Comments of Tempest Seafood Restaurant and Teppanyaki Grill
N. I.
Their soft shell crab entrées is very tasty, worth a try. Tempest basket is average (fish was a bit soggy side). The Peruvian Paella is okay. Let’s see how the dessert goes.
F. A.
This place exceeded my expectations way above the board. Ordered grilled octopus and wild mushrooms as entries and they were absolutely fantastic! For mains we got pasta and seafood paella - they were cooked well in their sauce and were absolutely delicious. Highly recommended!
A. S.
Great evening and atmosphere with great friends. Food was fresh and cooked perfectly. Moreton Bay bug and lamb was amazing. Our chef was lovely and really fun. All staff were very attentive and super friendly. Only requirement would be that the inside area where lobster tanks are and toilets , do need an overdue upgrade. For such an awesome place and location, just be nice to feel an overall classy feel.
R. L.
One of the best seafood platters I've had. Lobster was amazing as was everything else. Great place with a solid wine list. Highly recommended.
A. B.
Our families favourite place to dine. Food and service is always wonderful and an amazing view of the marina to scope whilst feasting on all our favourite dishes. Today we had a couple of Lobster Mornay’s and the Reef N Beef. Always an absolute treat
A. C.
Shared the Tempest Hot Platter with my partner. The platter was generous and mostly good. Took a little bit under an hour to receive after ordering though. Calamari was a bit cold. Lobster and grilled prawns were slightly over cooked. Oysters, octopus, bugs and scallops were very good. Fresh prawns were okay (had better). Service was polite and friendly. Overall a good experience but a bit over-priced for quality of seafood provided.
G. T.
Thank you Tempest team for making another celebration so incredibly special!
The seafood as always was super fresh and delicious. Seafood platters were scrumptious and fantastic value! The perfect amount of seafood to keep our bellies full, including delicious juicy oysters and prawns.
The staff go out of their way to make the experience memorable. One of our members was suffering with hot flushes but was looked after with cool towels and ice - a lovely caring touch!
Our waitress was wonderful, frequently checking in on us and taking group photos of us to add to our special memories. Also helped us with organising candles, and plates for the birthday cake.
This is a favourite of ours and our constant go to for special occasions and that will never change 😊 we will be back! Does not disappoint and exceptional experience with great atmosphere
T. M.
Amazing seafood. On the water dining experience. Great cocktails. I really enjoyed the oysters. Desserts were amazing.
A. C.
We had a wonderful seafood lunch with friends and will certainly be back. The seafood was so fresh and presented wonderfully… the seafood Sharing platter in the entree was amazing and the grilled octopus was so tender and full of flavour.. my sweet tooth really enjoyed the Eaton Mess for dessert. Thanks for a lovely meal in a lovely place right next to the fishing boats
R. L.
Food was very delicious, tastiest Teppanyaki in town. Chef Yugi special sauces make all the difference!
Talented chefs and very entertaining. Have made our dinner 'special' and you get what you paid for.
Give this guys a go and you wont be disappointed!
K. W.
We just had a brilliant lunch at the Tempest seafood restaurant and teppanyaki. Chef Lukey made it a wonderful teppanyaki experience and the food was fantastic! Thank you.
R. C.
I have been eating at Tempest for a long time, the food always of the highest quality. It was a nice surprise to learn that they have now a Peruvian Chef.
The ceviche was superb, not to mention the seafood rice.
Will definitely come again soon 👍🏽
N. K.
Wow what an amazing place. We were shocked at the price compared to the food. Totally worth it. Yugi was our Chef and he was so awesome. I haven’t laughed so hard like that in a long time. He was so funny and great to chat with. I really recommend giving this place a try. It won’t disappoint. Great job Yugi, thanks for a great dinner.
C. H.
Celebrated the birthday of our 5 year old twins here and had a fantastic experience. Chef Yugi was very entertaining and everyone had a really fun time. The only thing I'd tweak just a tiny bit is that some of the food was a little too salty for our tastes. But I highly recommend the experience.
R. E.
Just had amazing seafood within metres of the trawlers that caught it. Great spot, great food and great service! Yummo!!
P. M.
food was first class, 6 star meals... tasted amazing, presented brilliantly... the service however did not match the food and when you visit a venue like this, you expect the service to be great... it just wasn't...
We were never served water throughout the whole visit although other patrons were.
The water glasses were on the table two out of the four were dirty, one with a large chunk of dried something in the bottom of it.
There was only pepper, no salt on the table.
we were there with our two children 5 and 9 but were never given kids menus, had to ask for those after being there for a while.
We were never asked if we wanted a second drink, we have to ask after having empty glasses for some time.
Our main plates were half cleared, then we were offered dessert, they didn't take the rest of the plates, a few minutes later a different person came a took one other plate... some time later we were served dessert but still had dirty plates, including prawn shells on the table, had to call the waitress back who dropped off the desserts to clear the dirty plates...
one waitress dropped a knife, another waitress walks straight passed it... a not my jobs type attitude...
when we looked ta the bill after leaving we were charged for the 2 kids soft drinks even though they were meant to be included in the kids meals at $18.00 dollars - turns a reasonable kids meal into an expensive one when charged another $4.00
None of these things by themselves are much of a drama but when all of this happens in the same visit it just shows and lack of care, its bad planning and makes for a much lessor experience than it should... a real shame.
L. L.
Dined at Tempest for the Valentines Day Special. Our first time at this restaurant. Lovely setting beside the marina and the Seafood Platter to share was delicious. The desserts of Creme Caramel and Tiramisu were okay but the Tiramisu was a bit dry. The waitress was nice but left us waiting for ages before she started to clear our table after we had our mains but didn't come back to finish the job until after our dessert arrived. Then we had to wait for dessert cutlery and then only had spoons and no forks. I dropped to four stars because I felt the service could have been better. We would probably go back though.
K. J.
Brilliant evening with 4 foodie friends up from Melbourne. All of us were impressed with the service, ambiance and most importantly the food and cocktails!
Seafood was the star of the night and each and everyone of us dined in spectacular fashion.
Highly recommend this venue.
f. B.
We shared two tempest seafood platters between the four of us last night, NYE. The best seafood we’ve ever had and the young staff were exceptional. Started with a cheeky and great cocktail. Thank you 🙏 we are very grateful for such a lovely experience eating excellent seafood over the water with great great service
S. M.
We dined last night with 2 young children (3 and 5). Tempest staff were accommodating and made an extra effort to ensure our children were comfortable, happy and entertained. All the food was delicious and we enjoyed the fun games at the end of dinner.
V. D.
Girls get together. The service and food was exceptional. Our waiter Josh very professional and happy to have a joke. Thanks Josh had a great time. 🥂
N. k. S.
The best place to eat seafood, big portions and fast service
M. P.
I had been to Tempest about 2 years ago and had the seafood platter and wow! They have really upped their game! We had the Tempest platter for two (8th October 2021) and we thoroughly enjoyed it. There was a great selection of seafood and my cocktail was very tasty (Rose Lychee Martini)
The platter was very filling and we were unable to finish it even though we both have a good appetite.
Tempest you would get 5 stars of you put a garnish in my Martini and if you made the lobster without the mornay sauce. It's a bit of a tragedy in our opinion to mess with something delicious with and overpowering sauce.
All in all, great service and a real improvement on the food so well done. 🦞🍸
F. S.
So glad we came for Teppanyaki lunch at Tempest. Fine dining with a show that's entertaining and interactive. Chef Yugi and his team do really know how to prepare a great meal as well as provide entertainment. Kids or adults will enjoy it. You can select your own or choose a suggested set menu.
E.
Seafood platter is amazing. Great choice of cocktails. Sangria is lovely too. Could put a crab in there to complete the assortment, but can’t really complain with what you do get. The staff could do with some enthusiasm. Seems more like a chore than being there to provide a service.
R. V.
Enjoyed the Teppanyaki . Chef Yugi was really entertaining. Food was perfectly cooked and flavourful.
S. B.
Amazing. Fresh prawns and bugs, and the steak was cooked perfectly. Staff were super helpful and attentive, we'll definitely be back!
E. L.
Fantastic experience, food was fresh and beautiful! Cooked before our eyes perfectly. We absolutely loved the show that came along with it. Look forward to going back one day. Was a five star experience.
S. F.
Another wonderful meal during one of the busiest holidays..Easter! The freshest and plumpest of oysters only surpassed by the juicy prawns and Moreton Bay Bugs. Our lovely server was always smiling and considerate of our needs. Perfect day on the waters edge. We must try Teppanyaki next visit. Thank you.
s. B.
My husband and I shared a seafood platter. I found the food to be a little bland. There was a good selection though.
The restaurant itself is lovely and the view of the boats with their lights on was a nice touch. Great breeze and the was impeccable.
I will go again but not order the platter.
M. T.
Not cheap, but the seafood is top quality! Worth every dollar. Our meals took a while to get to the table so ordering entrees is probably a good idea - they're very good especially the ceviche. The view is very nice and the staff is friendly and helpful
I. W.
We have come to Tempest a few times in the past, however today the service was the best we've experienced. I didn't catch the lady's name, but I did thank her personally.
The new menu was also fantastic and food exceptional.
Under new management is obviously doing great things. We will definitely be coming back.
M. D.
Wonderful location, fabulous service & the food was out of this world! Will definitely be back! Thanks for a fantastic experience.
M. R.
For those who used to come here when it was Morgan's and their seafood platter was great then, well I tried their tempest platter today and it was AMAZING... definitely worth a visit. The staff were great also.
C. B.
The food was excellent. I ordered the Tempest Basket and my wife the Red Emperor. Both were cooked to perfection.
The service was 10 out of ten. The presentation of drinks was novel and attractive.
S. a. P. N.
The experience from the time when we made the phone call to book to the food and service was great . Mitch served us and his customer service is second to none. What a great employee he is. Thank you Mitch for making the evening of 28/4/22 an amazing experience.
M. S.
My daughter took me for lunch today and the salmon and mussels was one of the best meals I've had. The Lindt torte was also excellent. Her Red Emporer was perfectly cooked and the drinks selection was vast, a delicious Watermelon Martini. The staff were friendly, helpful, knowledgeable, attentive and efficient. View was also amazing. I ate the food before remembering to take photos unfortunately.
T. Y.
My husband loves the food there! It’s his go-to place now.
L. C. R. P. L.
Great venu.
Atmosphere is a bit lacking.
However our guy(chef) was clearly new and a bit shy. Food was cooked well.
Nice flavours. Attentive staff.
N. V.
No matter what you choose, the food is always above average at Tempest. The Tempura Prawns were large and juicy coated with a light tempura batter. I sampled the Gaytime cocktail and will do so again on my next visit, just to make sure it's as good as I remembered!
D. R.
All I can say is AMAZING! We recently celebrated a mates birthday and all 8 of us were impressed with everything. Between us we had a wide spread of different menu items and all of it was delicious and seriously generous portion sizes. The professional and efficient staff also made for a memorable experience, and we are looking forward to coming back.
G. S.
We had dinner here for the first time recently and will definitely be back! The food was fantastic and the service was excellent! The menu had plenty of choices for all with seafood, steak, pasta etc. Good range of drinks, beer, wine and cocktails which were reasonably priced. There's on-site parking and the restaurant is wheelchair friendly. Plenty of space between tables, so we didn't feel like we were crammed in like some places.
E. F.
Our lunch was for my husband’s 73rd birthday. It was special because 12 months ago he was diagnosed with brain cancer and we didn’t think then that he’d still be with us for this birthday. Thank you for a lovely meal and KD gave very attentive service to our table.
Regards
Elizabeth
M. K.
Beautiful seafood, extensive drink list, great service and a nice view. What more could you want? It's worth the money and a perfect place for a special occasion. We had a wonderful time. Will be back.
R. M.
Great food, great fun. Definitely recommend.
Lukie was our chef and made the evening lots of fun while he cooked some of the best seafood I've had in Brisbane. Great menu selection. If you're having four meat/fish selections, make sure you arrive hungry!!
M. S.
It was amazing. We had a party of 6 (4 adults and 2 young children). SAM.I.AM was so good and funny with everyone. The food was amazing, the performance even better. It’s a lot of food. An extra 15 just to slow things down would be nice, even if In these COVID times you pay a few more dollars to slow each course down by $1 min (the relax package)
M. D.
Some of the best food we have had in all of Brisbane!!!!! Absolutely delicious. We live over an hour away and will come again regularly for sure. Service was brilliant and Leo was fantastic!
J. C.
I would highly recommend this place! We had an amazing 3 course meal and everything was great. The steak was a little overdone (asked for medium rare and was more medium well done). But otherwise everything was perfect.
E. J.
I recently went to Tempest for my work Christmas party initially I had my concerns as I'm Vegan but when making the booking they assured us that Vegan dishes wouldn't be a problem. The service was fantastic, the restaurant was beautiful and clean not to mention right on the Marina. Chef Ericko made me the most delicious Smoked Tofu dish which absolutely blew me away, the flavours went so well together and all the ingredients were fresh and vibrant. I also had the Dukkah and Vegan Arancini Balls which were just as impressive. It was such a great day and I loved it so much that I went back again 2 days later and was completely blown away all over again when Chef Ericko made me Sweet & Sour Cauliflower bites. Can't wait for my next visit to Tempest you guys are amazing keep up the great work!!
K. A.
Second time here and it did not disappoint. Last time we had Chef Lufke and this time we had Chef Lugi - amazing! Delicious food, lots of choices on the wine list, and great entertainment! Also impressed by the kids menu; $20 for basically all the same entrees as for the adults, so they can get involved in the fun, plus some delicious teriyaki chicken!
M. F. A. C. M.
We booked into the Seafood Restaurant for our staff Christmas lunch. The staff were very accommodating in letting 2 of us in management in our company arrive an hour early for a business meeting before the others joined us. The food was great and the service fantastic also! Thanks guys!
C. K.
Forgive me If I got your (her) name wrong, but Ella? Who served us tonight was amazing- great, friendly service and couldn't fault.
The Cook was hilarious I couldn't stop laughing, the food was amazing!
Couldn't fault anything, thanks for quality service, delicious food and great entertainment 😁
Highly recommend!!
A. M.
Table of 6 celebrating my mothers 95th bday recently. Venue was wheel chair friendly. Fantastic dining experience from start to finish. Staff were welcoming - service was impeccable. Food amazing /11 out of 10👍 delicious fresh seafood with generous proportions. My son ( who is fussy) claims the reef & beef just melted in his mouth, prawns were fresh & succulent. Well done team. Will make this venue our regular outing , Thankyou.
E. S.
I have been to the Tempest Seafood Restaurant twice this year and both times have been fantastic! The food is delicious and customer service was perfect. Would definitely recommend, especially if you’re looking for a nice place to celebrate at.
C. G.
Customer service was really good and so was the entrees and mains. Good sizes and very tasty. Just need to work on the desserts for the last star! Great location too.
G. M.
We tried the Teppanyaki Grill Restaurant and it was so much fun, our chef was so funny and the food was delicious. We got a great time having lunch while at the same time we were watching how our food was being made through a show of which we also participated :)
P. O.
High quality fresh superb food, attentive, happy and friendly staff - can not fault anything. Great location too. We drive over an hour to get here. Our favourite restaurant.
G. C.
Two visits in one month now and both times the food didn't disappoint. The front man is a bit stiff and could loosen up a little but the food more than compensates. Fast becoming a favourite.
S. M.
Such a beautiful Restaurant. The setting is perfect for a Seafood dinner. The food was awesome, so fresh and delicious. The staff are very helpful. Would highly recommend. 👍
R. P.
We chose the Teppanyaki Grill Lunch for my husband's birthday. It was our first time at the Tempest Seafood Restaurant and we thoroughly enjoyed our experience. The entire staff from reception, table service to the awesome cheffs was a delight to interact with. The entertainement was awesome and the quality and taste of the food was excellent. Great value for money. We will be back and recommend to family, friends and clients!
M. S.
This was my first tepenyaki experience for quite some time and absolutely lived up to all my expectations. The food and atmosphere were amazing and I could not complement our chef enough.
D. M.
Hey had a great entertaining Tepenyaki service with several friends.
Food quality was mostly excellent.
...Except the Prawns, not only powdery, but over done.
Which is ironic as the meal service was very hasty and pressured to eat quickly.
But overall for an experience for the inexperienced it was a nice time.
...Oh, but was perplexed when I ordered a bottle of saki which took 20 minutes to serve, as they had to go to a storage area to get it, and evidently unable to serve chilled.
Bit odd for a Japanese establishment.
L. S.
Food was delicious. The linguini was light yet buttery comfort food! What an excellent cocktail list! Tyler, our waiter was efficient and attentive but not intrusive. A great night out.
O. B.
5 stars. Good customer service and wonderful food. Great view as well.
P. G.
Shared a lovely meal with my husband Sunday night. The staff were amazing and the food was hot and delicious. They were very busy so expected a bit of a wait but were pleasantly surprised in the speed of service. From the Golden Gaytime cocktail to our Lindt Ganache dessert, everything was fantastic. Especially the service. We had been given a voucher for Christmas 2019 and with Covid were unable to use til now and even though past the expiration date, the voucher was honoured. Special mention for great customer service from Christopher, Highly recommend a meal at Tempest.
B. J.
Omg! We were so impressed! Lunch first time in a long while as a local! Amazing food and service!!
Waterfront location ! If u keep this up u will kill it! Fresh amazing seafood! Stick to what u r doing!!
w. B.
The ambience, food, service and staff make Tempest Seafood Restaurant and Teppanyaki Grill the most pleasurable place in and around Brisbane to have a seafood lunch with someone special. My husband and I thoroughly enjoy everything about Tempest Seafood Restaurant and will keep returning whenever we can.
S. D.
Have been to both the Teppanyaki and the Seafood restaurant. Both were wonderful.
The Teppanyaki is a lot of fun for the family or for a date night - a good selection of set menu options and add ons, a good beverage selection too, including a range of sake.
The seafood restaurant is also great - if you can get a table on the water its just lovely in good weather. Highly recommend the Oysters Mitoyaki and the peruvian ceviche.
L. K.
A wonderful restaurant. We dined al fresco rather than in the restaurant itself with views of the trawlers and marina as well as the sunset, so a great outlook.
The staff were excellent, attentive and on hand at all times. They were courteous and couldn't do enough for us.
The food was a amazing, cannot recommend highly enough the tempura prawns and the sticky pork belly with scallopsfor entrees, as well as the lobster we had for the main course. All was cooked to perfection and tasted scrumptious. We will definitely be going back.
Thank you Tempest for making our 10th anniversary extra special.
B. J.
Amazing food and our chef was brilliant . Such a fun, enterprising night . All staff were great , wonderful service . 10/10
M. H.
The best best seafood I have had in a long time. Generous servings, all elements cooked to perfection, staff were friendly and professional. Will definitely be dining again soon, can't wait to try the rest of the menu.
T. H.
Customer service was top notch. My new wife and I celebrated with our family after our wedding here and thoroughly enjoyed the dishes on the lunch menu. The scenery is fantastic, hovering over the marina, being able to see the countless bream swimming about below.
S. S.
Everyone at Tempest were really great, Our cook was amazing and very friendly. All my family had an amazing time and we will definitely be back.
J. H.
Fun exciting, can't wait to see the renovation. Loki was so much fun cooking for us. (hope spelt right) 😊
P. M. a. G.
Food is fresh, tasty and affordable, we enjoyed the atmosphere, its relaxed and casual... the staff were accommodating and prompt. We absolutely loved the teppanyaki... The chefs were superbly funny with those jokes!
A real wonderful dining experience, do yourself a favour and try it!
Also my kids were entertained and were able to sit still and eat!
Loved it!
F. 2. A.
We had the Tempest Seafood Platter and I am afraid to say, the Platter beat us 🤷.
There was that much yummy food that we could not eat it all. It was the first time we had tried Batfish wings and they were really nice. We had a bit of everything and then kept going around and around and we couldn't finish it.
Great night thanks
B. C.
Slight Mixup with Table Request but was sorted on arrival without any fuss. ...Table Service Excellent. Food very good although maybe a little pricy. We had a Window Table which was very nice views. Recommended.
a.
Great food, good portion size and Teppanyaki chef Luki was so entertaining, funny and friendly. First time here at Tempest, but we will definitely go back.Wonderful live experience.
t. s.
Restaurant staff tried their best, but were understaffed, therefore some delays/confusion. Food was tasty. Great drink chooses. Staff very pleasant. Decor probably needs some improvements/updating.
B. G.
Absolutely brilliant as always. The chef at the teppanyaki table was funny and brilliant at his job. Always a great laugh and a great feed at the same time
J. T.
We had the teppanyaki dinner as a group of 6.
The chefs did everything and every joke to engage the diners. Occasionally the jokes were atrocious but you got to give them points for their enthusiasm. After setting fires to the Teppanyaki and making the meat tasty with Japanese “Pepsi”, is followed by catch the egg with your mouth challenge and catch the bowl of fried rice. Unless your mood is deeply disturbed, most people will find this an entertaining meal.
Food: Very tasty. I didn’t think I was going to like Moreton bay bug but it was absolutely delicious.
The chicken, salmon and scallops also very good.
But I think the lime sorbet was a wonderful ending to cleanse the palate.
Price: Good price for the food and the non alcoholic mocktails only $10
Atmosphere: I’m sure most people will have a good time. I thought it was rather noisy at times but I’m not in my youth, and I’m not naturally attracted to big crowds and parties.
Seatings: tables and seatings are compact and when there’s a fire (plus menopause hot flushes), it was a bit hot sometimes, temperature wise.
Would I go again? I suppose, for special occasions such as birthdays.
N.
Amazing!! Chef Yugi was fire 🔥
Food was exceptional with very generous portions in comparison to most other teppanyaki restaurants. I will be back for sure!
M. K.
The food was delicious and the choice of wine equally so. Service was good. Location excell. Only unusual aspect was being charged $7.20 for a doppio.
E. S.
We had the best experience tonight with the staff at Teppanyaki! We were in tears from the amount of laughter shared tonight. The food was just amazing. We were there for Fathers day dinner and have never had that type of experience and just to see the smiles on my family's face esp my dad and nephews was worth every dollar! #ChefYugi our chef was so funny kept us entertained the whole time! Thank you so much!!
N. J.
Friendly staff. Been here a few times with and without reservations. Staff were accommodating where possible. Great atmosphere and food.
D. W.
Just had the fish & chips with salad (coleslaw with a couple small pieces of lettuce) service was average, staff friendly & helpful, meal $$$ (could get a feed for whole family at a fish chip shop) a bit noisy with some loud intoxicated dinners.
But would be a Good place to take someone for a special lunch/dinner
C. B.
Delicious food, lovely ambience and great service. Definitely coming back to try the seafood basket that looked incredible.
K.
Amazing Seafood Platter! We bought a voucher from Groupon and won't regret. Seafood is so fresh and the platter is huge! The view from the restaurant is stunning. Excellent service by staff. We will definitely return.
F. S.
I couldn’t believe a dinner session can be this entertaining. The Teppanyaki was great and Chef Yugi got fast hands 😆.
It is recommended to book prior arrival as the place gets really busy at dinner time.
Thank you for making my birthday special. Will come again.
B.
Excellent nite, we did the Tepanyaki, chef was skilled and funny, very talented with knife, fork and spatula. Food was awesome, very tasty and plenty of it.
K. W.
Thoroughly enjoyed our Easter Friday lunch. Service was great, food fantastic. Can’t wait to return.

