Where to eat: the 37 best restaurants in Port Lincoln

Serve pictured was $27. Tasty fish, lovely staff... although for the price I certainly would expect the portion of fish to not be rivalled by the size of a regular lemon wedge.

Super fresh seafood direct from the sea and very reasonable pricing too. Enjoyed ourselves totally.

The battered fish was one of the best I’ve ever had. We had whiting and flathead. We also got the muscle bucket - it was amazing, there was a great garlic butter sauce. Chips are banging. Oysters were lovely with a nicely accompanied by ginger and seaweed. Couldn’t have asked for better. 5 stars.

My wife daughter and I had a craving for fish, so decided to head to the fresh fish place to check it out. They got a bit of our order wrong but by the time we had put the food in our mouth we couldn’t care less. The fish was one of the best fish I’d tasted and the oysters were a masterpiece! Staff were really friendly and we will definitely come again. We highly recommend this place and hope you enjoy your meal!

Lovely fish and chips and lovely service. Took the time to explain menu options and how to cook the oysters kilpatrick. Quick, efficient and everything as ordered with a friendly smile. Would recommend and return. Meals included wedge of lemon and tartar sauce included. Its the little things that make a difference.

What a place, if you want fresh fish cooked fish and chips this is the place to go. There is fresh and frozen to buy and lots of other things that take ages looking through. The girls are pleasant and happy to help. You can see in to the kitchen, which I really like. There are 2 areas to eat, in and out. We brought the Sashimi tasting plate, even though it was nice, I thought expensive for what it was, but we had to try it and see what all the fuss was about.

We toured here as one of the excursion options on a cruise that stopped at Port Lincoln. Our guide (Jenna) was new to leading the tour but had worked at this place for a number of years. She was obviously quite nervous but didn't need to be. Her knowledge of the operation was very good. Overall, an interesting tour. More time sampling the fresh seafood and less time listening to explanations might be a better balance. The small fish and chips lunch was good (although quite a small serve and not much time to enjoy it). Here are some photos of the tour...

Lovely food and service. The birthday decorations were a little distracting for me but it was fantastic for my mum, who had a birthday the following day. We had a little photo shoot 😂 staff were very accomodating and wanted to help in whatever way

We are travelling around Australia and we came across this gem of a restaurant in Port lincoln. As soon as we walked in the door we were greeted with a huge smile and once confirmed our booking we had a choice of reserved tables which was great. The service was really good answered all our questions about the menu on offer. The food we ordered was fantastic the flavours and the smell of the food was fantastic the only thing we found disappointing was there was not enough vegetables with the main dish. As it was father's day they had an awesome stage set-up to celebrate father's day with a motorbike 🏍 in there as well. There was also some live music 🎶 and the lady singing had the most wonderful voice. All in all it was a wonderful night.

Went to lunch with my beautiful daughter and granddaughter. Thank you girls for taking me to Fumo 28 and shouting me lunch. The food was amazing. The service was exceptional and we were all made to feel very welcome. We love this restaurant it’s a family favourite. Put my faith back in the oyster they were delicious.

They say money can’t buy happiness, but, it can buy food, and the food at Fumo 28 is the taste of happiness. Amazing flavour combinations, salads filled with various tasty elements, meat and seafood cooked and dressed in a manner of deliciousness to perfection. Very friendly, happy and kind staff who are sincere and serving at the ready. Thanks Fumo! Will be back for more soon.

Went to Fumo last night in Port Lincoln. Which was recommended to us by friends. But it was disappointing, yes the service was acceptable but the atmosphere was poor! I ordered 1/2 dozen oysters, Kilpatrick The sauce was very overpowering which spoiled the meal. The whiting was dry and considering a 42-dollar price tag was a very small serving. I had the Flathead head which was tasty with a small salad therefore the price was not worth it . I had one drink. Gin and Tonic! Overall a disappointing restaurant meal for $119.00

Top Spot. The food was excellent. Oysters were great and very well priced. Full King George Whiting mains were especially good. Nice range of drinks. Staff were great.

Visiting from Qld and what a find!!!! Fresh, delicious meals, a great list of local wines that we could try with our lunch, excellent service, if you're here you have to visit this place

Fantastic cafe, had breaky here twice for our short stay from Qld, excellent service from the friendly staff, food was delicious, nice view to enjoy as well

Really good coffee, really good food. Friendly staff. Good vegetarian options.

Amazing coffee ☕️ great service really nice atmosphere! Love the artwork and plant on the table was a nice touch.

Excellent food, friendly staff. Was disappointed by the expensive add ons - 1 x tablespoonful of spinach and same for mushrooms. Superb scrambled eggs. Hubs had the Japanese pancake and thought it was fantastic. Would recommend but wanted to set expectations re the sides.

Trip to Port Lincoln a few weeks ago with our parents - breakfast at @rogueandrascal: yummy food and friendly service! . Truffle me this - Truffled mushrooms, garlic labnah, confit cherry tomatoes, poached egg, feta, kale & crispy enoki on rye sourdough: always love a good mushrooms based dish! The truffle flavour wasn't super strong but nicely done. . Bao buns - Crispy Katsu Chicken with house made carrot and cucumber pickle, mixed herbs, peanuts, gochujang mayo & fresh chilli: delicious crispy chicken! Can't go wrong with this one if you like bao buns 😊😊. . Turkish eggs - Two poached eggs on a bed of whipped garlic yogurt, confit tomatoes, browned sriracha butter served with crispy kale and crunchy sourdough for dipping: it was really nice dipping the sourdough through the yoghurt and poached eggs 😍😍.

This little cafe was the highlight of my trip to Port Lincoln - I ended up going here everyday for breakfast and throughout the day to get a coffee. It would have to be the best cafe in Lincoln, maybe the whole peninsula. Friendly service, great views of the bay and the food is sensational - those eggs Benedict - too good!

Excellent breafast and coffee. This place is my favourite place to go for breakfast everytime whenever I visit Port Licoln. There food is always fresh & delicious and never let me down. You can perhaps enjoy morning swimming in the Port Lincoln Foreshore Swimming Pool before breakfast and it will make their food even more delicious :)

Amazing food & delicious cocktails. Jay and the team smashed out a wonderful mix of dishes for our group of 4. Trusting the joy of being fed by the team we ordered the $55 a person shared meal. - Deliciousness followed. Plate after plate of amazing flavors, visual delight and perfectly cooked food. Add on the perfectly balanced, refreshing and moreish cocktails and Santi’s is a real find. Thanks to the locals who put us in the know.

Was recommended to try Santi’s from a friend and this turned out to be our favourite meal during our stay in Port Lincoln. Jay and his team were great. Us adults had the feed me menu and we left so full! Kids also ordered a variety of dishes including the black Angus Nasi Goreng, Adobo Lamb and the Korean Pork Ribs and they loved it. Flavours were on point! Also agreed (like many others) that the Lychee Martini was delicious as were the other cocktails! Thank you Jay!

We ended up here because Del Giorno’s was full — big mistake. Everything was sold out by 6pm. We waited over an hour for just two stir-fries and a steak. The steak was cold, the noodles were basic, and service was poor despite high prices. Definitely not recommended.

Santi’s delivers an incredible Port Lincoln dining experience with fresh, generous portions and top-notch quality, making it a fantastic value for your money. The meat and seafood(!) dishes are not only bursting with flavor but also aesthetically pleasing as well. The customer service is exceptional—warm and welcoming, as if you’re part of their family. I’m already looking forward to my next visit to savor more of their delicious offerings. Many thanks Santi’s team, for an unforgettable meal! 😋😋😋

Delicious gem. Food was full of local flavours and team was warm and welcoming. Just wonderful. Chefs kiss 👩‍🍳

Great food & great service, I always love coming to Santi’s. The Feed Me menu is an awesome multi course meal, and it’s never the same which makes eating out exciting. Thankyou Jay & team!

Travelled nearly 600kms to Port Lincoln and was ecstatic to find an Asian resto! Tried their palabok with a twist, made by a Filipino chef, and he did not disappoint! best palabok i have ever had. The rest of the family was happy with their meals as well. sorry can't upload my palobok video😅

We had a magical lunch! Jayden served us and was a delight, well informed and so welcoming. We loved our seating right next to the window looking at the vineyard. Food was outstanding! Loved that the chef also added in edible succulents, which we thought was very unique. Steak was gorgeous, seafood sharing plate brilliant, pork belly was amazing, plus the sides of broccoli and the kipfler potatoes plus the sauce with it was to die for! Thank you for an amazing , memorable lunch 😃

OMG This restaurant was everything and more. We chose the “Trust the Chef” tasting menu and let me say we were not disappointed. All the courses exceeded our culinary expectations in particular the squid in prawns and scotch fillet. Wowee those prawns were incredible and the best steak I have ever eaten. The wine pairing was generous and it was a great opportunity to taste local wines. Our Italian waiter was absolutely beautiful and the chef - well we want to take you home. Can’t wait to return. We had a fantastic lunch exchange

This was my second visit to Teakle Wines, and somehow it keeps getting better. From the genuine hospitality of the staff to the beautifully curated menus, every detail feels carefully considered. Even the portion sizes are spot-on. The Korean-themed night “Janchi” was an absolute highlight, with the fresh kingfish stealing the show, an unforgettable dish that truly stood out. The Line & Label has a way of combining creativity with consistency, making each visit feel special. It’s a place I’ll always recommend to friends and family, certain it will leave them wondering how Teakle Wines manages to deliver perfection time after time.

