Best Bistros in Clayton

Lovely venue..friendly staff but service a little patchy

Just had a birthday anniversary lunch there and it exceeded our expectations brilliant staff lovely menu overlooking the water with a great wine and cocktail selection- a nice little surprise to finish our weekend and will definitely be back

Fantastic food and amazing service at a reasonable price. Would come again

Welcomed by very friendly and up-beat staff. Great lively atmosphere. Italian flavour in everything including wait staff, wine list and food. Service paced very well. All-in-all a great night. I would highly recommend to anyone

In the last-minute rush to book a restaurant on Valentine's Day, Open Table saved the day and we managed to book a table for two at The Pier. The interior is tastefully designed and surprisingly quiet, allowing conversation without having to raise your voice. The menu should satisfy most diners, with dietary preferences catered for. We started with the burrata fresh citrus, pickled fennel jam & fig leaf oil which was delicious and augured well for the meal to come. We accompanied the buratta with the optional wood-fired bred, and I recommend you do too. Our main courses were the Summer Risotto and the Fish of the day (salmon on our visit); both wonderful. Popular choices at neighbouring tables included the Portarlington chilli mussels and the Wagyu bolognese. Political correctness precluded me from tasting what was on my neighbours' plates, but they seemed to enjoy their choices. We ended the meal with chocolate pudding, served with ice cream and macadamia. Another highlight was the friendly, efficient and unobtrusive service. Highly recommended.
