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.

I decided to dine here as I wanted to stay by the waterfront on my last day. I ordered the T42 which must take longer to prepare than the other menu items. There were a coupe customers who ordered after me but got their orders first. Although a lot of food, I was not too impressed with the T42. The flakes were lacking any significant flavor unless steaming hot is considered a flavor. I enjoyed eating the crab sticks only because they were a novelty. I never had crab legs battered and fried. The chips were okay but I had tastier ones earlier in the week. As for the large crowds I had been observing during the week, the restaurant is the nearest to the sidewalk and accepts major credit cards. Plus, it's a novelty to order from a boat docked.

The chips are also not crash hot which is a shame as it can be a fish and chip shop redeeming quality. Keep in mind, these guys are on a barge and they tend to have a line up as well.

Yikes, it was a ton to eat, plus side of salad and couscous. Really liked my meal, although I wished I had got the smaller entree version. Staff worked well as a team.

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.

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.

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.

Far far too much for 2 but we ate the seafood first so we wouldn't get stuck. :) Highly recommend!!

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.
