Silica Restaurant

"We dined here recently and both the food and service were fantastic. Our waitress was extremely helpful and pleasant, helping to make our meal so enjoyable"

"Lovely food but very loud restaurant! It was my partner’s birthday and on arrival, we both get questioned whose birthday is it, it was a big giveaway! Anyhow, the food here is fantastic, I had the best steak of my lifetime! The Burramundi fish is excellent, the rest of the food was great too! Downside, we sat upstairs and there were lots of big group and although we have the window seats for two and we can bearly hear each other. We quickly had our dinner and seek the peace and quiet somewhere else straight after!"

"I honestly didn’t have high expectations going in to this restaurant and it was the only one we could find that would fit us in (Easter weekend). Wow I am glad that they did, the food was superb, the flavours and dishes were paired perfectly. 6 courses and I was definitely full by the end. My favourite was the barramundi, which is my least favourite fish but it was amazing also the quality of the food was so fresh. The service was great as well, unfortunately I wasn’t drinking this particular weekend but I heard people comment on the drinks they were paired with the food. Definitely a must go too if your in the Kiama or south coast region."

"Wow - an excellent meal. Had the tasting menu, and every dish was excellent, with the barramundi the stand out. The staff were attentive and the view and ambiance were great. It was a Thursday night and the place was pretty full, a good sign. Would recommend."

"First time here for an anniversary dinner. We were under the mistaken assumption that “restaurant and bar” meant we could arrive a little early and have a cocktail at the bar while we waited for our table. Apparently you can only order from the bar while seated for dinner. Very misleading. However our table was ready on time and the staff were very efficient in taking our order and serving our meals quickly. We each chose a 2 course meal for $65 and they were beautifully presented and full of flavour. I love the decore but not so much the layout. We were seated by the window with an ocean view but there were group tables on the side of us making it impossible to enjoy a romantic dinner when the noise level was so high. I would’ve preferred to have seen the restaurant with tables of 2 or 4 in one half or even in the lower level and the group tables on the other. Overall a delectable experience for the taste buds but if I’m paying $65 for 2 courses i expect more food on those big empty plates. Portion sizes are too small for my liking."
