. Overall I give 4/5 stars for the experience, but this place certainly isn't cheap.. There are some cheaper items on the menu however. Would definitely return.

It is just across the street from the beach - and offers a beautiful view (with a few passing cars) of the beach. But the food. Wow. Fresh pieces of fish - cooked mostly natural and perfectly. We had a dozen oysters, including delicious Tazmanian oysters. And then continued on with a beautiful piece of swordfish from Mooloolaba. It was slow grilled, and then served with a little veal au jus and topped with a small creamy piece of Foie Gras. We also had the jumbo prawns which were bold, bright and tasty. With each entree - they also bring you a selection of sides a part of the meal. Our included a bowl of bright vegetables with snow peas, a bowl of oven baked potatos, fresh cos salad. For a treat, be sure to try their house made tartar sauce on your potatos (but don't on the fish. It needs no such thing). The staff there was friendly and helpful. They paired beautiful local wines with each course. And were generous with the time and energy. This is a place I would return to any time in the area!

First of all the environment is pretty good，lights quite dark but the atmosphere is nice. A bit noisy but it's acceptable.

Last, the price is quite expensive, we ordered three dishes for $180.
