    We went early, so not many people were there. We ordered the spicy seafood linguine, the mussels were cooked to perfection and the rest was just yum. I would recommend

    We were there on the Friday of MotoGP , the busiest weekend on the Phillip Island calendar. Grenache was full and busy, but the staff did their job admirably well. We got great recommendations on how much to order across starters and mains for shared dining. Service was very friendly and the food tasted wonderful. Everyone had a great time. Thanks!
