Ordered the pork belly bites for the entree at $19, avocado salad with calamari at $34.90, and fish and chips at $28. The pork came with plastic crackling, and not real crackling. The pork itself had been swamped in soy or some other sauce so it completely lost its flavour. The calamari salad was just edible. The calamari was under cooked and had little colour. It was tough and chewy. The fish and chips came with two small and greasy pieces of fish, and some very average chips. The bistro area is located in a separate area from outside and the bar area. Tonight they had love music in the bar, but unfortunately they piped that into the bistro area at such a high volume it was almost impossible to talk across the table. Once the live music had finished, the recorded music took over at a far softer volume allowing table chat to resume. Pub meals traditionally are good sized servings and taste great. This was not one of those occasions. $100 for two.

Headed down to the Nixon for a steak night special and found it alright . I ordered a medium rare rump steak 400 g $35 and felt like I got a more medium to well done steak. The steak was a bit pink ish at one small point but the consistency was more well done and a bit chewy. For flavour the steak was pretty tasteless unless u drenched the sauce on, all in all for a good protein grab the $35 was decent considering how much meat u get. Salad and chips were good. Bloke asked me for ID even though I wasn’t drinking and dining alone?. Mushroom sauce was pretty peppier with more of a gravy texture than a creamy mushroom.

Even though the food tasted good, there was no flexibility about adjustments to what we ordered. For example, replacing chips with the cauliflower. They said they can take out the chips, but You have to still pay for the cauliflower, which doesn't make sense to me. So this Inflexibility was off-putting and would be the reason I don't come here again. In this day and age where people are on diets and have dietary requirements, you would hope that there would be a bit more flexibility like that.

ORDERED • Chicken wings w/ ranch • Onion rings w/ chilli sauce REVIEW Wings and rings were very average. Not the best I've had, but definitely not the worst. Would I order it again? Probably not. The sauce coating the wings wasn't very tasty. Pickles were very meh. Onion rings were good, but a whopping $35~ bill should at least mean an enjoyable dinner

Dinner out after a long day. The venue is clean, welcoming, and comfortable. The service is excellent. The food was excellent, and reasonably priced. I had the Barramundi which was delicious and perfectly cooked. My guest enjoyed his gnocchi. Extremely pleased with our choice of eatery tonight. Gold star experience in every respect!