Tempest Seafood Restaurant and Teppanyaki Grill
I was visiting Brisbane to see my family. I suggested we go find somewhere and have a seafood lunch. Mum suggested Tempest which is near Morgan's Seafood Market.
I was with my parents and one of my daughters. Without a reservation we were seated at a table for six on the upper level, which as it turned out was perfect. It gave us more elbow room.
On perusing the menu we agreed to two Scarborough Platters. Each platter has both hot and cold seafood suitable for two people.
We had to wait about 30 minutes but it was worth the wait. The platters were large rectangular metal trays on a heavy wooden stand. The set up is impressive.
Each platter consisted of Moreton Bay bugs, hot garlic prawns, cooked cold prawns, battered whiting fillets, a pot of cooked mussels in a tomato-based sauce, sushi rolls with the associated accoutrement of pickled ginger and soy sauce, natural oysters, kilpatrick oysters, smoked salmon, calamari, mixed fruit, salad, and the best chips I've eaten in a long time.
This would have to be one of the best value hot and cold seafood platters I've enjoyed in a long time. The mussels were a real treat, my had daughter had been expressing how she was not a fan of mussels because she had only experienced the cold variety on offer at seafood buffets. Such mussels are often a little chewy and tasteless. These hot mussels were tender and very tasty.
The oysters were small but plump and full of flavour. The Moreton Bay bugs were quite large and full of flesh. I really liked the addition of the sushi rolls too.
The only disappointments, if I can call them that, were the beer battered fish and the crumbed calamari. Both were a little soggy. That said the fish was delicious and the calamari was tender.
I'd highly recommend the Scarborough Platter for two at Tempest Seafood Restaurant.
J. J. R.
Heaven of fresh seafood its kinda pricey but worth it. Loved their seafood platter. Thinking of coming back on this resto...
T.
Chef Yugi put on a great show, and the food was great. Highly recommended to visit with children. We felt well looked after and had a great experience. Highly recommended. Chef Yugi is a great asset.
C. D.
Very quiet just our party of 5 and another one having a birthday party. They have a few different menu options. But they don't let you swap menu items during the week. One chef is very artistic with his actions whereas the other one is more a skilled chef without the fancy movements. It really all comes down to the atmosphere and getting in the mood to make a good night of it all.
A. C. B. W.
Very nice experience.
The head chef was really playful and happy! The food tastes very good too. The kids loved it!
C. W.
Wonderful service from Emily. Who went out of her way to get every child two cushions for raised seating, cleaned up several broken bowls etc. Chef was amazingly entertaining with throwing food skills and food very flavoursome. Kids also found the lobsters and crabs in tanks entertaining.
s. s.
Fantastic food and great service! the teppanyaki show was amazing, cant wait to come back, We thoroughly recommend Tempest.

