The staff are entitled and provide terrible customer service when they are not on personal mobile calls The atmosphere is also terrible. There is a bus stop out the front with buses frequently stopping in both directions The noise from cars and buses is overwhelming and destroys what atmosphere there is. Do not go to this place unless you dont mind being very disappointed.

It is a fine dining gem right on the edge of the beach, with an absolutely breathtaking view to match the food. The waitstaff are of top level professionalism and have wonderful dementors. The interior of the restaurant is curated with pieces of art by local artists which gives it a very homey feel, while also providing lovely pops of colour. The menu seems complex but don't be afraid to try anything. Every single thing on the menu has layers of flavour and which will surprise you and make you wanting more. The option for 3 small dishes is the way I like to go, as you get a better selection of flavours. This place is perfect for date nights, anniversaries, birthdays, group events, or even showing off to your foodie mates. The price is a bit high in comparison to most places on the central coast but that's because the coast doesn't have many fine dining restaurants. Absolutely worth every cent. It has fast become my favourite restaurant!

The view here was beautiful, looking out at the beach at Patonga. The decor was very nautical, as…read moremight be expected, navy and white with tables covered in sail-like white awnings. The menu was primarily seafood, also not a surprise. I decided to order a salad, not really in the mood for seafood. There was roast cauliflower, steak, chicken Parmesan, and various pizzas in addition to fishy dishes. The place was also packed, so I was glad we got an outside table. I thought my salad was delicious. It had fennel and Parmesan cheese shavings over the greens. I don't know what the greens were, but everything went well together and it was a generous portion. I had second thoughts about salad when I saw the amazingly presented entrees my dining companions had selected. After starting out with a beautiful Bloody Mary, my daughter-in-law had a crumbed dory burger with chips(fries in the States). It had two fish patties coated in herbed crumbs and she said she almost always ordered it, it was so good. It looked delicious but I stuck with my salad. My son had beer-battered flathead fish and chips. It was perfect with crunchy, lightly browned coating covering flakey white fish. I snagged a few of his fries which were also perfect. Prices in restaurants are always higher than in the U.S., but how likely are we to find fish like dory or flathead on the menu? Additionally, waitstaff in Australia are paid a living wage and don't rely on tips.

They said I can order takeaway but it this case I will not be allwed to eat inside no matter if there are tables available, because this is how they operate or I can just get out of there if I don't like it! Unbelievable how rediculous this person is, how could someone like this be hired for hospitality job? It looks like there is no way they are thinking about interests of the business and no respect for customers. When I returned for takeaway and asked for a feedback form he insulted me and started yelling. To be honest, I am afraid that he should be reported to police as he sounds mentally unstable and could be dangerous of the society. I admit, the food was good before but there is no way I am coming back!

Terrible service and explanations of what was going on, and the kitchen staff are obviously incredibly disorganized, despite one person being in there and just wandering around and not doing anything. A pity. They could do so well with this location if they just tried. And people would travel there if they heard about the good service and good food that is possible. But currently I will travel elsewhere for food, even when I'm in Pearl Beach.

This is not a Mexican restaurant. Yes they mix up Margaritas…read moreand occasionally have fish tacos on the menu but that's about as much Mexican you will experience. YELP needs to update its listing. It's modern Australian cuisine. Relaxed and easy vibe with a great outdoor area overlooking Ocean Beach. Plus a lovely enclosed dining area with great seaside views. Tables and loads of easy seating available. It's floor boards so it can be noisy for people past 40 years with hearing beginning to struggle with noise and echo. The menu is classic seaside fair with great views. Love the Szechuan calamari and the pepperoni pizza is perfection. The cocktail menu is small tight and clever. But don't look for classics like gin martini or sidecars. Everyday has the standard menu plus blackboard specials. We've been dining at Margarita daze for three plus years and love it. You order drinks and food at the bar but staff deliver it to your table. Service staff are fun , helpful and charming. So easy with a group because everyone can order and pay separately. If you fancy a lazy lunch or a fun evening out don't hesitate to book a table. Wine list is tight and good value and easy drinking. Seriously there's nothing but bouquets for Margarita Daze.
