    Seafood tower was fresh and delicious Cheese platter rounded the evening off nicely. Staff were professional and attentive without being intrusive. Would recommend The Strand.

    Our experience at The Strand was so good we ate dinner there when we were first dating 29 years ago and it was great then and still is. Service was excellent and excellent food could not fault it in anyway.

    My partner and I came last night 15/8/2024 for dinner for our anniversary. We didn't get the name of the waitress but she was young girl with blond hair wearing a pearl necklace. She was the most amazing waitress I have ever seen in a restaurant. She was so kind and accommodating to us and made our night out the absolute best. If we had cash we would've tipped her because of how outstanding she was.

    Bread, dukkah, olive oil and olives - Bread straight from the oven, searingly hot and great. Lobster and Ricotta ravioli - simply outstanding!! Best I've had!!! Oysters - very fresh. Taste of the sea. Excellent. Linguini marinara - not quite as tasty as previous efforts. Squid was not fresh? Snapper - ladies said very good but portion could have been more generous. Sticky date pudding - Excellent! Cheese and crackers - very good but they ran out of Brie so extra tasty provided. Wine - Dandelion Vineyards Lionheart of the Barossa Shiraz. 2 bottles. Excellent! Overall - I love this place and have been on several occasions. Food and service always great.