Absolutely loved our experience. Chef was great staff were so attentive and I love how clean the whole experience was.

It was our first ever Teppanyaki lunch at the Tempes Seafood Restaurant and Teppanyaki.
I can honestly say the head chef Yugi is the greatest cook I have met so far. He was hilarious and kept everyone laughing with all the interactive food games, and the chef assistant Lufki was kind and helpful. The restaurant just out over the water, and you can dine while watching the boats in the marina.
The food was absolutely delicious and left you completely satisfied. The Moreton bay bug was heavenly. Thanks to chef Yugi’s secret sauce. We definitely plan on coming back! Maybe to try their famous “all you can eat seafood buffet” for a very reasonable price on the last Thursday of the month. Would recommend to anyone to go check it out also.

Great meals and service with the most amazing venue right on the waterfront.
The menu is updated regularly but keeps the favourites.
Great cocktails and great friendly staff.
We always love the top quality meals and service here.
S. A.
Comfortable and relaxed setting for a dinner (romantic or family), a bit expensive but really fun.
We made our plates, recommended oysters and Moreton Bay Bugs and for something more spicy go for the mussels.
J.
Highly recommended. We have been several times and everything is consistent. The most delicious seafood available. Presentation is exceptional. Staff are super friendly and helpful. Their menu has something for everyone. Dining overlooking ocean (or the prawn trawlers - depending on the time of day) lovely sea breeze either way. Bar staff will even alter drinks to accommodate special needs.

