    I love kebab. My sister told me there is good restaurant around this area so I tried…read more I ordered (Sorry I forgot the name of food but you can see the picture what I ordered) Pizza(eggplant )- bomb!! I had first bite and was really good!! Vegetables was fresh so every each bite brings good taste of vegetables in my mouth! Like wow ! Dough wasn't dry was moist so was perfect match with the ingredients! Skewers plate? (Sorry forget the name but you can see on the picture) -I had skewers (lamb rack ,chicken mince lamb?) was delicious!!!!! I'm not huge fan of lamb but this lamb omg omg good flavor!!! I can taste of into the meat and the meat was juicy and good seasoning and was perfectly cook!! I can say more more much more good thing about this dish but let me calm down anyway good ..serving with pita bread and white creamy sauce and vegetables put all together on the pita and wrap and eat taste like come from heaven oh i forget the rice the rice?? Bomb... Cheese spinach wrap (sorry forgot the name) -was really good also it's like spinach cheese wrap with egg paper. Falafel plate-served with two pieces falafel and rice(this rice was bomb I think it's garlic rice?? Omg delicious!) and comes with mixed salad and hummus I can tell the hummus is house fresh made and it was best hummus I never try so far. I'm just visiting here. So I don't know when I come back to this place? Definitely I will miss this place! The food was delicious and bomb and plus best service?? Omg best restaurant!!

    Decided to try this place out as I walked past this restaurant…read more There are two seating choices: indoors or outdoors. At the time I was there, there was only one other person who sat indoors. The interior design of this restaurant is modern yet elegant - had some middle eastern touches on its design. Upon looking at the sample menu in the front, my eyesight glued upon chicken pilavs (Turkish style risotto) as it has cream sauce and was pan tossed with sliced mushrooms, cubed chickens and shallots. It was definitely tasty like what the menu described. It has lemony taste, the pilavs was soft yet chewy and the cream was in right proportion to linger the tastebuds. It was still hot when it was served and realized that just after I put a spoonful of it in the mouth. Tried the lemon lime bitters. It was actually soda with syrup. Was fizzy when it was served and you would need to stir the bottom to mix the beverage. Was pretty good as it has strong fruity taste that I yearn for. Overall, price wise it was pretty high for me but probably on the normal range for Australian market. The lady who served me was also cheerful and asked me how was the food. Seemed like many people had commented "loved it" that she wasn't responding to my comment. Will be back again if I'm craving for more risottos.

    Incredible food and super nice, accommodating and understanding staff. Tru Blu Mediterranean is a…read moremust-try restaurant if you're looking for a place to eat. Between my family and I we ordered the hummus and lamb, croquettes and lamb spring rolls for appetisers. For mains we enjoyed the pork belly, the duck leg, ocean trout, the lamb special and the octopus, as well as sides of polenta chips and broccolini. Finally, we finished off the meal with the flourless chocolate cake, the sticky fig pudding, the creme brûlée and the affogato. Every single meal we indulged in was extremely full filling and delicious as could be! The staff were more than happy to alter meals for my grandmas who can't handle chilli and our waitress seemed very happy and friendly. We will definitely be recommending Tru Blu to friends and definitely will be coming back for more!

    Mum's 85th. EIGHTY FIVE!!! We loved Starfish in Avalon but…read moreit closed after many years and we lost our favourite place. So I was really happy to learn the Starfish chef had opened up a new place. But the Asian influence that was Starfish's signature has been replaced with Mediterranean. Thats a bit odd I thought to myself. And the name, I mean Tru Blu? Is it me and you? Is it a Cockatoo? Anyway when the old girl turned 85, sheesh, 85! we went to check it out. First thing, the lunch menu is not the dinner menu. I had looked on line and saw some great dishes but the lunch menu is more limited. I chose a Fraser Island crab omelette because I am not an idiot. Who wouldn't order a crab omelette? Winner. You really taste the crab and there's plenty of it. Very very good. Keeno had the scallops. Of course she did, thats like saying the sun came up, or that Donald Trump is a meathead. Mum also had the scallops and loved them but note its a small meal. So much so that my chippies disappeared very quickly. Margie and Zoe had Mirror Dory, a daily special and declared it good. The dips and the shared bits and pieces were the highlight. Sensational. The room is nice, although its an odd place to plop down a restaurant, and a far cry from Avalon, but its handy if you need to go to Bunnings afterwards which I did. I will definitely go back for dinner cos this bloke can really cook and I have my heart set on a tagine. Which won't be good for my heart but I bet it will be good for my soul. The service is fantastic, really friendly and happy. I still miss the Bugs that I used to get at Starfish, but therapy is helping.