We had the set menu and it was a great meal and great service. Kids enjoyed their meals also! Nice little winery with the restaurant near the first car park. You can drive through and go left up towards the winery for wine tastings. Plenty of grass area for the kids to run around and kick the footy as well as plenty of nice greenery for scenic photos for the gram 😉

Fabulous food delicious complex and surprising. The perfect long lunch in a relaxed and comfortable space overlooking rolling Hills. The young amiable staff where delightful & conversational well versed in the menu; so helpful. An absolute pleasure.

Chose the Valentine’s Day dinner for 95$pp approx . The food was heavenly delicious . Specially the tofu & potatoes. Panna cotta for dessert was Cherry on top . The staff were very friendly welcoming respectful & caring for customers. The atmosphere was gorgeous with winery vibes . Would definitely recommend this place is 10/10 .

Peter Teakle Winery and Restaurant is a hidden gem that my family and I recently discovered and have instantly fallen in love with. From the moment we stepped foot in this picturesque place, we were greeted with warmth and hospitality that made us feel right at home. The breathtaking view overlooking Port Lincoln is truly a sight to behold, making our dining experience even more memorable. The restaurant itself is a beautiful space, exuding elegance and charm in every corner. The food at Peter Teakle is nothing short of extraordinary. Each dish is crafted with love and attention to detail, resulting in flavors that dance on your palate. We opted for the "Trust the Chef" experience, paired with delightful wines that complemented every bite perfectly. While the prices may be on the higher side, the exquisite dining experience is worth every penny. The service at Peter Teakle is impeccable, with wait staff who are not only friendly and helpful but also passionate about what they do. Their genuine smiles and attentive nature added to the overall enjoyable dining experience. I must also mention that the ambiance and setting of this restaurant are second to none. The atmosphere is cozy yet sophisticated, creating the perfect backdrop for a memorable meal with loved ones. In conclusion, Peter Teakle Winery and Restaurant is a culinary oasis that should be on everyone's must-visit list. Whether you're a local or just passing through, this place offers a gastronomic experience that is unmatched. I simply cannot wait to return to indulge in more delicious dishes, exquisite wines, and warm hospitality. Trust me, a visit to Peter Teakle is an experience you won't soon forget. Alex

While on a recent stay in Port Lincoln we really wanted to try some local Seafood. We did a bit of a Google Search and Del Giorno’s Cafe appeared to have some great reviews. We ordered the Seafood platter for 2 at $120 and we were certainly not disappointed. For a good Seafood Platter these days we thought the price was reasonable. The place seemed packed on a Sunday night with many locals so that’s a great sign.

Our first meal in Port Lincoln after a long drive from Adelaide. Didnt disappoint. Owner was very friendly and provide great service. Food came out quick and was tasty and nice and fresh!

Always packed — make sure to book online a day ahead! We missed out the first night and had to return the next day. The sashimi was super fresh, no fishy taste at all. Seafood pasta was rich and satisfying. Totally worth the hype — it did not disappoint!

Delicious food. We had the marinara pasta and chicken breast with mushroom sauce and they were phenomenal. Friendly staff and good atmosphere.

Buy the meaning to come here for a while but for breakfast you need to be here before 11. At least for the Eggs Benedict, not sure about other breakfast menu. Eggs benedict is probably my all-time favourite meal served with a good mug of coffee. Many places for mugga coffee is just like a teacup it's good to get a proper decent sized coffee. The eggs benedict was good. I was surprised that you had a choice between bacon, spinach or salmon. I'm used to eggs benedict being served with spinach either way but that's ok I'm sure there is a reason for it. Perhaps as an option for vegetarian. There's a nice area to sit outside a plenty of room inside as well the restaurant presents very well. I will served by a young girl I think possibly a backpacker and she actually made my meal because a nice meal if it's not served with a pleasant attitude then it kind of breaks the meal so please a special thank you to the young girl working today from overseas

Being a vegetarian it’s so hard to find nice place to eat find a good option but we had the best vegetarian pasta and pizza at this place. Staff was also very friendly and service was so quick and nice. Highly recommend this place for anyone who’s visiting or living around port lincoln.

We stopped here for lunch and wanted to sit outside, however there were people with their pets at the tables. On what planet is this OK? NOT EVERY ONE WANTS TO EAT THEIR LUNCH WITH ANIMALS! This results in a 2 star review from me. The food was pretty good and reasonably priced, although the prawns on the seafood platter were overcooked and dried out a little, other wise it was great!

Lovely little French cafe. Owner was super lovely. Food was tasty and the pancakes looked like a work of art! Coffee was great also! We came around 11am and a lot of the pastries were sold out (see the photos, they must be popular to sell out!) and we managed to get the last serving of pancakes. So suggest going earlier if you want to try all the options. At 11.30 you can order some savoury options which we didnt get to try unfortunately. Would definitely recommend!

The perfection of the croissants and cafe took me straight back to a renowned Boulangerie in Dijon. To mix it up a bit i had a raspberry croissant which you would expect in a Pâtisserie. Do take the time to indulge as it is truly worth it. C'est absolument délicieux !

A charming French patisserie with absolutely delightful and flavorful creations! The croissants are also truly fabulous: light and full of taste. The service is warm and personal, making every visit feel special. I treated myself here for three days in a row and each time was pure joy. Many heartfelt thanks and see you again soon!

We recently had breakfast while staying in Port Lincoln. It was amazing! I had the best scrambled eggs I had ever eaten and hubby had the breakfast board and he was very satisfied, although he also ate half of mine as they were very generous servings. We also purchased 4 of their award winning croissants and they were also delicious. If you are visiting Port Lincoln do yourself a favour and stop in.

Always amazing! Every visit feels special. The food is not only delicious but also beautifully presented, and the coffee is rich and perfectly made. What really makes this café stand out is the people, Pierre and Brendon went above and beyond to make us feel welcome and cared for. Their kindness, genuine smiles, and attention to detail made our time here unforgettable. Thank you for making every visit such a pleasure!

If you're a brunch enthusiast or a croissant lover, this café is absolutely worth the hype. From the moment you walk in, you’re greeted by the smell of fresh pastries and the hum of a bustling, happy crowd — a clear sign of a local favorite. The croissants here are next level — perfectly flaky, buttery, and rich with unique flavors. Whether you’re into almond, chocolate, or their cruffin specials, there’s a wide range of beautifully presented options that are as delicious as they look. The savoury croissant dish I had was topped with cheese, eggs, and pancetta, surrounded by greens and crispy kale — a hearty, balanced meal that didn't disappoint. Coffee lovers will also be pleased. The latte art is gorgeous and the flavor is deep, smooth, and crafted with care. It pairs so well with the pastries, you’ll probably want seconds. Inside, the space is bright and clean with a modern, inviting design. There’s a lovely bar-style counter seating area where you can watch the bakers at work — a rare and satisfying touch that adds a behind-the-scenes feel to your visit. It's a real treat watching the pastries come to life in the open baking station. Pro tip: This place gets busy — really busy. It’s definitely best to book in advance or arrive early if you don’t want to wait. Worth every minute though. Whether you're brunching with friends or picking up a box of pastries to go, this spot is a gem. Highly recommended!

The new spring menu is out and it is absolutely delicious!!! 5 stars just doesn’t seem enough to give as a review!! My personal favourite is the Nduja & Fennel Sausage Ragu pasta! A great amount of heat with out of this world flavor. My husband raved about the Smoked Fish Croquette, and that bearnaise sauce deserves a standing ovation! The Pistachio cube is heaven on earth, that pairs beautifully with a hot coffee. It’s filled with a velvety whipped white chocolate and pistachio ganache. Both of the owners Grace and Marvin go out of their way to make you feel welcome in their beautiful cafe. We are so truly lucky to have them in Port Lincoln!! Whether you are passing through town on holiday or are one of the locals…we need to support this beautiful family and their little shop filled with love and delicious food!!

What a decent quality boutique beer! Pair it with a burger that represents something you would expect from Coles good buys and it's resulted in nothing short of disappointment. Coles lemonade, Coles apple juice, Coles burger patties that are 80% flour. Even the 'brioche' buns are cold and stale. Oh the chips... Deep fried until there is nothing left inside them. To say we will never be back will be too soon.

I come here every Friday lunch for the $12.48 burger and beer deal. The burgers are delicious. My favourite is the chicken burger but they have a double beef and cheese which is lovely too. $5 pints from 5pm is the best deal in town. Thoroughly recommend.

