Yamanto Tavern

"We went in here for a lunch and a drink while we were in the area. I found that the food was just slightly above average, the atmosphere was pretty ordinary to be perfectly honest, we had to just about have a fist fight with the red head bar maid to get a menu and we had to wait an age for the food to actually come out. It wasn’t even busy. First drinks were well and truely finished before the meals came out. If you don’t care about service, atmosphere and aren’t in a hurry then you might enjoy the food and the place. It needs to be said that the food was nice… but it was well and truely overpriced. Won’t hurry back because of the above"

"Do not make me order on an app. Provide menus on the table and provide good old fashioned service. When I asked for a menu I was told to use the app, I refused and said I don’t order that way the lady rolled her eyes and would only give one menu for a table of 7 people. The food was reasonable, except all the chips were cold. No one came to clear drink glasses during the time we were there, or to check if everything was ok. Service was mediocre at best. Atmosphere was poor. I will not go back."

"We occasionally get lunch orders from here but very disappointed with our takeaway order today. Told 12:05pm pickup but had to wait around until 12:22pm. Ordered rare rib fillet steak but got the rib eye on the bone that was very well done. Ordered a chicken burger with sweet potato chips and received normal chips, despite it correctly being written on the box. The burger had egg on it which I didn't order. Didn't receive tubs of aioli sauce that I asked for. It wasn't even busy so there was no excuse for these mistakes."

"Desserts were $10 and delicious, we had the poached pear (needed a bit more poaching but tasty all the same) and the creme brulee (yum). The weekly special was a fish dish with pea puree, it was nice but seemed to be lacking something just not quite sure what. The boys were happy with their steaks, my in laws happy with their fisherman's basket style meal, my nephew happy with his chicken king avocado dish, and the kids loved their burger kids meal and nuggets kid meal (usually they don't eat as much of it!) With their chocolate frog in a jelly pond dessert they were stoked. The fruit tingle cocktail was delicious. I will say just one thing non food related - the automatic doors right nearby had us all wishing we were dressed for sitting outside as, with a massive 13th party booked outside, they were opening and shutting constantly and it was COLD. I don't know if there are heaters for the outside booking but wow the breeze coming in constantly at the doors was awfully chilly and not ideal for our baby and I. Kids didn't get to go to the playground as it was too cold but it looks amazing. Staff were lovely also and plenty of parking. We were placed a couple of steps up however so with the pram had to carry it up, I'm sure wheelchair access would remain on the lower seating. Thanks Yamanto!"