The best seafood I've had in a very long time. Every part of the tempest platter we ordered was cooked to perfection and was delicious. The price is quite steep however that is to be expected with the sheer size of the dishes and the quality of the ingredients. Clearly fresh produce and fantastic service in a great location. If I could think of any criticism it would be the decor is slightly dated and could do with an upgrade but everything else was fantastic. Highly recommend.
L. r.
As usual, the best seafood in town. Paired with the three cocktails, what a way to spend a Friday afternoon. Staff very attentive and maitre'd, Leo, extremely personable. A balmy breeze rippled through as well. To die for.
A. O.
The food was very delicious and fresh. I had the beef skewers with the Moreton bay bugs. Unfortunately the service was not very attentive. Once we had finished with our main meal we were not asked if we wanted to look at the desert menu, wanted to order another drink or coffee.
M. C.
Proving it wasn't a fluke, our second visit to Tempest was every bit enjoyable as the first. The food was delicious and the time taken between entree and main was perfect. Soft shell grabs are a must!
N. d.
Thanks once again to the team at Tempest for yet another fantastic eating experience. Also, Xavier and Paige for their attentive service, during a busy night.
A. F.
Was a bit worried about dining for Teppanyaki here as I am not much of a seafood lover... However, the Fuji set on offer (lamb cutlet, eye fillet) with wagyu upgrade was perfect for me. The lamb cutlet melts in your mouth and the steak was cooked to perfection. Chef yugi was very skilled, entertaining, and made sure everyone was included. I will definitely be coming back soon!
Z. Z.
What an amazing night! We had great food and lots of laughs. Staff is super friendly and very accommodating.
C. B.
Been to the Teppanyaki Grill twice. Both times the food was excellent and the atmosphere so much fun. Credit to the chefs and especially Lukey. Great venue and experience. Highly recommended.
J. J.
Amazing teppanyaki experience! Food was fresh and very tasty and the cocktails were on point. The entertainment from the chef was by far the best part of the night. Had soo many laughs!!! Very generous with food portions. Great choice for dinner - will be back again!

The staff were unbelievable considering the added pressure of having to ask clients if they were vaccinated.The were very patient as a member of our party tried to find her vax certificate and went out of their way to make us feel welcome.Further the table service we received was excellent.
I highly recommend Tempest Seafood Restaurant
K. S.
We had a beautiful lunch and the service was great. It is really easy to book online which is great also. Can't wait to dine again soon.
J. W.
We had three courses, all delicious but in particular the lamb loin & scallops were sensational and the steak beautifully cooked. My mother had cured salmon which she said was great. Our service was impeccable and the price was very reasonable considering there were three of us having three courses, a few cocktails/gins/wines. Can’t speak more highly of our experience.
D. S.
We had a delicious meal at Tempest Teppanyaki and the Chef was skilful and entertaining!! Totally recommend this restaurant for good food and a laugh!! We had Chef Yugi’s special for two and everything was delicious!!
D. Y.
Awesome as always. Had the Scarborough Platter, all very fresh and tasty 😋 struggled to get through it all. Plenty of variety to satisfy the taste buds.
The new outdoor area is now open and it’s very good, you are looking over the trawlers and marina.
There are new owners now but it doesn’t seem to have affected the fantastic food and service.
R. H.
Another great experience at teppanyaki. Always fun and entertaining for the kids.
Our chef was fantastic and the watermelon Margherita’s were on point!
N. W.
We had a great night. Lovely spot and nice to sit outside. Food was yum. We had oysters for entree and then the seafood rice, garlic prawns, curry snapper and the basket. All were amazing! Staff Lovely and friendly. We would definitely recommend and will be back.
S. O.
Unreal. Every fish in the entree ("kaisen") was absolutely superb. I had barramundi, "bugs" (that cream sauce was AMAZING), prawns, and scallops as my seafood offering. And the miso soup?? Perfection. I've never had tepanyaki before then, but this made me an immediate Fanboy. Well worth the $75 AUD!
E. Q.
Food is fantastic, staff are very attentive and helpful. Beautiful cocktails. We will be back soon.
B. F.
We had the seafood platter and it was the best we have had and we have eaten a few! The word divine came to mind as I ate the calamari, it was melt in your mouth tender. The oysters had so much flavour. So we will definitely be back to try other dishes on the menu in future. Service was great and very friendly.
D. Y.
I am a regular customer at Tempest Restaurant. I don’t know if the seafood is fresh or not but it always looks, smells and taste fresh. Last night we had the Tempest platter again and they have a new way to do the mussels and boy are they good! The lobster was awesome but there was no way we could finish the platter as it was just so much. We did give it a decent crack though. Service was very attentive and most obliging. My partner loves the cocktails. We always recommend Tempest to our friends.
C. E.
Great birthday fun at the Teppanyaki. Excellent quality food with large portions. Good value for money. Will go again.
C. S.
Really enjoyed our dinner with friends at Tempest last night. Good food, good service and the location is great . Will be back - thank you

L. R.
Always a pleasure dining here, the food is amazing and the staff are very pleasant and professional. 5 star service and quality.
M. M.
Had a great dinner, lots of fun. The food was fresh and tasty & the drinks were perfect. The kids love watching them cook the food in front of them. The cook was entertaining and friendly. I will be back again thanks guys.
M. M.
Three stars for the chef. Tired place, needs a good tidy up. Food OK but not spectacular. Wouldn't pay $72/head for calamari, chicken and a shared piece of steak. Might have been nice in the 70s. A better alternative would have been the Sakura for $56/head - prawns, chicken and eye fillet. Add a very small bottle of Saki between two and I'm thinking for a Groupon Deal - $59 would have been been appropriate rather than $89. The chef saved the night.
T. E.
Nice location, good options on the menu unless you're vego. Food came reasonably quickly and tasted very fresh. However, for the money it maybe needs some more attention to detail. Starter portion of mussels had too many unopened. Prawn cutlets in main course are not deveined. Some foh staff were just going through the motions. Was still enjoyable.
G. R.
We were so excited to find Tempest Seafood online and have a special dinner there this evening but unfortunately the experience doesn’t in any way match the price point.
From the moment we walked in the service was unfriendly almost bordering on feeling like we were a nuisance for choosing to dine there. Despite having a booking and the restaurant being very slow the table was not ready with a high chair as we requested and they attempted to seat us away from the water when there were many empty tables next to it which were not set or clean. When I asked the guy if we could wait for them to clean and sit at one of them instead he gave me the dirtiest look and really rude response. Getting the order taken and everything from there was fine and the food was good apart from the calamari which had barely any calamari on it and lots of fried flour however the side plates were never refreshed, so we ate everything with the taste of mussels and we didn’t have the proper cutlery for anything - no spoon for mussels or ceviche , no oyster fork etc and servers were not around to ask (although at that point we were aware them doing their job annoyed them so we probably wouldn’t have anyway since we wanted to enjoy our nice meal out).
We waited a bit for table to be cleared and helped ourselves to menu from other table to look at deserts before we decided not to have any. When we finished and paid (approx. 170$ for 2 of us with our 8 month old baby) we left the restaurant, walking by 3 employees who didn’t even acknowledge us to say goodbye or thank you.
Overall we wouldn’t return due to the bad service regardless of the food.

I had such a great bday today with Luke our chef and comedy host at the Teppanyaki bar with my family. Thanks Luke you made my day 😍

We had the most wonderful lunch at Tempest, the food was amazing, the wine was plentiful and the service couldn't be more accommodating - I would definitely recommend this restaurant!

Excellent service, friendly staff, great food. The Tempest platter was very good. Enough for three unless you’re ravenous!
M. H.
We had an absolutely lovely dinner. Hats off to the chef. Best angus steak, tender and lean. Cooked just as ordered. The Red Emperor was wonderful as well. The service was excellent with friendly and cheerful staff. Will definitely go back again, especially for the view over looking the boats. Thank you for a lovely evening.

Very nice meals. Steak was amazing and my dessert was the icing on the cake. Friendly attentive staff

To be honest the chef over cooked the seafood and the rice was dripping in oil.
The restaurant it self is lovely as you sit and look out at the boats and ocean sunset .

My partner and I dined at Tempest Seafood for dinner.
Our whole experience was magnificent and we will definitely be back and will be recommending this restaurant to all our friends.
Our waitress Shay was great and made us feel welcome and comfortable from the time she introduced herself as our waitress.
She was attentive, professional, well polished, well presented and knows exactly what she is talking about.
We were very indecisive with what to order and Shay took the time to answer all of our questions about the menu and could explain the menu and each meal very thoroughly. Shay took the time to find out what seafood we enjoyed and then recommended dishes that she thought we would enjoy.
My partner and I both went with her recommendation for our main and entree and Shay also paired a drink with each course that fitted with the meal and flavours very well.
We had a mix dozen of oysters with the glass of pipers brook champagne that was recommended.
My partner then had the lamb and scallops. The lamb was cooked to perfection and the “zema” cab merlot that Shay paired with this meal fitted perfectly. I then had the bug and prawn linguine. My god!! It was to die for. Again the wine that Shay had paired with this meal went perfectly.
The presentation and flavours of the food, the location and the atmosphere of the place was a 10/10.
Our whole dining experience was more than what we expected and we cannot wait to dine with you guys again.
My partner and I thank your friendly staff and we are glad we have found our new favourite place to dine.
D. C.
Love this place. The food was amazing and the service was great.
F. H.
Had the best time!! Food was nothing less than perfect, and compliments to our superb chef Lukey and the team, thank you guys we'll be back!!
P. A.
Placed our order received entree and was told they didn't have one of the mains we ordered we would need to reorder then the reordered main came out with something in it that the person doesn't like which wasn't mentioned on the menu and wouldn't of been ordered pasta was very bland And was disappointing service was average one waitress was great the rest not so had to continually ask rather than be asked I won't be rushing back and compared to when I was last a few years ago it's gone downhill and it's a let down when the best thing was the cocktails otherwise it would of been 2 stars
R. H.
What can I say except it was superb. Staff were friendly & very efficient. The food was absolutely divine & prices were reasonable. We will be back
K. C.
The meals were filling and delicious. The staff were attentive, polite and entertaining. We had a lovely evening. Thank you
E. J.
What a glorious experience. The seafood platter was exceptional, we were sitting outside in the shade with ocean view. Staff was very friendly. Couldn't praise more.
T. B.
A super entertaining, fun and new dining experience at the teppanyaki grill last night! Food was good with generous portions. Came with a group of five and everybody left happy no matter what set we ordered.
The highlight though was definitely the entertainment, with the chef being the star of the show. Really cool knife and spatula tricks, a flaming onion volcano, good jokes and banter, as well as some cheeky games (catching your own bowls of fried rice??? an egg toss? Amazing). Definitely felt like a bunch of friends having a laugh by the end of the night. Thanks heaps to Chef Luki for making it a very memorable birthday dinner! Terima kasih banget ya mas!
Highly recommended for an interesting, unique dinner with your loved ones. Just make sure not to drop fried rice all over your pants during the tossing games 😆
S. G.
Enjoyed lunch there the other week, couldn't find anything to complain about. Friendly staff, absolute 10/10 on our seafood platter.
O. H.
Visited on a Thursday for the all you can eat seafood buffet. Freshly caught prawns, oysters, bugs and crab straight from the trawler anchored right in front of the resturant. Dessert was delicious. Well worth the money.
B. A.
Beautiful setting, great food. Lukey was amazing, talented and very entertaining. Definitely recommend.
M. W.
I think that the fact the restaurant was packed on a Monday for lunch speaks for itself. Wonderful seafood and attentive staff.
D. C.
Great night, chef's were great and the food was fantastic, just the service before and after needs a little polish, otherwise I would recommend as a good fun night out!😄
L. P.
Had the seafood platter for two
Was amazingly fresh & tasty
One of the best I’ve had😊
L. L.
Service amazing, food perfect, cocktails devine, ambience and view spot on...what more could you ask for!
S. S.
Nice location, make sure you ask for outside table. Seems they are doing functions now as well. Food was a big improve from our previous visit a year ago or so. Though the main special I had was not good, none of the flavours seemed to work. Best to stick to the main menu as everything I saw come out and what my partner had was good. Good to see overall the restaurant is on the improve.
T. G.
We went for our anniversary last night food and service brilliant didn’t wait for anything.Well done Tempest keep up the good work

