Reviews
"I have frequented this venue on multiple occasions without a hiccup, as previously reviewed. Tonight though I found a hair in my meal- the staff did get the chef to prepare a fresh meal, but it came out and my partner had already finished her meal. This ruined the romantic date night we had planned, the second meal only had the steak and truffle mashed potato- having to ask the staff if I could have gravy like in the menu. The second steak was delightful, very tasty. The romantic date night had just been completely removed by my partner trying to stretch out her meal until mine arrived and we could eat together, the hair and then not having any items discounted or anything - the wine nor the food or offered any sort of compensation for their mistake. Usually a lovely meal- lack of service tonight. No wine tasting offered when purchasing an entire bottle like usual either."
"Nice experience and good service, avoiding peak hours could be the key"
"Dyers is a Ballarat institution having been around since 1972! Went there with friends for dinner and it was very enjoyable. Service was great. Professional, friendly and unobtrusive. Food is of a high quality well cooked and enjoyable. Steaks are great, cooked perfectly to how you like it. Steaks come with preset vegetables which whilst ok could do with an update! Good selection of sauces available. Bottom line is that you get a very good meal with excellent service. If you’re after steak in Ballarat it should be on your list."
"Had a thoroughly enjoyable meal. I had been really looking forward to dining here and was not disappointed. The ingredients were fresh, the dishes were cooked superbly and presented wonderfully. I had the pork belly entree and porterhouse for main and couldn't fault it. I was particularly impressed by the béarnaise sauce. If you are planning on having dessert make sure you get your order in early to avoid disappointment. It turns out the Pana Cotta was limited on the evening I went. I was fortunate enough to get the last one in the restaurant they had that night and it was divine. The honeycomb that was served with it melted in my mouth. The service was attentive and friendly. We dined upstairs and there was a large table that got a touch rowdy (which was fine) yet the acoustic profile of the room didn't lend well to people who may wish to have a quieter dining experience if they are celebrating an anniversary so if that is you it may be worthwhile checking when booking and request a table downstairs. Overall, a lovely meal with a homely ambience and well worth experiencing."