Great beer garden with a relaxed vibe outside. Could be better inside though, tables were all too big. Not many options for 2 people. Loved the live music—really added to the atmosphere. Excellent range of beers on tap and the pizza was surprisingly good for the price, with generous portions. Perfect spot for a casual evening out.

I have had a few chicken burgers in my time, but NEVER one as good as here; Absolutley Amazing..Great beers, great atmosphere, great service, everything was perfect. Well and truly worth driving 3000km to come and see

Drinks and dinner Tuesday night in October. Great venue designed for casual drinks, smallish parties and outdoor enjoyment. Good selection of in house beer on tap with happy hour specials. Good menu with daily specials, tuesday was 2 for 1 pizza and certain meals. Meat pizza was fabulous and $5 happy hour beers were enjoyed. Would highly recommend for a visit and meal.

We had a really yummy prawns & chorizo pizza with an amazing crust here tonight. Really good 👍 We enjoyed our $5 pints during the happy hour. The ginger beer was really nice. The Bar staff were lovely, friendly & helpful.

Great place for Tuesday night cheap beers and two for one pizzas, totally recommend & GREAT for kids

I will never recommend to anyone. If you are really hungry never come to this place. It will take donkey age's to get your food. Ordered one Neptune special large size cost $22 and Barramundi in Lemon pepper sauce cost $20. We ordered at 1pm and received our food at 2pm. When they give the food, told that they don't have prawns for pasta and only One Barramundi fish piece and returned $5 which is cost $20 meal. Such a cheep restaurant. Never recommend to anyone I uploaded the photos. Wasted our money and valuable time

Enjoyed snapper and chips as well as a calamari, prawns and scallops and chips. The portions were generous. The chips were ok. Prices were reflective of the quality. The server had to be asked to provide napkins and utensils.

An average takeaway place that apparently used to be pretty good. The seafood was pretty fresh (it had better be in Port Lincoln) although the batter and crumbing was tasteless and took away from the freshness of the seafood. They were also very stingy with the tartare sauce, one tiny squeeze pack for each piece of fish without any extras for the other seafood like calamari and prawns.

Pay $33 only box of chip with two very very small fingers of fish. Not worth for $10. Never go there not honest Business.

Staff were so lovely an accomodating. We got there an hour before close so it was quieter and food was ready pretty quickly Nice light crispy batter that didnt go soggy and calamari, prawns and 3 types of fish were enjoyed by the family for a very reasonable price Even my super fussy parent seemed happy.

My family came here 2 times for food because this is the cheapest place in Port Lincoln. In my opinion fish and chip packs are very nice and of good size. The pasta is not as good though, I think it needs extra salt and flavor (to the owner maybe you should consider giving customers small bags of salt and pepper in case they need it). However I still think this place still deserves 4 🌟 as the food came really quickly and the staff were very friendly and helpful!

Have honestly never had better fish and chips, it was amazing. Great value for money and big portions. Was so good we went back for dinner the next night and somehow that exceeded our expectations as well. Seriously great food.

We stopped in for lunch here and it is a beautiful location. Doesn't look like much from the outside but when you go in, it opens up at the back to an amazing spot, with a great view. We got the "Hooked" platter and it is the greatest value for money and absolutely delicious. Definitely recommend!

IGLOO - What a great experience. Had a lovely meal in the Igloo. Service and the meal were exceptional. All the comforts you need to have an intimate gathering, from your own heater, music speaker and button to press when you require service. Highly recommend this.

A grand old hotel is the setting for a kings feast. Lovely ladies at the bar sorted me out properly. Korean chicken entree, with a hint of heat nicely done. Main, a 500g Pork Tomahawk.....a thumper with a subtle butter and mushroom puree....exploding cherry tomatoes(so damned juicy) and greens. Treat yourself!!!

A lovely setting overlooking the bay. Service was good, nice and warm inside and the King George Whiting was cooked beautifully. It is on the expensive side but worth it. I highly recommend a meal there.

We recently had an celebration of life at the Boston, for 50 people. The staff were excellent in making sure everyone was catered for. The meals were excellent, as everyone made the same comment. I would recommend The Hotel Boston and will be visiting there again very soon

I booked an Igloo experience online for a romantic evening with my partner, and booked for the sharing menu. When we got there and were seated we were advised that the sharing menu was not available as that was last years menu and was not an option for this year, even though when booking it was an option. We showed the wait staff how we booked and that it was still an option and they agreed. A manager was contacted by staff. Then 15min later they came out again asking to be shown again how we booked and got that option, and if we minded that they videoed it. When we went through the online booking process with them again the previous option was no longer available. Even the wait staff found it unusual as they had already previously been shown by me the booking process I went through and agreed that the share menu option was available. We were disappionted but proceeded with thier al acarte menu, which is just the run of the mill resturant menu which was very ordinary and therefore i would not recommend the experince. Compared with last year they have really dropped the ball with making this an experience to remember. Its just an ordinary menu rather than any thing special or unique to the igloo.

We just had the best night here. The seafood was amazing and the friendly staff made the night for us. We were even treated to our very own heated igloo out on the lawn area which made our night so special. Would definitely recommend

Delicious food, amazing cocktails, and a fantastic location with views of the ocean.

Perfect spot for delicious burgers & sides with affordable cocktails, loved it.

Absolutely delicious food! Big portions, great value for money. Delicious cocktails. Staff are lovely and owners very clearly appreciate their staff and are passionate about their business. Highly recommend!

The cocktail jugs are absolutely delish!! My friends and I had the Druken Sailor, Lychee-Licious and Nice Melons - all had amazing flavour and would drink them again for sure! We also had the bacon loaded fries which were drool worth! The Cajun prawn po-boy was also a hit, amazing combination with the right amount of spice!! Will definitely be going back again, drinks and food were to die for. The vibes and staff were relaxing and accommodating! Thanks Shaun, Steph and co!!

Great Burgers, and cocktails. Lovely setting above the street overlooking the jetty and ocean pool. Really friendly staff.

The fodd was sensational vibriant colourful food that's healthy and extremely tasty. Plus servi2is 11/10 with a smile they love their jobs. By looks on faces.

What a view! Great vibe, food & cocktails. Must visit if you are in Port Lincoln

Incredible experience at Jump Ship Brewery! The lime and chilli squid was absolutely delicious perfectly cooked with just the right amount of zing. The jerk chicken tacos were bursting with flavour and had a nice kick to them. Beer, I went for the “brown flight” blew me away rich, smooth, and so satisfying 🥲 Great atmosphere, awesome staff, and top-notch food and drinks. Can’t wait to come back!

Lovely space, friendly staff and absolutely delicious. Fantastic with dietary requirements - gluten free everything!!! Thoroughly enjoyed the Tapas: seared snapper and cauliflower plus chicken tacos. The hazy IPA is top notch 👌

Wonderful venue, very pretty. Pool table, darts board with a large selection of drinks. Delectable hot honey wings and with nice deep-fried pickles and chips. A wanna pale left me refreshed. Give this place a go if you're in town.

Had a session beer & it was delightful. Great vibes inside & pool table to play. Squid tacos were unreal! Would recommend for a pint & a meal

Friendly staff, great food and delicious beer! Really nice atmosphere. Laid back and relaxing. We will be back!

Stopped by after our quick drive to coffin bay. For a cheeky beer. 10/10 great atmosphere visually appealing and great beer. Highly recommend the Moonwind Hazy IPA 😋

Absolutely lovely meal and the jalapeños and pickles as a side was great well worth the visit thank you from Sue and Grahame from WA

we drove to port Lincoln for our sons birthday party, we booked a room and found the accommodation plus the counter service check in people were outstanding. we also booked a table for 8 in the restaurant area this is where everything went sour, once we ordered the meals took for ever then when they came it took for the first ordered meal roughly 45minutes then another every 15minutes, the last 2 people waiting waited an additional 40 minutes and even then forgot on one meal, the food was the worst we have had in 40yrs the steaks were raw even though we ordered our steaks between medium to well done, the steaks were rubber and uneatable, my wife's whiting meal was like chalk the fish was so dry it disintegrated, the chicken on others was so dry was uneatable, the atmosphere from the live band was fantastic but we could never eat at the hotel again or recommend to anyone, a very disappointed 8 diners

Nice, cozy and affordable hotel with gym amenities (the pool was shut). There's also pokies room and a restaurant below serving delicious local oysters. Room and bathroom were clean, bed was comfortable, sheets and towels were clean. It was a comfortable stay. Nice coastal view as well

Thought i would take the wife out on a kid free date night. Honestly one of the worst meals i have had in Lincoln. Way over cooked mango prawn entree that just tasted like chewy prawns. Then the prawn and chorizo risotto was next level. 1 over cooked prawn and a few muscles and cockles. The risotto was barely edible, no chorizo and more of a weird rice paste thing. But there's more, the waiter asked if we were done and wifey asked to order a dessert. The "table service" said that it should be fine if we ask. Whats the point of table service? He should of taken the order or asked. Had a good laugh at the place tho and made the night memorable but yeah go to the pier, boston or marina hotel. Beers where ok tho.

