Holyshh the oysters are so good in Tasmania. My husband and I stopped in here for happy hour and a…read moresnack - happy hour is from 5-7pm. Natural oysters delicious on their own - creamy and meaty. The smokey ardbeg oysters are so out of this world with buttery goodness and hint of bacon!!!! The wakame and sesame topped oysters were refreshing if you like seaweed salad. The Rockefeller oysters were interesting in a good way with the spinach and herb mixture. The seared scallops were nicely seared, the cauliflower and parsnip puree is delicious, could've done without the grilled potato. Damn, I'm still thinking about those smokey ardbeg oysters.

What you get food wise is finger foods, tapas-type things and some burgers. They have a lunch special with Tacos, which is what I ordered. They were fine enough, but the coffee? Dreadful. I didn't expect perfection from what's essentially a bar, but boy was it terrible. Milky and bitter somehow at the same time. What really got me was how LOUD it was. I don't to be the old man yelling at a cloud, but the music was so loud at 2pm I had to point to the menu item I wanted because the bartender and I couldn't understand each other. There's better lunch spots and definitely better coffee to be found.

That was plenty for me! Fish of the day was a nice soft fish that I ordered battered, and it was delish! Fries were excellent too. The place was pretty busy, maybe 8 tables inside and more outside., and take-out as well. Definitely worth a try! Wish I'd taken photos, but I forgot.

The service I received last time was very ordinary - including having one of my two meals forgotten, then expected to wait for the other to cook whilst allowing the first meal to go cold. The food was very uninspiring - the Blu Eye Trevalla was rather tasteless, the chips were mediocre and the potato cakes definitely didn't taste that fresh. Bottom line, I'd go elsewhere.

The oysters were fresh and the best part of the meal! The sashimi was just okay and definitely not worth the price they were charging. The dessert was not very good but the worst part was the squid. It was limp, not at all crunchy, and extremely plain. It came with a heavy white sauce so I asked if they had cocktail sauce instead. The server seemed confused so I explained what cocktail sauce was as I wasn't sure if it was a common condiment used in Tasmania. They brought me another creamy mayo based sauce even though I explained cocktail sauce is red.

How was everything so fresh? The seafood, the salad, everything. These guys are clearly perfectionists. For example a table was moved and the waiter spent some time levelling it.

The scallops were perfect. Even the kids meal was gourmet!

We ordered the seafood platter - two kinds of battered fish, crab sticks, prawns, scallops, salad and a mountain of chips. Everything was delicious. They even had proper tartar sauce and cider vinegar!! And lemon wedges of course. The chips were thick and unsalted - my preference - and golden fried on the outside and moist and puffy on the inside. Far far too much for 2 but we ate the seafood first so we wouldn't get stuck. :) Highly recommend!!

One of the fish fillets was grayish in color and dry texture. They had a great deal for fresh oysters and a decent selection of meat pies which were a favorite of the locals from our people watching observations.
