Big wow for a Scoopon voucher. The service was excellent and the food was very yummy. Delicious three course meal but only one entree choice and my partner doesn't eat smoked Trout but the salad it came with was very tasty so I had extra trout, yay.

For our main we chose the Beef Fillet with Gnocchi which was scrumptious, we bought a side of beans which were huge and scrumptious too.

Our favourite part of the night were the desserts passionfruit Pavlova and the chocolate crème brulee to finish were to die for. The only downside was the cold breeze coming in from the open doors and the loud phone ring from the managers desk but this won't stop us from coming back!

Food is great, waiters very slow - it took 15 minutes to order a drink and 25 minutes to order only to find that the Fish and Prawn Pie was just sold out. If it didn't take so long to be served we might have been able to try one. Starters of the odd number of scallops were delicious and oysters were as well. Lamb leg was overkill for two people and the garlic mayo looked gravox but tasted ok. I have heard since that now there are two sittings but they couldn't cope with one sitting two weeks ago.

The food was delicious, the tapas of garlic prawns were yum and prawns were huge, ceviche not bad, pork belly awesome and chorizo would have liked spicier which they were on the skewer. Would have liked more black pudding on the mixed skewer. A little over priced but the bad thing was the loud dance music which felt like you were at the Establishment in the 90's and the service is a little poor as it is hard to get grumpy waiters attention (there were 3 waiters btw).

Delicious fresh food and great service. We had the entrees of Oysters and Scallops which were large, fresh and scrumptious. Mains of the stew and eye fillet were just as good as was the service. The restaurant might be one street back but there is no view at night on the esplanade as it is dark. We will definitely be back.

Have just been back and enjoyed a birthday dinner here with a bigger group the service was well timed and the food was outstanding. The oysters and scallops as well as calamari were delicious. The stew was faultless, the barramundi was delicious and the steak was just as good as last time. Can't wait to go back again.

Excellent food, have tried Nepalese food before but this place hits the spot. The set menu entrees are delicious as well as the goat and vege curry. Service a little shy but very good. We will definitely be back.

Ambience was lovely and service was outstanding as especially very child friendly. The complimentary Amuse Bouche went down a treat, the fresh bread was delicious and our entrees of quail, cheese souffle and scallops were scrumptious as were our mains as well as the kids meal. Even better is the BYO on a Friday and we were able to release our treasures from the wine rack from our last trip. We will definitely be back.

Great location but the waiters vary, the first was rude on booking one afternoon but the second when we turned up was friendly and accommodating. I have always wanted to try the Seafood platter but it was disappointing with alot of deep fried flavourless squid and only one bug, the menu says bugs btw, anyway, besides the entree of scallops were delicious but I would say this place is over rated and over priced there are yummier and better serviced places in Cronulla.

Discovered Peacock Trattoria a month ago and had a scrumptious dinner and returned with the extended family to find it delicious especially for a Fathers Day as we all know how bad a set menu lunch can be. Service was excellent except for the staff not familiar with what they are serving and no kids meals except for Pizza which was yummy I might add. Love the funky decor as per previous comments a bit of the city in the burbs.

Service was from good to bad and the waitresses made us feel like we were in the way of their rush as we were hoping for a romantic dinner.

Rushed to order our entrees were good but small as the quail dish had one small quail cut in half and the zucchini flowers were 2 small ones with a tiny bit of sauce underneath. My partner likes salty food and we waited at least 3 minutes for salt by then he had inhaled his one quail. Wonder why they have pepper on the table then the mains, my duck was delish but the baby veges were nearly invisible, I wish the waitress would have let us know to order veges or salad just in case.

Then for the $38 steak, we missed the 200 gram comment in description and been a hungry male it was definitely not enough for a man especially since it was on the smallest amount of mash and barely any sauce. We mentioned to the waitress that was well done and not medium to well as ordered she said well next time you come here let us know during your meal but it was so small we had no patience to wait to get a waitresses attention.

I should have said we won’t be back. As for the wine list you will find double the price of the cellar doors. Considering the $200 plus bill we were hoping to take all night but instead we left after our main course disaster. We will continue looking for great Italian restaurant in the South of Sydney with good service.

Not as spicey as Indian food but nice flavours. Tried the goat which was delicious and the lamb curry melted in your mouth. Nicely furnished with dim lighting and relaxing music. Waitress not so friendly but it was busy and she was the only waitress.