We had a beautiful view from room 507 - highly recommend! Couldn't fault the service from staff and also the dinner at Sarin. We would definitely book PLH if we were in the area again!

We had dinner here on a weekday night. The food was ok, but not outstanding. Salt and pepper squid serving was quite small, more like an entree. Chicken schnitzels were average. Staff were friendly and efficient.

Don't hesitate to stay here. It had everything we needed. Great location and a walk to everything. Staff are friendly and helpful.

Wonderful rooms and location Great that there is 24hr reception. The vegetarian breakfast options were limited. Being a guest with a Breakfast package wasn't expecting to ordercat the coffee bar with morning regulars. The coffee came out after the food and was just warm. Then two more coffees came just after which we didn't take - but I actually think they were ours ?? Ordering overall was not professional ( I think new staff and understand - but was dissapointing )

Had a very nice Pasta and prawns special on a Sunday. Nice portion size. Great flavor. At least 12+ nice sized prawns in the dish. Was expecting 4-6 prawns so it was a pleasant surprise to see so many. The salt & pepper Squid side was a nice portion size and nice thick well seasoned Squid strips. Not the dissapointing "rings".. The Bluefin Tuna, thick steaks, coated in sesame seeds. Nice salad and seasoned noodles. Tuna was not the freshest, had a slight " fishy" taste. And a bit overcooked. But it was decent. A bit pricey but you do have a nice waterfront view. I would definitely return. Nice meal.

We had breakfast this morning at this beautiful place and every plate was a masterpiece: fresh, perfectly balanced, and full of flavour. The attention to detail, presentation, and warm service made the morning so best! This place isn’t just about food,t’s about care, skill, and heart. Hands down, one of the best breakfasts I’ve ever had. Whether you’re a local or passing through, don’t miss the chance to dine here. You’ll leave full, happy, and already planning your next visit.

Stayed here for 3 nights. On the Saturday evening we noticed our fridge wasn’t working. I went to the bar to report it to the staff but wasn’t expecting them to be able to do much on a Saturday night. However they send someone over to look at it and were more than happy to swap it for another one. We were very impressed with this service. Also rooms were immaculately clean and comfortable and the meals at the bistro were great. 5 stars

We were here 4years ago and the was amazing . This time food was average. Customer service left allot to be desired.!!! I'm cert 3 hospitality if every my Hotel was run like this staff would not have a job. Staff seemed as though they couldn't be bothered staff didn't engage with customers

Lucky enough to stumble across this place during a quick visit to Lincoln. Food and . Service was fantastic and stunning views of the boats coming and going . Special mention to Brandon, lovely to see someone enjoying their job, your employees are very lucky to have you.

Very nice food here and fast service. Good pub food. At. Sphere is good sitting on the deck over looking the Marina.

Nice atmosphere, meals reasonable price although coffees overpriced. Good service.

It was great experience. Very nice food we had, the only thing is we can’t share food every single person have to order there meal individually, also they have half meal options .. not bad

I spent alot of money at this place 03/09/2025 we put $50 in a pokie machine and suddenly the machine threw a code. We waited for service and it never arrived. What arrived was us getting kicked out with our money never returned. And when we asked again we were greeted with 2 staff members being absolutely horrible. Coinciding I was the sober driver.....I was accused of being drunk.....yet my $50 was never returned. If you want to get ripped off....go here. I even asked for the register to get counted to show I wasn't lying.....again I was shown the door. Still want my money...... and I sure as hell will let it be known that they don't know gaming and rules. Is it that jars to see the last. One put on a gaming machine....or to look at your own cameras?

Perfect rump steak and beef parmy! Spot on, great size and taste. Salad bar with bread rolls added bonus. Walked out completely stuffed and contented Pic dont do the meals justice

Came here for lunch on Monday, Friendly staff & superb meal Vege bar + soup was delicious and a good range of vegetables/bakes. Lamb bao buns were huge & a meal in themselves if not very hungry. Chicken Pappardelle was absolutely divine, the best pasta ive had from a pub in a long time! Quite busy too with patrons on a very average weathered day. Cant fault the place!

Two of us dined in for dinner last Sunday night, ate our meals and went up to the counter to pay. Got charged $109 for 2 meals and an entree. The following night I recieve a message request on my personal Facebook from the manager accusing me and my partner of leaving without paying. She sent a copy of the receipt for the unpaid table where she sat which was only supposed to be $89. So obviously we were charged for the wrong table. She sent her number and told me to contact her so I did. She was not sincere at all nor did I get a sorry for the misunderstanding. I also asked her how she managed to track me down on Facebook as I am not local, and she advised she tracked my partner down on playerhq (a sports website) which I found odd. All she offered was to transfer the difference back into my account. Did not hear from her until one day later asking for my bank details which I sent though immediately, then I did not get a response for another day. I then followed up asking if it has been transferred as we had not received. Finally got the money, and again wasn’t given an apology for the confusion or accusation. Was handled very unprofessionally and they should’ve just taken the $89 loss and got on with it. No need to track down a non local on their personal Facebook asking them to pay without getting their facts right first. Maybe it also would’ve been worth asking the staff if they remember us paying as the pub was not busy at all or checking the security footage first.

Had a meal at the Hotel , Excellent, good quantity, well presented, excellent taste, veg bar available, service was great, atmosphere is really good, warm , cosy pub type , not noisy, would recommend

Possibly the best pub Caesar Salad ever. Great location, friendly staff & great food

I visited this restaurant in Port Lincoln after it popped up while I was searching for a Thai restaurant. The description mentioned Thai and Chinese cuisine, so we expected authentic Thai food. However, the experience was very disappointing. The menu had a separate section for Thai dishes, so we ordered the Spicy Chicken Thai Fried Rice and Chicken Stir Fry — but both dishes were clearly Chinese-style, not Thai. The flavours, ingredients, and preparation had nothing to do with Thai cuisine. It feels like a misleading advertisement to attract people looking for Thai food. The fried rice tasted awful — I could barely eat a few bites and left most of it behind. When we went to pay, the lady at the counter didn’t even ask if the food was okay. The fried rice also had visible prawn pieces even though we ordered chicken, which was unexpected and disappointing. The restaurant might be fine for Chinese food, but it’s definitely not a Thai place. Overall, a waste of money and a very deceiving description. I wouldn’t recommend it if you’re looking for authentic Thai flavours.

Excellent food…. Good portion sizes… Staff is friendly and hospitable… quick service…. Plenty of seating available…. Nice atmosphere in the restaurant… Great location too….

Very disappointed. Ordered the Sweet and Sour Chicken which was supposed to be crispy battered chicken with sweet and sour sauce. What I received was fried battered chicken in a takeaway container which was bathed in the sweet and sour sauce! Which of course meant that all the chicken was soggy and nasty. This is a basic tenet of any fried dish, you don't serve it in sauce, you serve the sauce on the side. Major fail, ruined the meal. Flavour seemed alright but the texture was unforgiveable. If they can't get the most basic concepts right then what's to say. Avoid.

Traditional Chinese, with some Thai and Malaysian on the menu also. Id rate it as great authentic and fresh Chinese. The flavors and servings are good. But I wouldn’t say there is any real WOW factor. Sometimes the wait is a little long but worth it. The staff are friendly and give good service.

Friendly service in a great location. Nice spring rolls. Loved the decor and atmosphere. Reasonably priced. I ordered garlic prawns which were creamy and tasty. My husband ordered fried rice which he said was very tasty. We shared a pot of Chinese tea. I recommend this place if you are in Port Lincoln & looking for quality food.

Best South Australian Chinese restaurant I've found outside of Adelaide. Went for the set menu A and they asked if there were any dishes we'd like to swap - really great service. The food was also excellent and we'd happily eat there again

Tasty meals. Satay Spencer Gulf Prawns were great. Nice Lemon Chicken. Mongolian Beef and Salt and pepper Squid were good. Special Fried Rice was a little bland compared to what I’m used to but still nice. Would recommend.

Got uber eats order took nearly 2 hrs to arrive and all 3 pizzas turn up burnt and unable to.eat my favourite bit the crust, disappointed. Actual pizza was nice but the crust is part of the meal and badly burnt, also asked for no onions which was put in the pizza.

Recommend by a friend and it didn’t disappoint. Ordered a Margarita. Very generous toppings and well seasoned and balanced. The crust is slightly thicker than thin ‘n crispy but very fluffy and not at all doughy. The slightly burnt spots are a perfect addition to the taste. Service was quick but we went just after lunch time. Overall a great place for decent quality pizzas.

Pizza Trieste is an absolutely fantastic place to dine, or to order some takeaway. Delicious food on a menu which offers a wide variety, speedy turnaround time for takeaway orders, and exceptionally friendly staff. You won't be disappointed with your meal from Trieste - 5 stars (I'd give more if I could)!

