Kudos to the Manager and team for accepting feedback and going above and beyond to not only make improvements but exceed expectations. We look forward to returning again in the near future. Thank you for the friendly and personalized service as well as for the most delicious appetizers, mains and desert.

On our first night in Hobart, we were a bit tired from a week of walking around in the hustle and…read morebustle of Sydney, and then an afternoon walking through the Salamanca Market, so we decided to take the oath of least resistance and check this place out, which is located on the ground floor of the Ibis Styles hotel, where we're staying. They've got a decent menu, not overly large, and lots of interesting options. I went with the Hainanese chicken, hubs went with the fried rice. Both were super yummy, and I appreciated that they had the full complement of Asian condiments available: Sriracha, soy, sambala chili sauce, fish sauce, you name it. Servers were friendly and service was a-ok.

I had order the Mongolian beef and plum sauce & chicken, with fried rice a total of $38. A young girl had welcomed me with a friendly smile.

We kicked off our first meal in Hobart with a focus on seafood. Blue Eye was located at the end of…read moreSalamanca Market in a modern space with both indoor and outdoor seating. Lots of seafood options to pick from but there was one sirloin option for meat eaters and one vegetarian pasta. Afternoon oyster orgy (aka happy hour) was offered everyday from 3-5pm and the oysters were a great deal at half price. The six we ordered were large and fresh and came with a red wine mignonette. Other places charged extra for anything other than plain lemon wedges with their oysters. The fish of the day was a blue eye fillet which was a thick white fillet and with a very nice creamy sauce. The broccolini was perfectly cooked and one of the best in a long time. Potatoes rounded out the plate and were a good complement. Seafood linguine was served with a generous amount of shrimp, calamari, fish and scallops. Pasta was al dente. For dessert we finished off with their sticky toffee cake with a scoop of caramel ice cream. It brought back memories of our first one last year and was a satisfying end to dinner. Great service from the various staff members throughout our dinner. Would come back on a future stop in Hobart.

I can only comment on takeaway service, as I haven't dined in at Old Peking yet, but it's probably…read moreon the cards for the future as you can see I'm kind of in love. Chinese takeaway, hey? It's rare that I get a real craving for Chinese. I think the last time I ate it was in yum cha form a few years ago, and prior to that it was likely at my mum's place out in the country where Chinese is about the only "nice" takeaway food you can get. But for some reason a few weeks ago I was exhausted and desperate for some sweet and sour pork. I remembered a colleague giving a good review for Old Peking in passing, and so I crossed my fingers and ordered the classics: the pork I was craving, chicken with cashew nuts, and special fried rice. The service was quick and friendly and a bag of prawn crackers was thrown in as thanks. I got home, doled a bit of everything into a big ol' bowl, and proceded to EAT SOME OF THE BEST CHINESE I'VE HAD IN MY LIFE. The rice was fine--it had all the bits in it to make it special and even had some sauce drizzled on top--but the meat dishes were where it was at. Fresh vegetables just past crunch factor, delicious meat, and just enough sauce (nothing was swimming therefore nothing was soggy, but enough for the rice to soak up a bit of the flavour). Honestly, the vegies were the highlight for me. I hunted the last bits of carrots and broccoli from the chicken dish, I wept when the onion was finished in the pork dish. I've been back twice since. I'll be back twice as often before the year's out. I'm hooked! Plus the food is always ready SO QUICKLY (10-15mins), the staff are lovely, and the takeaway boxes come with hand-drawn smiley faces on them to accompany the descriptions. I'm not sure when I last saw food so happy to see me. Old Peking, you are my jam. Thank you for reminding me that takeaway Chinese is totally an option always worth considering. See you again soon. xoxo

We are in Hobart and wanted a nice place to eat, with great atmosphere, and good seafood. A friend…read morehad recommended Mures Upper Deck so we went... We're glad we did! Here's what we noticed: - A tour guy had told us that Mures Upoer Deck would be the same food as on the lower level, just pricier, but I don't think that is true. The menu was very broad, there's great cocktails, and a comprehensive wine list, and food that you can't get in the more fast food-like atmosphere down below. - We had a reservation and when we arrived, the place was practically empty. They seated us at a table by the window; the views were beautiful. - We decided to order cocktails off their cocktail menu, although some of the cocktails were supposed to be smoked and the server said their smoker wasn't working. We got them anyway and they were very nice. - We decided to start with a few oysters and the octopus salad. Both were really tasty. For our main course, my wife and I split the full flathead fish, which seemed to be a special that day. When it came out, we asked our server how to cut it, and he said he had never done it before so he didn't know himself, but that the chef cuts down the middle so that's what we did. The fish was really nicely done, and the other items on the plate added to it all very well. - Service was pretty good, but as I've noted, our server didn't seem to be very experienced, coming by our table way too much to check in. I think at some point he got the message. I wanted to just eat my dinner. Bottom line: We had a great experience at Mures Upper Deck and would recommend it to anyone looking for a little fancier evening.

Good Food, Good Service, Great for lunch…read more Had a group of 5 for lunch on a Saturday afternoon and was a bit upset that they only serve Boags beer?!?! We are in Hobart people. The Lamb Cutlets were by far the most popular dish on our table and were demolished the fastest too. Next visit I will be trying them.
