    Wonderful experience and fantastic services. The lamb shoulder for two was divine! Perfect space to celebrate an occasion or just have a lovely dinner.

    Absolutely stunning location and super friendly staff, made the whole experience very pleasant. However we were left a bit disappointed with the Snapper and Prawns that came out cold.

    We would highly recommend Martha Hardy’s Kitchen for Sunday Roast. The service was excellent, great selection of roasts to choose from and the lamb we had, melted in our mouths. Desert was delicious too.

    Perfect way to celebrate our 40th anniversary. The food was superb - 17 hour slow cooked lamb shoulder was melt in the mouth, served with everything you could want with a roast and more. Dessert whilst only 2 choices + cheese platter on the offering we chose from, was equally enjoyed. The staff were all friendly, helpful and made our sitting special - the surprise treat on the occasion of our anniversary was a lovely gesture. Only negative and it is ever so minor - our table was streaky when we arrive from being wiped down. With no tablecloth I think it’s important to have a pristine surface on show to match the rest of the standard.

    One complaint...corkage was $75 per bottle I understand the venue wants you to choose from their selection. However it was one bottle of bubbles 🍾 to celebrate a birthday . That soured the afternoon for all !! Otherwise food and service was exemplary

    Food and service were exemplary. We thoroughly enjoyed our various courses. Kudos to the chefs and kitchen staff for producing the quality of food that was consistent. Just be aware that the mark up on the wines is way over the 100% of retail.

    We celebrated a milestone birthday at Martha Hardy's Kitchen this weekend and it was hands down the best meal we've had in a long time! The service was amazing the food was incredible and the views.. just outstanding! The happy birthday dessert plate was a lovely surprise. Thank you to all the staff for a brilliant experience. Would highly recommend a visit to this venue. We will definitely be back.
