    Must "eat" when you are traveling at Golden Coast …read more Fish & chips is your first choice from the menu. Enjoy your time outside of the restaurant.

    Have to give this a rating of 5 because they deserve it. Have eaten here numerous times over the…read morepast few years but this is our first one since COVID. Peter's is still around and booming for one thing. Second is they have barely increased their prices as compared to everyone else on that Gold Coast!!! We arrived and there was still a line out the door if the fish market at 4:00PM. They shut down the kitchen at 7:00PM. Remember this is a fish market. They had added many more picnic benches that kind of line the street and have a few at the end of the little street overlooking the water. So, you pick out your seafood, stand in line and when it's your turn you tell them how you want it cooked. We ordered a meal that consisted of 7 large fried shrimp(crumbled prawn cutlets)and order of fries and a large bottled soda. Total check was $24 AUDs....about $16US. Our number was quickly called and we retrieved our food. Sat outside and had a delightful late afternoon lunch/early dinner. The shrimp were perfectly cooked. And the fries were plentiful and nicely seasoned with salt. Both the shrimp and fries had a nice crisp. Remember this is a fish market. Service is great if you are ok standing in line for a boating to order. Staff is there willing to help Seafood is described as to type and labeled whether it is freshly caught or has been previously frozen. What more does one want. Highly recommend even though I shouldn't because the place is already always packed. Remember this is casual dining and it is simple! Enjoy!

    TL; DR The most rude 'service' (more like sarcasm) I have ever received in my entire life at a…read morerestaurant. Try at your own risk. We made a booking a week in advance with the 'special occasion: date night' note. On the night, we called the restaurant to inform that we were running 10 minutes late. No problems. When we arrived, there was a queue of people in front of us. Unfortunately it didn't take long for the excitement to turn into a big time disappointment. After a short wait, our turn came. 5 awkward minutes passed by without 'hi' or even an eye contact by the receptionist. She must be reading breaking news on her tablet. Red flag #1. A tall, white and bald wait staff brought us to the table at a corner. When we asked if there was any chance we could move to one of the tables with the water view, we were told they were all taken. Fair enough. When we asked again if we could move to one if it becomes available throughout the night, the waiter told us that we stay at the same table once seated and that is how it works at the restaurant. Shocker. Surprised, I told him that this is the first time I visited a place with such a rule and that it doesn't commonly happen in Melbourne. His reply: 'I was in Melbourne for 15 years' to which I said 'I've been in Melbourne for 20 years'. At this point, I was convinced he was getting emotional. Red flag #2. As he walked off, I followed on and said 'it is alright, I am sure you are trying your best.' to which he whimpers 'and you are not'. Yeah he was pissed and amateur enough he couldn't hide it. Another wait staff, a white lady who seemed pregnant, approached us to pour some tap water. Still trying to comprehend the unreasonable rudeness by the bald waiter, I asked the lady if that is how things work around us. She flat out ignored us and walked away. Must be the wife of the other waiter. Red flag #3. After 3 minutes according to my watch, she walked towards us again. Perhaps she could answer my question I thought to myself. Nope. She just wanted to sell drinks. To be fair, nothing wrong with that, except all of the staff at Omeros seemed to have forgotten they are in the 'hospitality' industry to 'serve' the patrons. At this point I feel sorry for Omeros brothers as a fellow businessman. I just cannot imagine having such staff myself. We informed them that we couldn't find anything to eat and that we were sorry to leave. The bald waiter once again showed a great display of who's the boss by saying 'please don't be sorry, we are thankful.' ... before starting to whimper once again with an inaudible voice criticizing my attitudes. It is possible that we've somehow got under his skin, or that both staff were having a particularly bad night, or perhaps that they were just racists. Who knows. I just wish that others won't have to ruin their nights because of these guys at Omeros.

    Great seafood in an enchanting environment…read more After dining in 'downtown' Surfers Paradise for a few days I thought I would give Tedder Ave a try as I had heard good things. A walk up and down the strip reading menus and surveying the scene landed me at Shuck Restaurant and Bar. I started with a half of a dozen oysters. I wanted to try both the Sydney Rock and Natural Pacific and they were kind enough to serve me three of each. The Pacifics were oyster perfection - briny and meaty and tasting fresh from the sea. The Sydneys were not to my taste - somewhat flavorless and a bit sweet if anything. To each their own....YMMV. I followed them with the Moreton Bay Bug Tempura served in an onion salad with nori and a wasabi sauce. The bugs were fried lusciousness and the salad a tasty crunchy accompaniment. In a perfect world there would have been less sauce (and perhaps more wasabi in the sauce)...but that isn't really a complaint so much as a note for next time. I chose an Ara Chardonnay to accompany my meal. In a perfect world a Chenin Blanc would be offered...but I've since learned that neither Australia nor New Zealand grows a lot of the grape. The atmosphere is fun and open - I had an exterior table and watched the world walk by. The service was wonderful.

    Let me tell you that I've never had better barramundi with perfectly crispy skin on top of…read moreorecchiette that was to die for. With some sour cream dollops and some puréed peas was one of the best meals I have ever eaten. The Sydney oysters paired with an Ara Sauv Blanc from NZ was top shelf. The Ara Chard was actually better than the Sauv Blanc (wow!). The restaurant manager doted on me and made me feel at home - like I've eaten here every week for months. And, finally, the Affogato was a perfect finish. It's not ridiculously expensive - actually for price-performance, you can't go wrong. Go to Shucks and enjoy a fantastic meal!

    I was wholeheartedly expecting this place to be in another spot by the looks of it on social media…read morebut this place was elite in an elite spot. When we made our way to Gold Coast we thought why not spoil ourselves at a buffet. This spot got near any Australian thing you can think of and then some for breakfast. Whether it's Ceres, yogurt and pastries or fruit with meat and carbs you got it here. The juice/coffee bar was a nice touch as well and we spent our time not piling on our plates and eating trying every one of their juices and coffee on offer. I do wish I had room for more pastry but we ran out of time. For the price of 50 aud I'd easily come back with the boiz for a nice breakfast. And definitely if we stay longer than the day try the dinner!

The service is at the top of our list for meeting the gold standard we expect from any restaurant we visit! The ambiance is very enjoyable and the view is excellent!

    Wanted to experience the quality seafood that Queensland has to offer so decided to book to have…read moredinner here. From looking at the previous photos there showed that there was a wide variety available such as lobster and morton bay bugs. After being seated, checked what was available and was greatly disappointed that the seafood selection were quite minimal. We decided to stay and again was met with another disappointment that the dishes were either below or just average. When asked where were the lobsters etc we were told that they don't put them out on weekdays and even then it's on occasion. This should have been added to their website so folks are clear as to what they are getting. The prawns were nice but some were grainy. The oysters were super tiny. The meats that we had were the roast pork with crackling and the roast beef. Both were quite dry even with the sauce which was too salty. Also check one of the images attached. There is a bug on one of their desserts. Of the ones that didn't have any bugs were hit and miss. That aside the service was very good, very attentive. If the food was up to the same quality that would have been better. Overall quite meh. For the price I would go elsewhere.
