Absolutely delightful afternoon. Great view , great food, top up with great sunshine. The platter was one of the best I had. The dish that was out of this world , was the tuna tartare. The seafood platter had an abundance of food. Beautiful place. Must visit late afternoon towards sunset time. They close 8pm FYI.

For birthday celebrations we went here, perfect day, weather was great for mid July, by the water, fantastic. Greated warmly at the door seated by the window near the water. Ordered the platter, is was superb, everything was so, so fresh, tasty and cooked brilliantly. Fresh seafood, great location, couldnt ask for anything more.....a cold drink maybe!?!

Fresh ingredients, great food, abit pricey but still a great place to take the family.. Came for the fish and chips, the flathead is good too, the lobster linguine, seafood chowder and boatshed burger. Came on a public holiday momday at 11.30am with no wait - were seated immediately as their next full booking was 12.30pm. Would come again - great place to eat and great vibes. Staff was also super kind and accommodating. By the time we left, take out and restaurant line was loooooong and parking was killer to get out.

Beautiful date night spot and suitable for families and groups. Gorgeous water views. Very friendly and kind staff- they are all super happy and helpful. We ordered the seafood platter for 2 and it was delicious. Couldn't fault anything. Great quality and great prices. Definitely going back! Book just before sunset to get the full beauty of the beach and amazing views.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Had an awesome dinner at The Boatshed. Everything was fresh, beautifully presented, and full of flavour!! If you book ahead you’ll be seated right away. If you walk in during busy times you might wait around 10 minutes for a table, but it’s absolutely worth the wait. We walked in without booking, but the staff were friendly and attentive, it was no pressure waiting. Started with Sydney Rock Oysters, super fresh and perfect with lemon. The grilled octopus was the absolute standout for me, it was incredibly tender and with a beautiful char and amazing flavour. Easily one of the best octopus dishes I’ve had, Legit. For mains we had the Ocean Perch with chips and salad. It was cooked perfectly, flaky, juicy fish with crispy chips and a fresh side salad. Seriously mouthwatering. The Santorini Sunset cocktail was refreshing and perfect for a sunny afternoon, and we finished it all off with a cup of coffee while watching the sunset. Great food, great atmosphere, and a beautiful spot for seafood by the water. Will definitely be back! 🌅🍽️🍸☕