My sister and 1 year old daughter had lunch in the Japanese section for the first time on Friday. The food was amazing but what I loved the most was the cheffs enthusiasm and good sense of humour while they were cooking for us. It was a nice surprise and a very relaxing lunch as they were so much fun and kind. Even my 1 year old was so happy the whole time and ate so well. I highly reccomend this restaurant for its great food and outstanding service.
K. L.
All round great experience, even for the kids. Lots of cool tricks, games, yummy food and 🔥 FIRE!

We have lived in Redcliffe all our lives and Tempest is one our favourite restaurants, much better than the predecessor. The freshness and quality of the food is outstanding. The staff are on hand and Leo always attentive. Thank you
M. H.
Amazing place for food and entertainment whilst preparing the food. I couldn't catch the bowl with rice and felt that he should not have carried on throwing more bowls for me to catch. Would have appreciated to be asked if I wanted to try again. Highly recommend visiting. It is expensive but the worth it.
M. B.
The food was perfect. We had a starter platter of shell fish served with a cheese cob on the side followed by our main courses of Barramundi and Red Emperor. We were both satisfied and surprised at the size of the serves. The staff were so cheerful and worked together as a team which meant there was always someone asking if we needed anything else. They were extra efficient and we shall certainly be back. Thank you to you all.
T. G.
Teppanyaki experience was amazing! Such a fun, engaging atmosphere and the food was fantastic. Would definitely recommend.
D. 0.
Each, very nice surprise, went with several friends and thought they were only a Teppanyaki,
But fear not, the additional waterside restaurant is indeed a pleasant surprise.
Great seafood selection and cooked and served supremely apparently the same chef that runs the teppanyaki.
Several birthday dinners going on the afternoon we were there.
Staff and management were attentive and humourous.
A truely amusing and tasty afternoon.
Top effort.
C. W.
Had an awesome time. Usually can't get through a lunch with 2 kids but they had a better time then us. Luke did a great job. Food was great and so was the delivery. I'll be back!

We had a lunchtime family celebration some two weeks ago. Four adults and one 2 year old infant. Most of the recent reviews I had read had been very negative. But I thought, what the hell, give it a go. Each one of us was well impressed. Three shared a generous sea food platter. My wife had the barramundi and I chose steak- yes I know it’s a seafood specialist - but I like to be different and test the specialists. Result we all really enjoyed our meals.
A. M.
We had a fabulous dining experience with Yugi as our chef and entertainment as he cooked our meal in front of us on the teppanyaki bar. Lots of laughs and our food was beautiful... The staff were lovely and happy to help with drinks or questions. We would highly recommend anyone to visit and enjoy the experience at Tempest Seafood Restaurant - Teppanyaki... Thank you...
A.
Absolutely exceptional every single time. Really recommend exploring the menu! The staff are beautiful, always attentive and add to the truly enjoyable dining experience.
D. M.
Fantastic food and service to match, the kids felt welcome and the staff were happy to answer any of our questions. The platter for two is a must do and easily enough for a couple and full of fresh seafood. Plenty of cocktails available and a decent selection of beer and wine without being extensive.
E. A.
I can't recommend this Restaurant enough!!
Nothing bugs me more than going to a restaurant and to be met with below average food. We have been to Tempest now a few times and from arrival to departure it's such a great experience. The staff are AMAZING, the service is top notch and the food is to die for.
Wine selection is great too 😅
Can't wait to return.
R. S.
Great teppanyaki lunch
Excellent food and engaging entertainment
Yuri is a top chef and a great performer
We are regulars and enjoy every meal
A. P.
I had never tried Teppanyaki before (I am a fussy steak and chips type person), but my wife convinced me to give it a go for lunch, so I did.
The salad was first to come out, it had salad dressing which I can't stand so did not eat that, who goes for salad anyway. The soup came out next, I don't eat soup normally but was tempted to try it, sadly I could not get past the smell :) so I did not eat that either. I heard the people sitting to the side of us say it was delicious, it probably was but I don't handle odd smells very well at all.
Veggies were next, they were beautiful, cooked through perfect but still had a nice crispness to them, not soggy and limp.
I chose Teriyaki chicken and Barramundi, my wife had the steak. It was too much for me but I still ate it all and it was amazing. My wife loved the steak and let me try some it too was beautiful. I will get the chicken and steak next time. The chef finished off the cooking with a fried rice which was different to any fried rice that I have had, but I loved it.
The whole experience overall was great, the staff were really friendly and helpful, the chef was hilarious and it was really cool sitting right there watching him cook. He told jokes, played games and just made the atmosphere perfect. It was all finished off with a really yummy lemon and raspberry sorbet. I will be going back for sure.
D. C.
Have visited Tempest a number of times, always been great....went last night and had Finn he was hillarious 😊
M. J.
We had such a wonderful time at Tempest. Zac was so polite answering the phone when we booked a table. We were served by Jess who looked after us perfectly, we didn't have to try to get her attention because she was always there to serve us. Steven at the bar was also very friendly. Then the food! Of course seafood!! Absolutely delicious to the very last bite! We will return! Thank you
K. D.
Had a great night, food was delicious. Our chef Yugi cooked the food just right and was really entertaining.
Our booking was at 8pm, so had to wait for the previous booking to pay and vacate - could have done with some taking orders so we could have a drink whilst waiting. Also previously with the meal we were supplied with dipping sauces (soya and sesame) but none this time - would have liked the sauces to go with the dishes.
Otherwise a great experience
H. P.
Had a fantastic time! Very entertaining and the food was delicious 😋
J. A.
Food was fantastic, order the seafood platter for 2 with lobster Mornay added. The miso prawns and mussels were 👌
Why not 5 stars? For the price I did expect better service. Interupting conversation many times, didn't set the table 🤷 food actually Ed up this rating.

Seafood signature dish was great! Food was out quickly, service was friendly.

This was our second visit to Tempest, and it doesn’t disappoint. Nothing is too much trouble for the lovely wait staff, and the food is absolutely delicious.the seafood is so fresh and the servings quite generous. As someone with a gluten intolerance, it was nice to see that the majority of menu items were gluten free and that all dishes show their suitability for different dietary requirements. We will definitely be making more visits, as it’s an easy 35 minutes from home.

Best Birthday Dinner Ever. Food cooked to perfection. Chef skillfully an so entertaining had us laughing the moment he introduced himself. All staff were friendly an polite an service was great . So if you want a dining experience with a difference this place is the BEST .I highly recommend it .
H. J.
Went with a group of 10. Was a great experience Yugi was our chef. Excellent showmanship and food. Will be back!
J. W.
Great service, they opened up a table for us even though they were understaffed. The portion sizes were quite generous and I definitely recommend the lamb with scallops and the creme caramel for desert. A little pricey but about what you expect for the sort of food they put out. If you wanted a main + dessert and a drink you'll be paying around $60
D. V.
The attention was amazing.i ordered the pasta with prawns.it was delightful!
Some oysters very fresh...beautiful view.
It ticked all my boxes thank you
P. A.
I had an amazing experience there today in the teppanyaki part of the restaurant, my partner and I were lucky enough to sit with a beautiful family who were celebrating Easter together and we had a wonderful time with them. The price was reasonable for what you received, in fact i actually said to my partner I would be willing to pay the same price and receive less quantity personally as I could not eat it all. We ordered what I believe was the tempest pack. The chef was very entertaining, the food was of a high quality, the wait staff were very friendly, organised, and professional. It's been some time since I have had such a good experience & to top it off the family we sat with were regulars and paid for my partner and I's meals without asking for anything in return. We are so humbled and gracious by such a beautiful act of kindness. Thank you to the beautiful family, the chef & the waiter for a wonderful day. We will be back. P.s. The cocktails were delicious also.
M. D.
Had a great night, the meal was excellent and can absolutely recommend the Scarborough Seafood Platter for 2. So fresh and plenty of it. Capped off with a nice bottle of Chardonnay and very friendly staff made the night for my wife and I even more enjoyable.