Delicious pasta! Recommend by a work colleague. Been there a couple of times. Enjoyed each meal :) Especially liked the seafood pasta! So fresh.

Amazing pizza (and we are from europe and very picky about real pizzas😅)!! 😍 The service guy was also very friendly. Would definitly come again, when we would life here! 🙏

We had dinner here two nights in a row during our stay in Port Lincoln. Absolutely beautiful dishes. My partner is European, he loves Italian food. We've tried many restaurants across big cities in Australia, and this place is one of the best places for it.

We had a nice meal at this pizzeria - the best one in Lincoln. The girl behind the counter was super friendly and made recommendations on the most popular pizza that we should try. As a truffle base, we were happy that the level of truffle was just right and not overpowering. Light and dreamy tiramisu to take home for dessert

Nice place, great veg/salad bar and ice cream machine! Lovely staff, quick kitchen service as well. Not enough Gluten-Free options though.

Went only for the food. Food was fast, service was great. The hot food at salad bar was nice, especially the veggie bake. The actual salads didn't look that great so we stayed clear. The chicken snitty was nice but nothing special. The chicken burger on thr other hand has single handedly earnt them the 4 stars. That was 10/10. Calamari was fresh clearly great quality and pizza was good, just a tad oily. Staff were friendly and gave it a nicer atmosphere.

Food was awesome. We ordered a lamb yiros pizza…. yum! Beef cheeks and beetroot salad.. amazing presentation and tasty. Well done chef! The coffee was the best we’ve tried. Thanks Elliot Well done to the staff and highly recommend.. great prices, top service and excellent food.

Bar and meal service was fantastic - Elliott was extremely polite, friendly and courteous when delivering our meals and clearing our table. The food was tasty and a good price. Loved the hot vegies bar - great idea rather than getting a bit of salad on the side (I had lunch fish and chips - both where hit and well cooked.) I'd highly recommend the place to others.

Had some tasty beers at the Tasman, they'd be tastier if my partner paid for a few. It was a very cold wet night and i loved it cause i warmed up my index fingers on "The Munsters"pinball machine. Madge, behind the bar, really knew how to eftpos, pour beer and up ya' if you weren't behaving.

We stayed two nights at the Grand Tasman Hotel in Port Lincoln while doing the Calypso Shark Tour and had a really pleasant experience. The rooms were tidy, roomy, and clean, with partial water views and lovely all-day sun — a comfortable spot to relax between activities. The rooms offer great value for money, and I’d definitely recommend staying here for an overnight trip or a weekend. As a bonus, we received a complimentary drink and a voucher for 10% off a meal in the dining room, which was a nice touch. Thank you, Grand Tasman Hotel, for a convenient and enjoyable stay!

Rooms a bit basic, but what you would expect in an old style hotel. We could have used an extra chair- only one provided. The meal and salad and vegetable bar were exceptional. All the staff we met were friendly and helpful A special thank you to Elliott, who went beyond the call of duty.

Flame 40 is a restaurant located in Port Lincoln, South Australia, specifically at 3/40-42 Hallett Place. The restaurant serves Indian cuisine, with dishes such as butter chicken, cheese naans, and lamb being some of the best dishes available. The restaurant is open from Monday to Tuesday, with opening hours from 5:00 pm to 9:00 pm on Mondays and 11:30 am to 2:30 pm and 5:00 pm to 9:00 pm on Tuesdays. The restaurant has a cozy and welcoming atmosphere, with comfortable seating arrangements and a well-lit interior. The staff is friendly and attentive, providing excellent service to customers. We ordered baigan Bharata, naan, rice, dal makhnai, samosa and chicken curry. Food was okay except samosa. Samosa were too oily and it wasn't that good. Further, the reason I am giving three stars is because of waiting period. After ordering we had to wait 45 minutes. So I am giving them three stars.

I tried this restaurant just before leaving Port Lincoln. We were the only ones at the restaurant when we arrived, so it was nice and quiet. We ordered a pepper prawn fry to start, and it was good in both taste and presentation. For the mains, we ordered chicken eggplant masala with garlic cheese naan and a serving of saffron rice. They were good in taste, but the portion sizes were average. The service was great, and the prices were reasonable. Overall, it is a decent Indian restaurant in town.

Great spot for some good Indian food. Place was empty when walked in. Which was fine for us. Started off with the Spinach Pakora. Nice portion size. Fresh, 2 sauces. Very nice start. Beef Vinegrat was great. Not too spicy. Lots of tender beef. Very good.. Chicken Eggplant marsala..again awesome. Big chunks of chicken and lots of it. Sauce was very good. Both dishes were just the right serving size. Ordered 2 servings of rice which was needed as the dishes do not come with rice. Garlic cheese Naan bread came out hot and fresh. No complaints at all. If your looking for some great Indian food in Port Lincoln this is the place..!

The lady at the front told that they only allow takeaway, when it was 35 mins until restaurant closing time. When they gave the biryani they did'nt even give cutlery, upon asking they gave 2 wooden knifes for eating that too only after asking. (Moreover, we would appreciate more if you could take into account the cultural sensitivities of India and keep out some ingredients/items out of your menu. Although this is not a factor for the negative review however, but just a friendly suggestion)

My favourite Indian dish is Chicken Biryani. I may not know much about the spices and stuffs on it but I am a fan or Biryani so I exactly have tasted the best biryani. Anyway, thank you for serving me the food even though the staff was unfriendly. No problem, as long as I got my Chicken Biryani. The food came in to the table looked appetising. I was so excited but it was way too salty. That’s it and no more comments.

Predominantly vegetarian as I don’t like to eat my patients, so this may not reflect your order. But what I got on two different occasions was very very good.

Excellent service & delicious food. We had daal makhani & aaloo baigan, which both had outstanding flavor. The woman attending our table (and cooking) was delightful and was very patient while answering our questions. Highly recommend!

My family and I are EP locals and we are gobsmacked at how shockingly terrible Sarin’s has become. Both the food and the service are a total disgrace. This is the first bad Google review I have ever left and I’m doing it because I don’t want any visitors to Port Lincoln to waste their time and money at Sarin’s. It’s a nice-looking place with a prominent spot on the front street but don’t be fooled by appearance - their food and service *do not match* this in the slightest. It’s currently an embarrassment to the Eyre Peninsula. The service is appalling and they absolutely butcher our beautiful fresh seafood (see picture of the rubbery tuna medallions on days old soggy red cabbage salad drenched in who knows what - $40 they charged a pop for that). The comedy of errors we experienced at this restaurant tonight is worthy of a bonus episode of Fawlty Towers. It started with arguing with us when we first arrived about our reservation, then progressed to a 1-hour and 15-min wait for our food with two hungry kids and a baby in tow. Then the abomination in this picture turned up (we had ordered two of these - and the rest of the food was mediocre at best). The cherry on top was when the waiter asked “so how was everything” and we said “some of it was okay and some of it was bloody terrible” and his response was, “Perfect!” - and proceeded to make no eye contact, collected the plates, and left 🤣 (On my previous experience eating here, my friend ordered a sirloin steak and I ordered a scotch fillet and when the waiter brought them out he said “I forgot which is which” 🤣 So blasé and so bad.) On this occasion, we obviously didn’t eat the minuscule servings of old tuna on old salad - as it was actually inedible - and instead had to go into battle to get a refund. We went home and made ourselves spaghetti bolognese. If you’re visiting Port Lincoln, Santi’s has phenomenal food, Fumo has incredible food, Line and Label is fabulous - and I’m sure the pubs are much better than Sarin’s too. Don’t waste one of your meals here, it’s just not worth it.

The vibe and interior design are always great, and I've visited a couple of times before, with something new each time 😅😃. However, this time I was a bit disappointed upon arrival. The waitress insisted on showing me the menu before letting me in, which felt a bit unusual and unprofessional. She also mentioned I could stay at the bar to order burgers, even though I hadn't mentioned what type of food I was looking for.

So had dinner here. Service was bit lacking and i was almost about to leave table. Lucky one staff had check over to see if we have been looked after and i politely said no been almost half hour as we are already decided what we want. And food came out very quick unexpectedly. I had lamb back strap was good was not filling at all and have to broccoli not steam but crunchy. potato chips more like potato roast Baked ans still yum it is $37. My partner said only good is their king George whiting fish but it is $46 though. Food is pricey for almost of food you get. I'm not too sure on this one. If i do go back.

We have dined here multiple times during our stay. The food is absolutely beautiful, the restaurant has glass wall so you get a nice view of outside trees and the sea. They have outdoor tables, my husband and I sat there for a drinks while waiting for our table inside, not a bad idea at all to have a few drinks while enjoying the view outdoor. The service is okay, can be better. We were welcomed on our first visit. On our second visit we were seated and serve better when we first visited by the same staff. When you have in house guests dining, always treat them like in house (their house) customer. Repeat customer always welcome them as a repeat (already know) customer. Loyal and repeat customer will always save the business. All in all the dining experience beautiful and will definitely come back, the prices reasonable.

