    The restaurant is on the first floor (ground floor is a souvenir shop) and has a lovely view over Boulders Beach. Inside and outside eating.
    Very friendly staff!

    Mind the sign on the parking lot: “Warning! Please look under your vehicles for penguins!”

    Fabulous location on the coast at Millers Point. During whale watching season (July to November) you may even enjoy your food and see whales.

    All the seafood is excellent. Very good value for your money and the staff is superb!

    This place has such a lovely mood: we sat on the terrace at dusk, and into the night, sipping wine, munching, watching penguins on the grass below, and our children on the beach metres away. The fish was fresh and delicious, those that had meat dishes (ribs, steak) enjoyed them, and the children's selection was good.