What an amazing young team, lovely people, great service . . . the food was next level, all local and fresh with a view of the trawlers it came off. Simply the best seafood dining experience we have ever had. Thanks to the entire Tempest team, we'll be back again and again.

I am so glad we visited this place. We visited this restaurant on Wednesday night. The waitress & waiter were really polite and happy which is rare to see these days. We ordered the reef and beef for two special which is on a Wednesday night and everything was cooked to perfection. Such a pleasant spot on the water as well. Will definitely be back soon!!
K. V. W.
Amazing service from all - waiter & waitress on the day PLUS the chef. Food was absolutely, amazingly, yummy and fantastic. Many items to choose from. View and weather was perfect.
PLUS my mother has epilepsy and music can trigger a seizure - the staff had no issue whatsoever for the music to be turned off.
I have been to Tempest about 4 times now and it still remains one of my favourite restaurants. I can not recommend it more highly.
S. W.
The best seafood meal we have had in such a long time. Grazed thru the entrees so that we got to try quite a few dishes so it was a bit hard to pick a favourite. Tempura Calamari was excellent & the Lamb fillet with watermelon & feta combined beautifully. The fresh seafood was wonderful & the Lindt Chocolate Torte topped off the night.
Great staff with excellent service and wonderful view overlooking the water. We will return.

My partner and I had an amazing time at Tempest. The food was amazing and the chef was entertaining and funny. It was our first teppanyaki experience and we will definitely be going again. Thank you chef!
L. T.
Our waitress was very good at her job and didn’t bat her eyelids when we asked for our calamari to be returned to the kitchen and cooked a wee bit longer - as we could still taste the flour. It was taken away, and a fresh batch cooked in a very timely manner. Sadly it was only just above what we had returned - so we ate up and kept quiet! Everything else was spot on. Thank you Tempest Restaurant 🙏🏼
m. m.
Tried a few different teppanyaki restaurants over the years and Tempest is the best. Love it so much we’ve been multiple times. The first time we went it was a part of Morgan’s, the latest was a week ago and the Teppanyaki is still an amazing experience. The chef on every occasion is amusing and very interactive, the food delicious- even for the fussy eaters and the staff very accommodating. Perfect night out. Can’t recommend it more.
J. A.
Food was delicious and, when ordered, came out in a timely manner. Service was extremely slow. We wanted to order dessert and more drinks but gave up and went home. Prices are not cheap so expected better service. The staff were very friendly though. Would not go back for the seafood however would be tempted by the teppanyaki
J. M.
Fabulous food..great service and an amazing position among the trawlers right on Scarborough marina..

What a wonderful waterfront location. Exciting and delicious menu matched with outstanding service! Will be back for the teppenyaki real soon. Thank you for the best dining experience this year.

We went there yesterday night for my wife’s birthday, and it was fantastic. A little mix up to start with, they sat some people at the teppanyaki tables, and when we arrived there was no space, even though we had booked. So we were at our own teppanyaki station with our personal chef, Yuki. She was fantastic, did an awesome job, and the food was outstanding!!! The staff in general were very nice and helpful!!!! We’ll definitely go there again!! 👍👍👍
T. S.
The food was outstanding, seafood absolutely fresh and the hot seafood was cooked to perfection. Service was great and friendly, Leo was very accommodating and went over and above to make us comfortable and have a great dining experience. Would highly recommend Tempest Seafood Restaurant
J. R.
The seafood is tasty. We received it quite quick. In the day time the view is nice at night on a clear it is really good to sit out. They have a variety of cocktails and alcoholic beverages.

Celebrated our 31st wedding anniversary and thoroughly enjoyed our lunch today. We ordered the Scarborough Platter for 2 and the beef and reef dish. The platter exceeded expectations! Wonderful atmosphere and enjoyed the cool afternoon breeze on the deck. Thanks for the wonderful service and food today.

The service was great. Staff always checking in on how everything was going. The seafood platter was huge and so fresh and delicious. The only thing I could think of was we took our young children with us and although their meal was perfect for them, they were looking for the pencils/crayons and coloring in sheet, which they didn’t have any.
K. S.
We went for dinner at Tempest Seafood restaurant. The atmosphere was just beautiful. The staff were very friendly and the salmon was the BEST I've ever had!! Salmon is my favourite and I've had many dishes all over SE Qld, but none have come close to being this perfectly cooked and fresh. Can't wait to return.
S. O.
Beautiful food, lovely service. Highly recommend.
J. M.
Visited for the first time this weekend and was not disappointed. The oysters, tuna, garlic prawns & tempest basket were all devine. The ceviche itself was delicious but the pairing with sweet potato was an odd choice. The cocktails were lovely but we hated drinking our Martinis out of plastic.
The atmosphere was relaxed and non-pretentious however the larger deck that we were sat on felt a little run down and disorganised.
Overall we still had a lovely evening and meal; and despite the slightly inflated prices, would absolutely return.
L. M.
Awesome food, entertaining chef Yugi. A really fun night with lots of laughs, and freshly cooked food right infront of you 👍

Great seafood platter loved the location food service cocktails were yummy
m. m.
Awesome food and experience, I highly recommend this. Everyone in our group agreed
B. A. H.
From when we arrived the service wasn’t great, our order for our tempest platter came out incorrect. The food was amazing but the service was under average. We found ourselves waiting a long time for drinks. We hope to have a different experience when we dine at Tempest again.
S. P.
Exquisite seafood. Excellent views. Exemplary service.
My partner and I took my parents here to celebrate their birthdays. My Mum adored the Moreton Bay bugs with miso and pilaf. It was so wonderful to see her so happy and excited.
M. F.
Food was spot on and service very attentive and friendly. Can't wait to do it again

Possibly the best meal I have ever had. The bug tails were incredible so were the starters of scallops & tempura prawns.
The staff were very friendly and attentive.
We can’t wait to come back
M. W.
The seafood is exceptional and this is supported by the friendly, and excellent staff.
They went out of their way to seat us in a quiet area at our request (medical requirements) and even though we were a bit away from the rest of the diners we never felt neglected.
Thank you for a fantastic lunch.
M. K.
I highly recommend Tempest Seafood restaurant. Wonderful atmosphere,professional friendly staff and the perfect experience. We were celebrating our friends 40th birthday and the night went off without a hitch. Thanks to all the wonderful staff and our chef Yugi!
S. S.
Excellent seafood! Fish and Moreton bay bug were delicious and steak was cooked perfectly.

Each, very nice surprise, went with several friends and thought they were only a Teppanyaki,
But fear not, the additional waterside restaurant is indeed a pleasant surprise. …

Best Birthday Dinner Ever. Food cooked to perfection. Chef skillfully an so entertaining had us laughing the moment he introduced himself. All staff were friendly an polite an service was great . So if you want a dining experience with a difference this place is the BEST .I highly recommend it .
D. H.
What an amazing young team, lovely people, great service . . . the food was next level, all local and fresh with a view of the trawlers it came off. Simply the best seafood dining experience we have ever had. Thanks to the entire Tempest team, we'll be back again and again.

Excellent food service .clean & comfortable restaurant thanks
A. P.
I had never tried Teppanyaki before (I am a fussy steak and chips type person), but my wife convinced me to give it a go for lunch, so I did. …
J. B.
Oh my Lordy! The venue is beautiful, the staff attentive, courteous and professional in their service. The food, I’m my Lordy! We shared oysters and muscles, just perfectly done. I had Miso Moreton bay bug and man oh man! The serving was super generous and the flavours were superb. My table companions had the lobster Mornay and snapper and their comments were of the same caliber. For desert we had tiramisu, torte and passion fruit mousse. Oh my Lordy! Amazing!
If you want seafood prepared at its finest this place will more than satisfy.
K. G.
The seafood is devine here! Such a beautiful setting on the marina watching the sun set, and we were very impressed with the menu. We had the platter for 2 and were stuffed afterwards - such good value! 🥂 will definitely be coming back regularly now I found a seafood restaurant that serves FRESH and YUMMY seafood 🦞 🦐
P. P.
Really generous portions, delicious food and price is not too bad! Highly recommend the the Garlic Prawns Rice!
L. F.
Service was excellent. The food superb
P. H.
Both meals were the best my partner and I had been served in Brisbane since moving here in 2019. Kudos to the chef, can’t wait to come back! Couldn’t get a photo as we dug in too fast haha
D. B.
Fantastic seafood and the waitress was brilliant. A little wait on the mains but nothing worthy of effecting the experience. Would highly recommend, and definitely would come back in the future.
N. W.
Was a fantastic meal and would highly recommend to anyone.
L. M.
Great food, excellent service. We'll be back
a. j.
Food was awesome . Can't complain about the service as there wasn't any, literally had to yell out across the restaurant to attract attention from a waiter/waitress. Didn't mind the wait for food as it was really good, trying to get drinks to the table whilst waiting for food seemed quite a hassle. Had all the excuses as to why but to me if there is a wait on food keep up the drinks.
K. W.
well what a night!!
thank you to the staff, chefs and venue.
we had so much fun at your teppanyaki. Amazing service, such tasty and yummy food and great laughs.
This is our second time there, and we will be back again :)
J. T.
Beautiful meal and entertaining antics. Thank you for making my mother in laws birthday so special, she was delighted
M. H.
Excellent food, relaxing atmosphere and great view.
R. H.
Had a large group for my wife's birthday party. We had an excellent spot on the verandah which helped to contain the small children. For was very well prepared in the Seafood Restaurant and the Staff couldn't do enough for us.
J. S.
Food was amazing but unfortunately they forget our mains. The manager was very apologetic so due to the great spot didn't seem so long waiting for the hour and half for our mains. Overall we enjoyed our time
J. S.
Food was delicious, Chef was funny and friendly and the staff were delightful. We had a great time and we will be back. Arigato
P. B.
Loved it, chose the reef and beef, Black Angus steak was melt in your mouth tender, seafood was obviously fresh and cooked to perfection, staff were friendly and everything was reasonably priced.