Trip to Port Lincoln a few weeks ago with our parents - dinner at Sarin's Restaurant at @portlincolnhotel: great selection of seafood dishes! . Oysters: must have oysters every main meal whilst in Port Lincoln 😍🤤 - Rockefeller style: lemon herb butter, panko crumbs - Japanese style: cabbage and ginger tsukemono . Hiramasa kingfish Sashimi - coconut and maple cream, toasted curry leaves: very fresh and lovely flavours 😍. . Stuffed miso mushroom - portobello mushroom, tomato sugo, beansprout and snow pea salad: absolutely deliciously done mushroom! . Seafood platter for 2 - King George whiting (grilled), Coffin Bay oysters (kilpatrick), steamed blue swimmer crab, salt and pepper squid, Spencer Gulf King prawns, blue fin tuna tataki, crumbed ocean jacket, Kinkawooka mussels, half shell scallops: what a good selection of fresh local seafood! Everything was so amazing 😍😍. . Lamb backstrap - herb crust, kipfler potatoes, broccoli florets, red wine jus: the only non-seafood dish of the night, and it was really yummy! The lamb was tender and juicy 🤤🤤. . Honey roasted carrots: great side dish!

Came here for dinner and everything was delicious and well presented. The menu has quite a wide range with good options for different dietary requirements. The waitstaff are also all very friendly and lovely. I had the salt and pepper squid and it was so tender - you could tell it was fresh! The oysters and dessert (rhubarb and peach stack) were also delicious.

The wait staff were fantastic. The food however was very bad. I ordered the $80 seafood platter and received old tuna, off crab, rotten lettuce, tastless mussles and only one small baby octopus. I feel that in Port Lincoln, seafood should shine no matter where you dine. My drink was removed from the bill and I was charged full price for the platter.

Staffs were attentive and accommodating. The foods, I was afraid with Chinese food where they tend to be spicy and has strong taste but this place has served us such a delicious meals. My friend and I loved it. The only issue is the restaurant is running under staff where you guys have a perfect location and people flooded the restaurant while you serve takeaway as well. I found it’s too much to handle for the staff. Foods came a bit delay too. Other than that, we are happy and will come back again!

Wait Staff were friendly and helpful. Till staff a bit less so. Food was rather bland and generic, sweet and sour had crunchy veg but soggy rubbery chicken pieces. Special fried rice was bland and plain. I wouldn't go again

I am really fussy when it comes to Asian meals as they can disapoint, but I have to say it was the best banquet I have ever had. There were five of us and we all said how great the food, staff and atmosphere was in this lovely restaurant. Thank you 😊

When you think of Port Lincoln you think of seafood and the large fishing industry, but the food sometimes can be overlooked, especially when it involves other cultures and traditions. Chinese food is a household favourite and Ming Inn is absolutely amazing. The food is authentic tasting and it’s delicious. For the price, yes it can be expensive but for the amount you get, the quality and overall taste is worth every part of it. The best part is that you’re offered to take whatever is unfinished back home just incase you haven’t had enough yet. There are other competitors across Port Lincoln not only in Chinese or Asian cuisine, but Italian has been largely popular on the EP. If I was to recommend someone a multicultural restaurant, Ming Inn is my first choice. Absolutely amazing!

We waited a very long time for our meals which didn’t taste good either. There wasn’t much flavour. The spring rolls tasted exactly like the homebrand ones. We asked for water multiple times. It seemed that those people who came in after us and were ordering alcoholic beverages were being served promptly. Wouldn’t eat here again. Not a good atmosphere.

The “beef and vegetable” was too saucy, too much tapioca flour in the preparation. I was expecting a stir fry style. I asked for change for something else and the woman refuse telling me I have to pay. Not good service at all.

Yummy food and staff was friendly enough. Service was quick. Specialy in Port Lit Easter long weekend most restaurants were closed and they were quick with the service but still maintained good Chinese food.

The schnitzel was nice. The staff were attentive and professional and this place is clean and presented well. The chicken wings were terrible and I ate one and left the rest untouched. The mussels were quite nice and beautifully plated. The salad was missing the pumpkin, avacado and I added squid to the salad as an available option and I received 6 thin slices of calamari on top of my salad for an additional 8 dollars. Top tip, I was asked if I want a bottle of coke or coke on tap. Go with the bottle. The tap drink I ordered wasn't really coke and it tastes cheap and not very nice.

Very mediocre at Sharkeys. After a very long wait on a quite empty monday evening, the "thai salad"was simply a joke( nothing thai about it and was based on soggy fried noodles- who dreamed this tasteless disaster up? Even the dressing couldn't rescue that. Crispy chicken entree was overcooked /refried, tough and bland with horrible mango sauce, arancini over cooked/ refried, tough and bland, cauliflower popcorns ok but a bit salty accompanying sauces all very unbalanced and curious in flavour- no complimenting flavours at all. Childs chicken and veg was beans asparagus and fennel dripping in oil with bland shards of chicken. The childs burger and cauliflower was only thing that got a good mention. Please hire a chef who has some experience, especially in balancing asian flavours and creating tasty dishes properly! It's not that hard honestly!!!! Very disappointed as we were one of 4 tables. It is a great hotel , stuniing location but poorly run kitchen unfortunately in 2025 and this is a very big missed opportunity for management- very sad to see.

Good fish and chips and beer. They double charged me though, not sure the fish and chips was worth $60

Ordered $50 lunch. Only 4 people in pub. Food arrived quickly for two people ahead of us but our food arrived after 45 mins after. Told manager who said a large group had just arrived so it was busy. The large group was in separate area of hotel. We watched them arrive well after we had ordered. After two enquires our food finally arrived COLD!!! Clearly it had sat on the chase and was forgotten about. Bar staff tried to organise for manager to respond but couldn’t get him on the phone. We checked and the so called “large group” was only a small group of less than 20 people. Basically management are dishonest and wouldn’t take responsibility for our order being forgotten about. This was on a quiet day. Food and beverage at Lincoln Hotel are a bunch of hillbillies that couldn’t organise a booze-up in a brewery.

Sharkey's, located inside the port Lincoln hotel, is a reasonable place to eat, particularly if you are staying there. Good menu range and friendly service, and the seafood platter for one was quite tasty though a little pricey for what it was. Well worth while checking out when you are in town.

As a repeat hotel guest, I expected some level of service. However, again I was left wanting. After an 8 hour drive, we checked in. All good. Went to Sharkys bar for happy hour and snacks. Mason was helpful behind the bar and Mikayla’s service was good. However, waiting for more than 10 minutes and then missing happy hour close, was a bit annoying but we move on. But then to wait for more than 45 minutes for a bowl of fries was excessive. After meeting Brad, the manager, I felt like I was talking to a yr 9 school boy who didn’t care about anything but himself. I didn’t get an eye roll but may as well have, with the care factor he gave. So I felt that any concern might have been ok, as mistakes happen, but blatant disrespect was a struggle, even after several drinks. Sorry for taking up your time, Brad. Long story short, we will look for other accommodation and venues to spend our money. Brad might reflect on his dismissal, but then again, when you are full of self importance, is there any room for reflection?

Recently ate here, all 3 of us got the steak special cooked medium although was lovely and pink inside the steak was dry and chewy not what would be expected of a medium steak there was no juice whatsoever.. not sure if they had tried to reverse sear it or was simply defrosted meat.. Staff where extremely friendly and accommodating. But would not recommend to eat there!

This would be okay for a takeaway lunch pack at $10 We order duck which to my surprise was batted and after even trying were both confused on what the dish was along side other's we had ordered,dim sims had no taste I actually got sick later that night. As mentioned probably safe to sick with the lemon chicken and basic mains. Overall $86 walked out a little disappointed

It was okay starter, the fried rice was good but the szhechuan chicken was really a fault. It wasn’t even that dish. It tasted something else. I don’t know. Never had szhechuan chicken like that before. The ambience of this place was okay too. Not many people dined in.

The restaurant was taken over by a lovely Malaysian family. The Malaysian dishes are highly recommended. They have changed the old menu by using fresh ingredients made to order. No more batter and frozen food. If you’re up for it, ask the friendly staff to recommend some specials. :) Adelaide friends travel here all the time.

Was craving for some fried noodles and went there for dinner. The food came within 10 minutes and the fried beef noodles were just delicious! Highly recommend!

The food is very to my taste.

We are visiting from Perth and we taken to this little gem by friends the other night. Staff were amazing and the quality of food fantastic. Serves were large and the dishes were very tasty. I’m gluten free and they bent over backwards to accommodate my dietary requirements. Wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this place to others.

