5.3 Average

My partner and I went to Docked on a Jump On It voucher. Not bad value for $39, but I guess you get what you pay for.

The feel of the place was good and the smells were great. Waited 20 minutes to have our orders taken, which made me annoyed. Not sure whether this is because of the Spanish style dining and spread out over the night. Set a bad tone with me for service.

The appetizer was quite bad, not a fan of stale bread with unauthentic Chorizo on top. The entree meals were average, cheese on mussels? Not a fan. The fried eggplant with honey was tasty, I enjoyed this.

The main was an oily, heavy paella for us to share. I thought there was supposed to be fish, prawns and seafood in it? Not cheap marinara mix. I have vowed to always check Internet reviews before I go out again and waste my time and money.

I like to give restaurants a chance to impress me, however, this restaurant failed to provide service nor quality. I would suggest for the owner to focus on the details of the business including, using authentic quality Spanish cuisine (authentic Chorizo, and better quality food) and more communication to customers and let them know that Tapas dining is spread out so we aren't waiting hungrily and getting angry with the service.

By the way, very lucky to have such a gorgeous view. Good luck.

One of the most sub-standard meals that I have ever had. Bullet prawns with little flavour, salad mostly vinegar, reheated, discoloured, over-cooked beans, fish tasted of sour yoghurt that over powered the flavour. Service was poor as they didn't make sure our order was correct and received wrong prawn dish. When we asked for salt to add to our starter, was told that "too much salt is not good for you". I found this strange. This is not the same standard as two years ago when we enjoyed the food. Won't be going back.