Food was good, entertaining Teppanyaki. Atmosphere not great as the business is renovating.
w. g.
Teppanyaki was great, we had such a laugh. Luke our chef was so funny! The food was so good and large proportions. We had to catch cooked egg in our mouth and bowls full of rice, I would highly recommend to everyone!
G. H.
1,000 chefs kisses to the team at Tempest. Had the best meal I’ve had in a very long time. The venue was very busy but the FOH team handled it with grace and the BOH team did not let the quality of our dishes slip. The beef and reef will live on forever in my heart as a top 10 feed. There’s something poetic about eating Moreton bugs while watching a fisherman unloading bugs from his catch only stones throw from our seats. 10/10 recommend, 5 stars, etc.
s. v.
Chef Yugi was great! My kids adored his showmanship and skills. Food was lovely too! Wonderfully cooked, and the cocktail menu is also top notch. Gotta book for teppanyaki tables, reasonable prices and good selection and kids are only 20 a head for a 6 course meal.
K. B.
Excellent food and service as always. I am confident every time I visit that everything will be wonderful and it is.
K. R. D. S.
The Teppanyaki alone is worth it! The performance by the Chefs are genuinely amazing. I would love to do this again if I ever got the chance. Chef Yugi is awe inspiring with his skills!
C. O.
Lufki the chef was the best. So much fun and entertaining. The food was superb
K. T.
We had a wonderful time at the tepanyaki restaurant! Delicious food and amazing service, the chefs were very entertaining as they cook the food right in front of you. Very interactive and accommodating for kids. We managed to slip in but would highly recommend booking ahead as there is limited seats per session.
l. m.
The food is so good, you won't be disappointed
C. H.
Lunch was great, the oysters very fresh, the staff so very helpful and my wife was surprised how very good the coffee was made. We drove right across town to luncheon there it was well worth the drive.
Well Done Colin
S. R.
Great location and very good food. Cheers!
T. L.
To describe my experience with three words would be, enjoyable, delicious and fresh. I went for a nice lunch, the food was absolutely scrumptious, the scallops and prawns were fresh whilst the roast pork was succulent, accompanied with a crackle that gave a nice crunch to the bite.
The food however took a considerable amount of time to arrive, over 40 minutes which was a bit concerning seeing that the restaurant was not very busy. The staff were fine however a bit stale personality wise, there was one waitress however that was quite down to Earth and nice to talk to. I do recommend this restaurant, how could I not with a breath taking view and food that is well worth the price.
P.
Bloody awesome.... Dinner and a show
Food was fantastic and so were the staff... Thank you chef.... Maybe next time you can learn to aim properly... 😂😂😂😂
M. F.
The menu has very good variety. There is an a la carte menu and a more moderately priced one. Food from both was excellent and the service was good and friendly.
L. E.
A most enjoyable Christmas experience....the staff, of which there were many,were thoughtful,helpful and happy...lovely to see young people being as productive as they were, and making us feel,valued...this won`t be our last visit to The Tempest....food, fresh,inviting and presented in an attractive manner....we were well looked after, for which I say,many thanks.
Trust 2021, brings the custom you deserve.
Happy New Year,

This place was absolutely amazing, such a good laugh, the staff are very accommodating to the tables needs, the Chef's are very comical and made sure everyone was included.
The food was awesome, everything from the seafood the red meats, would definitely eat there again.
M. H.
Great place for food and a show, we did lunch with Luki, don't call him Lucky 😉

Stopped going about 2 years ago. Gave it another try. Wednesday night reasonable crowd. Service was quick and good. New menus . Set meal , pĺatters and a build your own selection. Great idea because you can pick everything you like and want. Entrees , main meals desserts and 6 drinks. $186 plus $20 tip for service. Good value for the selection we chose. Will be going back again
A. L.
Been there a few times. All on a Saturday lunch period. The surrounding is pleasing and peaceful. The food is fresh, cooking is good and portion sufficient. Pricing is reasonable for restaurant of this level. Service differs from time to time depending on the staff level. On the occasions when staffs are sufficient, service is great. On occasions when there is short of staffs, we have to wait longer with less attention.
M. C. W.
Fresh food, great customer service, set meal is worth of value, best teppanyaki at Brisbane. Our chef is Sam Chan, he is a professional cook and host, he will interact with you while he is cooking, it makes your eating experience is interesting and unique. Highly recommend.
S. D.
Fantastic food. The banquet was awesome. We were celebrating my grandmas life and the staff were so awesome. The tepinyaki chef looked after us and it put big smiles on our faces. Great job!
A. C.
Great night spent with friends at this friendly restaurant.

Celebrated our 7th wedding anniversary at the seafood restaurant. We were seated out door deck close to the water and boats and near bar. Beautiful spot. We got the tempest Platter for 2
Omg was huge! Offered to do all oyster kill Patric style !! Lobster with melted creamy cheese goodness! Octopus tentacles, Morton bay bugs, prawns, salmon - so much more on that platter- sired flat head !! Absolutely beautiful day We love our seafood!!
Highest Levle of service ! offering more water, napkins, checking in and filling our drinks! Was just amazing eating experience!
C. F.
Great menu a lot to choose from, the shared seafood platter and seafood chowder were both delicious and just the right portion size for lunch, and good service as well.
C. S.
Amazing. We had the "Fuji" menu which was lamb, steak and chicken. It was amazing right from the beginning with the miso soup and salad to the sorbet at the end. Great atmosphere and the chef was a delight very entertaining and got you involved in the entertainment also. We will go again and would recommend especially for a group of people.
T. M.
Fantastic teppanyaki! Well definitely come back. We had teppan chef Lukfi - he was an absolute delight and very entertaining. Food was great and prices were well priced with friendly staff. Happy to find no pork on the teppanyaki menu too! Wagyu was incredible - well worth the upgrade. Highly recommend.

29/03/2021.... My 60th birthday
The day of another 3 day snap Covid lockdown.
8 people for lunch before heading home for lockdown.
Not one person made a negative comment on any of the seafood we ate that day... Portion size, presentation & cooked to perfection!
Make the effort & drive to Scarborough. You will not be disappointed with the seafood. Tempest is up there for top notch seafood.
Something happens on an occasion to make it a good or bad memory.
The afternoon at Tempest made it a great memory that overshadowed the Covid lockdown. The friends & food made the day.
Come to Tempest & enjoy their seafood.
P. C.
Good quality seafood straight from the trawler. Family dinning with good views.
K. W.
Thanks to Zac and his Team for a fantastic meal and their service was exceptional.
The Lobster was delish and we will definitely be back, with a team of hungry mouths. Top notch restaurant.

Always happy with the amazing food & service at Tempest.

Good food and nice service great location on the water.

There was something wrong in the kitchen and the food took way to long to come to the table, an hour for entrees and then another hour or more for our mains, wasn't even particularly busy. But they did compensate us with a round of free drinks and then free desserts. The wait staff were very good though, no complaints with that and the food when it arrived was great.
A. F.
This is our six or seventh year in row celebrating my sister and dads birthdays. It never disappoints, we love this place! You will too!!!

Our first time dinner @ Tempest Seafood Restaurant...Saturday 17th October 2020...we had a wonderful experience. The staff were so friendly and the fresh seafood was delicious 😋 already planning to dining here for our anniversary next week 😊 would definitely recommend to family and friends ❤️
M. J.
Great experience. We had the steak and lobster, the tempest basket, oysters and octopus. All dishes were fantastic. Will be back
J. R.
This is a must go to place! From the start, the staff are so welcoming and friendly. Nothing was too hard for them. The food was divine. The seafood was amazing and the wagyu steak was cooked perfectly. Definitely a place I will return to and recommend to all family and friends!
j. k.
I find The Tempest restaurant at Scarborough a little bit of an enigma. The first time we attended we had the seafood platter which was fabulous, every bite a flavour sensation, fresh, fresh,fresh, words escape me it was so good, honestly you could not have had a better seafood meal anywhere. The variety of the seafood platter hot and cold with even sushi included and the accompaniment was a sensation. For drinks we simply had a daiquiri each. Once again magnificent, very large and all we needed to compliment the meal. I've always been hesitant to return to a restaurant after having a fantastic meal, part of me wants to be there again the next night, part of me knows you're flirting with fate to try to relive that sensational dining experience again. Unfortunately I was right, our next visit to The Tempest restaurant was a little disappointing. The seafood platter was smaller with less choice, the crab on it we had to send back as it was mushy. Replaced with a better but not great crab, however the daiquiris were up to their usual standard, beautiful. All in all it's a very nice restaurant, good views and the food if not sensational very good. Well worth a try and a lovely drive down to the bay. If you can, I would suggest lunch through the week when the crowds would be less and it's a lot more quiet and personal. The staff are very good and friendly and do a great job. Quite a few ticks.

The grilled prawn starter and calamari were cooked for absolute perfection! Wonderful service also. Wygu steak was served was tasty, however was unfortunately not hot. Beautiful dessert.

