Best Lunch Restaurants in Tumbi Umbi

We booked an early sitting at Il Toscano in Long Jetty so we could secure a table inside, out of the heat of the day. The staff were friendly, and the ambiance was great. It seemed like there was quite good noise dampening in the restaurant, as we could talk to each other easily without raising our voices, despite the radio playing some lovely music, and the other tables being full. It’s a restaurant experience we haven’t had in while, as we’re rather used to being drained or strained from attempting to be heard over the noise on the floor. The food was also superb. There was gluten-free pasta for me which was cooked to perfection, but everyone was raving about the regular pasta as well, and the fluffiness of the tiramisu (which is made in the restaurant). The cocktails were also quite nice, I very much enjoyed the Hugo Spritz.

A super Christmas buffet with fresh oysters and prawns, delicious roasts, veges and salads, plus pavlova and sticky date pudding. And more of course. Staff could not have been more cheerful. It was great.

Food was nice atmosphere nice Drinks took awhile to get to us due to new staff member who had no idea how to make a cocktail. Not his fault but didn’t think Xmas eve best day to have newbie doing cocktails. Should have just stuck with normal drinks

Excellent wait staff, so helpful, fast service, great cocktails

All the food and service were great.
