    Food was fantastic, wine a bit steep but expected. The views make it all worth it, especially when the dolphins go by.

    This is a very funny place. I keep going back because of the views and ambience. However, the quality of the food varies from a 10 to a 1. There seems to be no consistency. I have been going since 1987 so I think its fair to comment on their inconsistency!

    Had heard about Jonah's for years and finally mananged to eat there over Easter. It must be one of the most spectacular restaurants in Australia. The food was lovely. Service was professional - nothing was a problem. Highly recommend this establishment - expensive but worth it. I already want to go back !

    Amazing view, best seen in the morning. Food is excellent but the price is ridiculous (you pay for the view, not the food).

    Service was the worst I've ever had in a restaurant of this price. I can't imagine it would survive in the city. Food was ok if not a little dull. No comparison to other places at this price. For this price you would expect them to pour the wine and serve bread rolls before the entree! Service dreadful considering there were 4 waiters and only about 20 patrons. You get the feeling that some of the staff are annoyed to have people in the place.

    The view is the only thing that this place has going. Both the staff and menu are prententious beyond belief and the price you pay for that is ridiculous. It truly isn't worth the price of the petrol that it'll cost you to get up there. A major disappointment.