We will return again.
P. M.
Been going there for 5 years off and on, can be hit and miss. On Friday it was both, my wife and our friend both had bugs, 1 with miso which was more like a garlic cream sauce, our friend had lemon butter, unfortunately his were dry and over cooked. I had soft shell crab which was lovely but my main was snapper and prawns with a passionfruit veloute? The snapper and prawns were perfect but the passionfruit had no reason to be in that dish. I originally wanted bugs thermidore but was told they couldn't do that as they stopped doing thermidore bugs because of too many complaints about the bugs being over cooked. Chef error. But i could have it with the lobster, please explain? On leaving we mentioned all of this to Zac who was maitre d and he explained they had new chefs due to Covid and they were still trying to get the combination right. He gave our friend a $50 voucher to make up for the bugs. Thank you Zac, Chris our waiter was very helpful as was Tania. All in all we will go back when the new menu starts.

Tempest was top notch from the moment we entered the seafood restaurant. The Staff, their wonderful hospitality, the assortment of redwines from WA, and the quality of FRESH SEAFOOD was IMPECCABLE
.May I strongly suggest you throw caution to the wind and select the seafood banquet, it was decadent, delightful and Delicious!!! And mamma mia the lindt chocolate torte for dessert was devine. We are very fussy when it comes to quality seafood but Tempest delivers...and more.
B. G.
Really friendly staff, great venue, decent drinks, great Sunday session. Burger was a bit hit and miss though.

Fresh seafood cooked to perfection in a great location and served by fantastic staff.
Would have to be one of the very best seafood restaurants we have been to anywhere in Australia.

Had seafood platter for two x2 and some
other seafood dishes, all delicious and fresh.
Service was great lovely staff and nice atmosphere.
Will be back. Thank you for a pleasant day.
G. C.
Great place to eat! All the meat is cooked to how you like it! The fried rice is absolutely top notch and almost my favourite part of the meal. The rice catching game is fun also! My tips, Don't make any erratic movements, order the Fuji and have fun!
W. F.
I’ve had teppanyaki previously, but I didn’t realise what proper teppanyaki should be like until I dined here.
The quality of the food here is top notch. I ordered the tempest set menu and it was a delight from start to finish. The wagyu steak was tender and juicy, highly recommend a menu with it or taking the upgrade.
The meal was complimented beautifully by Chef Yugi’s skill and vibrant personality. His mastery of the grill is unparalleled and his performance of the meal is a sight to behold.
During Covid this restaurants adherence to social distancing is commendable, so I recommend anyone visiting if they can.
B. M.
After many many visits over the last 15 years... pleased to say I never stop being pleased. Had a new chef Yuki tonight, and while her knife and cooking tools may not have been as flamboyant as some others... it was totally made up for in delicious food and friendly and welcoming service.
A genuinely pleasure to eat here again and again.
M. B.
The service was friendly and professional.
The Seafood was excellent as was the surroundings. Great value for money. If you like Seafood it's a must.

Lovely family environment. Our chef was outstanding and the kids really enjoyed themselves. Food was delicious and fairly priced.
E. G.
The freshest most beautifully cooked seafood you will ever eat. Never disappointed with the quality of our meals. Makes for a very enjoyable lunch or dinner.
R. H.
Fantastic service, excellent food, ambiance perfect. It would have been a five star but it is a bit pricey. I did expect a generous serving for the price I paid, but I understand this is a tourist spot and it is a first class dining. Definitely we will be back if there is a special occasion to celebrate. This is perfect place to celebrate a milestone event.
L. G.
Have to say the food we had the platter was to die for and from the minute we were greeted at the front by the gentleman we knew why we wanted to come back again.....
And through the whole of our dining for lunch the staff were exceptional as was the food....
We came to have lunch after having a tough 6 months working at Mater Hospital through this Covid 19 we felt relaxed for those few hours....
H. B.
Such wonderful service and great entertainment. The teppanyaki chef was entertaining and very good. Food was amazing. We will definately come back again. Enjoyed ourselves thoroughly.
A. S.
We celebrate every milestone here. Food, service and cocktails are all great. Atmosphere is authentic and comfortable. Just don't wear stiletto heels lol.
S. H.
Back again for the third time, as always Lee never fails to disappoint. Cooking each dish as devine as his singing skills!! Delicious, entertaining and a must do when you are looking for dinner in Scarborough.
B. R.
Amazing food. Wonderful atmosphere. A must do...
n. s.
We had a table of 28 to celebrate a milestone birthday for my sister in the restaurant on the deck. Everything was perfect and it all ran smoothly. It is in a lovely position over the water, and the food was perfect. The staff were very refreshingly skilled, helpful and courteous. I highly recomend Tempest for a visit whether a meal for just 2 or more.
Our daughter celebrated her 18th birthday in the Tepanyaki Grill not so long ago and that went without a hitch as well. Great atmosphere, food and service.
Congratulations Tempest and keep up the great food, service and atmosphere. Looking forward to our next visit.

R. Y. G.
WOW! this is a fantastic seafood restaurant. The food, atmosphere, service and staff were brilliant. We were told on our arrival that the restaurant was fully booked and advised us to order our food early and that there might be a wait. I have to say that the fact they they were honest enough to let us know made all the difference in the world. We were happy to wait for our mains (Beef and Bugs and Bugs Mornay which was so fantastic!). We were given updates on the arrival of our meals and were also given a complementary plate of the most delicious prawns. We were so surprised by this and were very grateful. I would thoroughly recommend this restaurant to anyone.
A. M.
Yes will be coming back wonderful food and service
G. K.
We had a lunch for my daughters 21st today
Teppanyaki restaurant. Lukey Lu was OUTSTANDING!
I will be honest, I wrote this restaurant off a year ago but my Goodness I am so glad we gave it another go.
Chef Lukey... you are so entertaining and such an Amazing chef. We haven't laughed so much for a long time.
Well done Morgans.. you have redeemed yourself! 😉
R. J.
We had the Scarborough Platter. Generous quantity of high quality and fresh seafood. Fresh mussels make such a difference. The Moreton Bay bugs were among the best we have ever had. Great oysters, fresh prawns. A memorable meal for sure. Highly recommended
M. C.
I have been here three times in the last 2 years. Twice for the seafood in the outdoor dining areas. And once for the Teppanyaki. Cost is on the higher side but food is absolute quality. Very relaxing view of the moored boats. Will no doubt come here again.
M. W.
Yugi was absolutely amazing. The food, the service... It was all absolutely impeccable.. such talent.
It is where I will go for every special occasion. It isn't just dinner, it is entertainment plus.
The steak melts in your mouth, the lamb.. so succulent and don't even get me started on the seafoood.
Thanks Yugi for making my evening so special.
M. A.
Beautiful atmosphere, lovely service. Food was amazing. Only downfall is once we ordered we waited 2.5 hours for our mains, happy chatting etc but I did have my 2 young boys who were getting a little crazy haha
K. S.
Tempest was recommended by friends and didn't disappoint. I imagined it would have had to be good as they're right on the wharf waiting for the fishing boats to come in. It just doesn't get fresher than that! It really was a delicious and very reasonably priced seafood restaurant. Great classic menu as well as some really exotic, exciting dishes. We chose the seafood platter to taste as much as possible and would highly recommend ordering that for a couple or group. My friends and I are all massive seafood fans and we loved it. I think it's well worth the travel from Brisbane to eat at Tempest. We will absolutely be going back and I can't wait to try their Teppanyaki section
A. G.
Great meals and super friendly staff. Definitely try this restaurant again and again as the menu is extensive.
l. s.
It was a very nice experience with the Chef 👍
J. C.
Thank you Leo and staff. My Mother's 80th Birthday was amazing. Despite the big tables we were treated like royalty. Each meal was a masterpiece and we all had food envy over the kiddies food! Well done and thank you for sharing such an important milestone with us.
A. A.
Amazing as always.
Always have a good time when being entertained by their incredibly talented chefs.
Well done!
J. S.
I can't speak for the seafood restaurant at this place but if youre looking for great teppanyaki food AND a good night out then this Teppanyaki restaurant is amazing! They have great options for people who don't like seafood and want to stick with meat and chicken. They also have options to create your own menu. You would think that you will be hungry afterwards as the portions aren't large, but because you have so many dishes (soup, salad, terriyaki chicken, steak, lamb, fried rice, sorbet - and seafood if you choose to add), you are left feeling pretty content. Besides great food, the chef's and their involvement with your dinner experience is fantastic. Chef's engagein little challenges, fun games and really put on a show for you.
I would recommend having a group of people to experience this restaurant with as going with just another person doesn't give it the high experience as it would with other people. The point of the night is to have fun, and this is purely done by laughing at and with family and friends.
Extra points to this restaurant for having online menus that include pricing.

Seafood buffet on the last Thursday of each month was fantastic. Service was okay but food and selection was incredibly. Going back to try the Teppanyaki night as it looked like fun and also the food. Keep up the good work

My wife and I celebrated our 30th Anniversary here. Being a Monday night it was naturally quiet but had an enjoyable meal without the crowds. Seafood as we expected, was beautiful. Could of had a little more in the banquet though. Pleasant evening all the same.

Nice presentation and great food.
Just question the logic of seating tables close together in an almost empty restaurant. Got stuck next to a drunk couple that detracted from an otherwise pleasurable dining experience. Please wait staff feel free to leave some gaps between diners.

Very nice food, fish was perfectly cooked and chips were delicious. However, for the amount we were charged it felt a little small and i left the restaurant feeling hungry.
