Escagrill Seafood & Oyster Bar

Great service. Great food! Highly recommended. A gluten free option would have made me give it 5 stars.

This would have to be the best restaurant close to the CBD. Food is amazing and can be compared to any 'Hatted' restaurant. Service was incredible. Value for money.

Service was beyond horrible. To begin, my partner rang and advised them that I was a vegetarian and if this could be catered for. My partner was advised that they had a separate menu for vegetarians and to request it when we were seated. Therefore, once we got seated – we requested the menu only to be advised that it does not exist. The waiter simply advised that we can make 'pasta, vegetables or a salad'. I ordered the Napoli pasta (with fettuccini style pasta). The dish came out perfect and within 10 minutes.. only for the initial waiter to walk up and take the dish away without even asking if it was the correct order (WHEN IT WAS). He apologized and said another one would be out shortly, 10 minutes later another dish came out with prawns and other seafood. I simply said to the waiter, 'I don't eat seafood as I am a vegetarian, and am unsure why you took the first dish away as it was correct' only to be made to feel highly embarrassed by the waiters rude remarks. Further from this, after waiting another 10 minutes for another dish to come out - we requested the bill. The restaurant had the decency to charge me $60 for the two pasta dishes, even though I did not request one! The manager came out, only to be highly racist about his staff, claiming that because of his ethnicity he was unable to hear and therefore only made us pay for one pasta dish. Finally, the manager said 'I hope you'll come back' – I would never, ever go back into the restaurant and am going to be writing a formal letter of complaint.

Consistently great, food is exceptional, the specials really steal the show. Last time I had a moreton bay bug ravioli, with friend prawn and nut brown butter and sage sauce- EXCEPTIONAL! The seafood taster plate is value for money, with the freshest mixture of cold and hot seafood; I believ the customer is the winner. Well done Escagrill staff for your personalised and excellent service; always wanting to please. We'll be back again and again.

Lets be honest expectations are high for the reviews but fails to live up. Our table wasn't ready when we arrived on time. The service staff arrogant and appallingly slow. While the food was ok the two hour long wait for it was not. It's a busy place and apparently always is so you think they be use to handling a capacity restaurant, clearly not. Do yourself a favor eat elsewhere there are better experiences to be had in the area.
