   The grilled fish was excellent, unfortunately, the chicken was tough and over cooked. This spoiled the anniversary lunch for me.

   Food yum. Cocktails are expensive and in a small glass 2/3full - I ordered the Australia 75. Poor value for the size of the drink. Service was good until the restaurant got more busy then it took a while to ask for another drink. We weren’t offered desert menu but we weren’t interested in desserts.

    Snapper sushi and spicy tuna Kobe were both perfectly fresh and a fantastic mix of flavours. Great value.

    Have dined twice in the last couple of days - lunch and dinner - food is good but on both occasions we were amazed at the lack of co- ordination between placing of orders and receiving of food - seems utter chaos (serious lack of communication) between waiter/waitresses -and the kitchen - our entrees and mains arrived at same time - mistakes galore - serious room for improvement - won’t dine again in the meantime

    They tried to seat us at a table in front of the service area and next to the toilet entrance. No other tables available except the tall chair bar tables, so no thanks and we left. Sad as it was our first time there.

    This is a very good restaurant if you are interested in seafood cooked extremely well and imaginatively. Stand out menu items were the Snapper Ceviche and the Bugs which were charcoal grilled and without the lashings of sauce that they are usually drowned in. The wine menu is well chosen to match the food menu. On the evening we dined there we had exceptional service from the person who looked after us. WE would like to have returned for a second time but unfortunately ran out of time in Darwin. Would we go back? Definitely!

    A terrific Darwin dining experience in a beautiful tropical waterfront location. I have dined at Snapper Rocks numerous times and keep coming back for the wonderful variety of fresh local foods with something on the menu to suit all tastes. My personal favourites are the Poke Bowls, in particular the lime & soya marinated snapper, and I love the variety of tropical inspired cocktails with a toss up between the Spicy Ginger Mule and the Salted Pink Grapefruit Spritz. It's a joy to sit outdoors with misting fans keeping things cool, and my review wouldn't be complete without complimenting the staff on their friendly and efficient service every time. Highly recommended.

    Fairly average service we weren’t even offered water for the table when we got there, we had to help ourselves. We overheard the table next to us saying something to the waitress about their order and they were told the chef was in a foul mood right now. Our meals didn’t all come out together we had to wait a while for one plate to come out and ask them how long it would be. The tables were slow to be cleaned up. We understand that being Easter it was busier than normal and more pressure for the staff but feel they weren’t properly prepared for this. We didn’t want to give a bad review but we spend over $400 and feel overall it could have been better.

    This place was the yummiest food we had in Darwin. It was so so good. I recommend the Lobster Laksa. Unfortunately we couldn't get a second reservation for the rest of our holiday so I recommend booking when you can!

    The food here was good, but it was let down by the service which was basically terrible. The waitstaff seem very inexperienced and the whole process of ordering food or drinks was more difficult than it should have been. Orders had to be repeated multiple times before the waitstaff could understand what was being ordered. Food and drink also took an unreasonably long period of time to be served in a restaurant which was busy was not full.

    Great food and service, we all enjoyed our food. Only negative was that the noise level just from other patrons was excessive. We couldn't hear others on our table speaking. Walls maybe need something to soften the echoing.

    2 out of 4 of our meals were amazing and the other 2 not good at all. The 2 that WERE amazing were the same dish.. the eye fillet steaks, both cooked to the standard ordered ie medium and medium to well, and were both so good I could have easily eaten another plate of the same and I’m not a big eater it was just so yummy. However the other 2 dishes one being battered fish, the other being the $90 rib eye were not worth the money at all sadly. The batter on the fish made one feel ill and the rib eye was over cooked as it was ordered as medium rare and came out as medium well and wasn’t all that tasty at all and being it was a $90 plate was very disappointing. The sides we ordered, oysters and kippfler potato’s were also not something I would order again as I make better at home. The service was friendly but I noticed when one person was asking for a specific drink the restaurant didn’t have the person taking our order did not suggest the menu item I later saw was a fancy version of the same and likely would have been enjoyed as an item not sold elsewhere instead of the alternative offered. I am going to say no to recommending others to eat here but not entirely true as I would recommend very much so the eye fillet steak but add that we were disappointed with the other dishes we ordered.

    Snapper Rocks large snapper to share was sensational, beautiful fish, well cooked and beautifully presented. A fault of many restaurants is to leave diners with used plates etc when meal finished. Often more concerned with setting other tables than the people! Also, ran out of the champagne we were enjoying - ''it took a big hit last night", poor form!
