    I selected the fisherman's basket. Too much fried food....my mistake. Would like to see the same ingredients grilled. My wife had the pumpkin risotto. Nice flavour but shouldn't risotto be served 'al onda'? We will return, the menu is sufficiently varied and extensive.

    The menu has an extensive range of fabulous foods, the teenagers had Italian Steak Sandwich and Chips, Grilled Chicken Burger and Chips which they devoured and said how great they were. Adults exceptionally happy with their meals, Grilled Barramundi and Prawns (a little disappointing as thought the prawns would have been whole) but still delicious, Chicken Parmigiana and Ravioli Boscaiola. After dinner kids had a Gelato (great choice of flavours) yummy and adults had Coffee and a cake (excellent selection of delicious cakes) All in all a lovely night, friendly and attentive staff.

    We had a wonderful meal with our family of 9 + baby, it so so relaxing as the 4 older children played in the play area. The food came fairly quickly however it would have been helpful to be informed that the lamb dish took 30mins to cook and the children were getting a little hungry, it was delicious which saved the evening.

    The food was good but we came on a day that had lots of kids parties so it was very noisy but overall the staff were good and the place was clean and tidy.

    We dined out at the Fraternity Club on Saturday night booking a little later than we usually do at 6 which in hindsight was not a good idea as it meant we had to queue to place our order and the food took twice as long to come out. Overall value and quality of food was good although I did notice they had reduced quantity of lamb on the lamb salad and a medium steak was medium rare. It was quite noisy at times with a baby screeching next to us for some time which was not pleasant.