Very nice couple served us. They serve a choice of traditional Malaysian food. And European style Chinese. Very reasonably priced. Our choices were excellent. Having been to Malaysia we had a good long chat and laughs with our waiter & his wife. Well worth a visit.

our server iesha was very rude often we could hear her going in the back and yelling at other people saying things like shes going to hit them or throw food products at them. our order although not very big took way longer to make than it shouldve. as a previous kfc employee myself i know first hand it doesnt take 45 minutes for two zinger boxes (two other people in the store with similar orders) she was also very loud and obnoxious out front and i saw her walk into the office whilst making our food and go on her phone. personally if I were head management at this store i would discharge her within a week of her working here

KFC is the, i mean THE! Greatest place on this earth. This place has made me so happy, always giving me food for me and everything else. I recommend the Zinger box with a water, as it hits HARD. Thank you KFC can’t wait to see you at breakfast.

Such slow service! I can understand the struggle of being busy through drive through and front counter, although the wait was long atleast your getting through it lol

Loved the service! Great bunch of kids working there. Asked for my meal to be made fresh and they made sure it was. Even apologised for the wait even though it’s what I asked for!

Fine for take a little bit rest while underway It’s perfectly fine to take a short rest while underway.

Service was crap, a line up of cars for the drive through, we ordered from the kiosk and it took at least 30 minutes to get food very poor

Ordered a 3 piece box meal upsized chicken beautifully cooked ,very busy 6 pm Friday night ,staff were lovely ,all customers seemed happy to wait only annoying thing was they forgot my Pepsi and by the time I realised I was on my way home 2 1/2 hour drive so I couldn't go back !

A hidden gem right by the coast! One of the closest vineyards to the ocean in Australia. Loved sipping local wines while enjoying ocean views from the hillside. Surprisingly, the freshest and sweetest oysters of our trip were from here! Highly recommend for wine lovers and casual oyster snacks.

Had a fantastic time at Boston Bay Wines, the food was exceptional and the wines accompanying the meal were well matched! Was delighted to meet the owner and have a great chat about their multiple vineyards and delicious Gin! Can highly recommend if you are in the region!

Would like to thank the amazing Staff at the winery for making our wedding go without a hitch. From our first meeting to the wedding day everything was easy. Not only did they deliver excellent customer service but the food / Wine and decor was amazing. Thank you for making our day special From the Cottons

Excellent lunch - food was fantastic. Love the name “Great White” for the Sav Blanc - unlike the name sake found in nearby waters - this one however is not to be avoided.

Perfect setting for a magnificent lunch of tuna, prawns and seafood pizza. Excellent wines served with tasting notes and friendly conversation . Highly recommend !

Can’t give this place enough stars!!! Needs a 10!! From the chef to the owner to the waiter - what an amazing view with amazing food just on par!! Thanks for making our trip to port Lincoln. One of the best experiences we have had around the country please go you’ll be impressed!

Two very diffrent visits I organised a Sunday lunch at The Boston Bay Winery for 24 members & guests of the Cummins Beef Steak & Burgandy Club.Took my ideas to Jan & her team who made them into a perfect expresion of my vision. Nine courses with eight wines, the wines came from Boston Bay, Adelaide Hills, Brarossa Valley, Wrattonbully and two from France. Just to mention two of the courses, ''Wagyu steak bites with balsamic caramelised red onion and a refreshing citrus based labneh.' and 'Roast rack of local lamb with leeks, sauteed and fried, pan -fried wild mushrooms in butter, red harissa and local honey roasted dutch carrots topped with leek-based soubise'. .Talking to Jan we discussed all the elements that need to come together to make a memorable experiance. Venue - tick, food - tick, wine - tick. table setting - tick, service - tick. Three hours of absolute delight. Not cheap and nor should it be. Thanks Jan and all your team for a trully wonderful day. If you want a meal to remember with a group, or for a special event contact Jan and enjoy. Visit two - Went back the following week with Sandra on a cold wet saturday [June long weekend] sat by the window looking out over a storm swept Spencer Gulf with the vineyard in the forground, a wonderful view. Enjoyed a couple of dishes straight off the menue, one dish would have been more than enougth as they were quite large. The tuna in paticular was delicious, Sandra loved the spring rolls, full of flavor, Tried the Barristers Block Cabernet Savignon again and a Cordon Cut Savignon Blanc, which went well with the berry sorbet. Left with a few wines to take home and enjoy. A great way to spend a saturday afternoon. Thanks again Jan and staff

Terrible service. Photo is of my long black with a shot of full cream milk, as shown with my order. It’s really not that difficult to read is it??

We ordered the Big Breakfast Meal Deal. I was watching the person making the burgers and she didn't give a care on how the wrre prepared and wrapped. There was broken bits of egg left on the bench after she wrapped them. I had to wait about 20min for our meal and coffees. When I finally got our meal & coffees, coffee was luke warm (after asking for extra hot), hash browns were soggy and tasted like they'd been cooked in week old oil, and the bacon & egg muffins weren't much better. No wonder we prefer to get our breakfast meals from Hungry Jacks, after we've hooked up the caravan and leaving caravan parks to move to other destinations.

It was horrible, I waited for about 20 minutes after nearly 10 peoples order comes up to me, then the person I went with, asked and the last looked around then pointed at the food which was absolutely disgusting. 1. The fries had to be cooked again as the old chips were as soggy as rain. 2 I know it was there for a long times as the icecream I had was melted and the whole thing was goop. 3. The cheeseburger patty was a thin if not less than he pickles. 4 my friend and I asked for a coke no sugar and a water and I was given a fanta which I really don't like. (just a personal preference) The service was garbage as the floor was covered in it.

Food was dry, chicken and cheese sauce tasted kinda salty and was see through. Front counter was dirty and the person who was serving me took 8 minutes to get my small coke vanilla

Without a doubt the worst burger and chips I have ever had and with a $22 price tag. Cold stale chips and a hastily thrown together chicken something. Long queue in the drive through and wait time. Don’t waste your money or time here

Ordered a HOT fudge sundae. When I left I realized they gave me the sundae without the sauce. I came back, they put it on top but it was cold. What’s the point of the hot fudge then??

Dined in foods always good..Your usual McDonalds.We always get top service happy cheery staff 😀

Food was good. I ordered seafood bento. All the items in the pack were nice except spring rolls. Not a big fan of vegetable spring rolls. And 5 star for the sushis 👌🏻

It's really good value really good food really good variety the only thing that I would add to this business is a little bit more friendliness for example people yelling out hello how are you welcome that sort of thing

Unfresh seafood, in a seafood town. Too many noodles, not enough meat. Bland soup. Tacky shopfront. Friendly staff though. Post note: They offered a full refund for that dish and explained that seafood wasn’t their speciality as they receive it frozen from Adelaide. And that to get fresh seafood, would need to go to a fancier restaurant. We also got a char kwey teow dish which was quite nice

I love LOVE love the people who work here always so friendly

Owner was rude and abrupt with service - insisted we pay $1 for every extra bowl needed to dine in with young family. Meals were also very bland. More flavour in a frozen meal at the supermarket.

Good prices, big meals, hot and fresh, yummy. The garlic chicken could be do with a little more garlic but overall we were very happy, my kids ate every bite too!

Bought Pad Thai and Curry chicken noodles. OMG totally disgusting. The curry chicken was lucky to have any chicken in it and no curry taste at all. The Pad Thai hardly had any meat, rice noodles used instead of flat. The taste was disgusting. Our chooks ended up eating it instead of us.

Hay this is a good place to come and get some home cooked food. Currently up for sale and at the time of this review it’s really a great place with friendly owner. I got the feeling they love the place and it kind of shows in the food.

Staff were fantastic, friendly and patient. Chips were one of the best I've had in a long time. Fish had good flavour but was over cooked. Hopefully it was a once off but I recommend the chips Could see staff had responded so I'm updating my review. Wanted to thank you for reaching out. I don't live close by to take up this offer. I wish you all the best

Nice clean place, could do with more seating. Chips were very good, just right with the gravy and chicken cooked perfectly. My friend got a chicken roll that he said tastes microwaved. Bun could have been lightly toasted to make it better but he still enjoyed it.

Worst chicken burger ever. To taste at all. It’s like you are eating the hot bun. Never coming again. I did ask for fastest burger but you didn’t mention you gonna microwave. If I go to some other business and ask for the fastest, they would have given me the best quality instead of serving worst quality just to make up to the time. If anyone ask for fastest, would you serve them uncooked?? No, right! Instead of pointing out the mistake, keep up to standards and mention to your customers that you are gonna microwave pre-made burgers which you are selling in the name of fastest burger and it was not cheaper as you are claiming. It was still $9

The fried chicken is juicy, but a little salty

First day in Port Lincoln and i opted for a meal at Regal Chickens above all other diners in the area. I have to say it was fantastic, the best Country Fried Chicken i have ever tasted and great friendly service from Gemima. Do yourself a favour and enjoy a great meal overlooking the foreshore. Whatchout KF see......🤓

Thought I’d finally give it a try after reopening. Not impressed at all with both the chicken and beef snitzel were way over cooked, dry, hard as a rock and undersized ( close to inedible).For $37 I expect more..2 stars I give 1 for the chips and 1 for the diane sauce.

We ordered 2 Big Signature Burrito Bowls 1 x Lamb and 1 x Beef. As they went along the service line the Lamb was always in front. When it got to the sauces, I gave my preference and as they went to put it on i informed them they were going to put it on wrong meal, they assured us that it was right. Once we got home we found i was correct. Unfortunately this is not the first time we have recieved incorrect orders

There was a piece of plastic in the food so its not good at all . people eat food because it should be good and hygiene . Its very disappointing

Normally very nice food but tonight I had uncooked scraps and overpowering onion. Not happy

The nicest service you will ever get in Zambrero is Zambrero Port Lincoln! Consistent quality food. Love it 😊

Food was good and the vibe was nice. There wasn’t too long of a wait which was good. All the staff seemed lovely.

Food was really nice and the service was great, recommend you go try a burrito!

Very nice food, very clean and nice view.

Not alot on display. Over all the oysters were pretty good. But the smoke oyster 10/10 they are great.

Oysters were filled out to perfection. Fish looked like it was just caught and reasonably priced and friendly staff .check it out.worth the trip

Great seafood, everything we got was good - squid, ling, nannygai, prawns. All good, great service. Fair prices 👌 cant imagine why youd buy seafood at the supermarkets when you've got this here

Seafood looked and smelled fresh and they had a good selection. We bought some Nannygai fillets and they were absolutely delicious. Due to travelling and storage restrictions that was all we bought.

Lots to choose from; heaps of really nice smoked fish too. Prices average to good.

I asked for $15.00 worth of the large prawns and when l opened the parcel there was not 1 large prawn. Not impressed.

Must try the pickled octopus! Delicious!!! The mussels were also really nice. Smoked salmon was a bit dry though. Will come back again!

I was served by a girl who simply had no idea. Luckily there was another lovely and friendly young girl there that knew the ropes because the one that served me couldn't even get the bread I ordered right nor the till functions. It was actually quite cringe seeing her lack of customer service skills.

Very disappointed…closed 25 min before from given time.we came at 7:35 PM as on google it was shown that closing time is 8:00 Pm

Great friendly customer service. Great food. Clean store.

Wonderful staff, downsized since I last ate there but great tucker.

Staff make a place, they are awesome

I ordered 2 foot long meatball subs, as they went to put meatballs in there were only 2 meatballs left in the sauce, so one of the girls went to get a new container of meatballs which were in the fridge, she then put the whole container in microwave to heat up but the other lady told her not to as they were being toasted so it will save time. They were "toasted" and not only were the meatballs cold the cheese wasn't even melted. Not happy, you weren't that busy and we would have waited

What can I say, it’s a subway with fresh salads and bread. The young staffer there was great, he marked which half had the chilly and which didn’t on me and my wife’s sub and we found that helpful. They’re generous with the sauce and salad so that made for a great treat!

Very disappointed and angry, I ordered my pizzas and 2 sides, they said it would be 20mins delivered (we are 4mins drive away in caravan park and can’t move the car currently) I paid over the phone, the pizza hadn’t arrived yet by 30mins so I called them back, they said it was on the way so I waited another 30mins and called them back AGAIN! they then told me that the pizzas and sides i ordered are NOT in there system however my transaction was in there system, they said they would make the pizza and send it out ASAP, keep in mind I was calm the whole time all I wanted was the food I ordered, I then got told it’s busy now so it won’t be there for ANOTHER 30mins! I said ok that’s fine just as long as I can get the pizzas and sides that I ordered, it then finally arrives and to my surprise! There is f all cheese on the pizza and f all cheese on the cheesy garlic bread! And after waiting 1 1/2 hours! For food they didn’t even offer a refund for the wait or even an extra side or nothing! Instead they put less cheese and make me wait longer AGAIN! Super rude and would not recommend this domino’s and the food itself was not the best either, I even had to add my own cheese on the cheesy garlic bread.

Absolutely disgusted with the quality of this pizza. Called up and was told that it would just be the oil from the pepperoni and that they won't remake it... We've had this pizza before and it was never this oily. Disappointing and won't be purchasing for a while.

Havent bought any from Domino's since the new mangement took over. I was pleasanlty surprised and so were our guests. Food was flavoursome and still hot when delivered.

Ordered 5 pizzas tonight. One in particular was a chicken supreme pizza. I say chicken because it was actually processed chicken roll. Not a shred of real chicken on the pizza

Our Pizzas 🍕 were soo good & with my husband having an allergy, nothing was a problem, very professional & kind, Special Thanks to the New Manager Lachlan

They make the bestest pizzas and always delivers on time, sometimes, quicker!!!😄

Asked to get a pizza without bacon and they said they can’t do it. They said they don’t want to change their menu and if we want it then we “must eat it the way they make it”. What kind of pizza place refuses to remove an ingredient? The store would save money by not adding an ingredient but manager is on a power trip and extremely rude. Only reason to refuse to exclude an ingredient is if the pizzas are pre-made and they are just heating it in the oven. No wonder the business is being sold

Best Coffee I’ve had in Port Lincoln! I also had the mushroom burger on a black bun which was delicious, I wish I took a photo of it for this review. Really enjoyed the serenity, the building is really nice, staff were great and it was the perfect place for me to stop and do some work. Very cool place to enjoy a coffee and some food. Highly recommend 👍

10/10!! We tried the coffin bay cafe first and loved it so much we had to visit! Plant based heaven!! So obsessed and the owner is soo lovely 🩷

Delicious food, massive servings we could barely finish, and super friendly staff and owner. My partner and I were so happy to find somewhere where we could eat everything on the menu. We will certainly be back next time we are in Port Lincoln!

Great cafe with an adjoining store. Friendly staff and relaxed atmosphere. Pricing very cheap and food tasted amazing. Nourish bowl with curry and toastie with coffees, also bought their sauerkraut previously. Highly recommend, definitely worth stopping in for a good feed. Very dog friendly too

This Nurrish Bowl is close to my perfect, healthy, gluten-free lunch. This little shop is full of little healthy nic nacs and coupled with a cosy chic Cafe for Coffee.

Got the lemon bliss smoothie and the big breakfast and loved both. The flavours were awesome and all being vegan is great too.

Worse Hungry Jack's ever. 1 person show. Cashier, cook, drive through. Some 15 minutes waiting for a couple of burgers.

Rude impatient guy , might have been duty manager , taking order. Not peak time (4.30 pm Tuesday afternoon) with no one behind me in the drive through, but was clearly not in the mood to be hospitable or helpful re the questions I had about their burgers . Ended up not ordering my meal because of his attitude and went down the road to McDonalds .

Manager always refuses to make hot chocolate or coffees at any time of the day or night even when no one else is in store, rude and lazy

Very bad service and staff are very bad behaviour with us and food are very cheap md low quality.

Whoppers were yummy 😋 but the jacks fried crispy chicken burger was over cooked 😔

Look.. the burger was nice .. I can't lie .. it was nice .. not 12 dollar nice .. but nice .. thanks .

Waited 5 or so minutes at the drive through, no other cars waiting. Still no service.

A great improvement t on the last time i was there

Great little dinner, friendly staff.

Great variety, amazing coffee. I keep coming back for lunch. Lovely pre-made meals. Friendly staff

Super friendly staff. Good food

The customer service is 10/10 The Food is 10/10 Every time i have gone here the service has always been top notch service. Would definitely recommend if you are looking for something great to eat for lunch

Great food, friendly service, best place in town!

Great food and coffee, great service, friendly helpful staff.

Truly amazing customer service which is so rare to find these days. So helpful, no pressure, perfect. We purchased KGW, gummy shark, oysters, and crab meat. Within 1 hour, the kids had stolen my oysters and the crab was delicious. I think we might be back within the next few days.

Service is second to none! The prawns are huge! We love oysters 🦪, it’s from sea to table, fresh ++++ ! Strongly Recommend to everyone one ☝️

A fantastic range of products available at a great price. Very friendly service too. I bought 1 dozen fresh shucked Coffin Bay oysters & they were only $17.90!

Fresh produce and helpful staff. Got a piece of the local Blue Fin tuna for sashimi and it was delicious- sweet and melt in your mouth. The cost was very reasonable, as my piece of tuna I bought was enough for three servings of sashimi. Will go back for more

We got the freshest oysters and cooked large prawns for good price. In fact I realize Myer sells their oysters slightly cheaper than the rest (yes we were oyster-hopping) Very helpful and friendly staffs , will come back !

I just want to say the seafood from here was incredible. The oysters were amazing and the lady serving us was beautiful. Super cheap and fresh. I would definitely come back. 😋

Amazing service from Gavin and his Daughter. The fresh oysters were delicious and at an amazing price too, the blue fin tuna is up next. First time in Port Lincoln and service like this has warranted me to come back and visit again 👌👌 Thank you 😌 - Luke
