Reviewed By Michelle I
We came here 6 years ago and it was amazing. Today we ordered natural and Kilpatrick. The natural were great. However the Kilpatrick were disgusting. There was a really thick and sour sauce that beared no resemblance to worchestshire. Also the oysters under this sauce were ridiculously tiny. Hi Michelle I, Thank you for taking the time to review Oyster Bar Holdfastshores and also welcome back! We are pleased to hear that you enjoyed your natural oysters however are disappointed to hear your feedback on our Kilpatrick oysters. I have passed on your feedback to our kitchen and management team who will use your comments to improve product and quality control. All feedback, positive and constructive, goes towards our staff training and should you return to us again I am confident that you will not be disappointed.

This is without doubt, one of the best restaurants in Glenelg.A second or third generation, family run business, with great waiting staff. The food is simply stunning. The wine list covers more than enough options to keep everyone happy and the prices are reasonable.And people who arenât after a steak, or even red meat, are catered for well too.

The Strand is my favorite restaurant to eat in Glenelg. Iâve been there with friends and family many times for various occasions and special nights out. I recommend it often at my workplace to colleagues and to other friends. I really love the food, friendly staff and atmosphere. Iâm not sure if the restaurant has the same chef, or if itâs changed hands but last weekend it just didnât deliver. The same friendly staff were great as usual but the food wasnât as good. I always order the same dish - a delicious salad dish which is covered in an amazing lemon dressing. My meal this time however looked dry and didnât appear to have any dressing at all. My husband politely asked if they could bring me some. Apparently the chef has changed the sauce to beetroot, which (to me!) wasnât nearly as good. My sister and mother ordered Morton Bay bugs. These meals had a few Morton Bay bugs on a massive bed of raw red cabbage with a tiny sprinkling of walnuts and beetroot. Although the copious layers of red cabbage was colorful garnish, it was inedible. Hungry afterwards, we told the waitress it was inadequate and she said sheâd change the menu to make the meal an entree rather than a main meal. My sister and mother subsequently asked if they could possibly have some bread because they were still hungry. We were disappointed afterwards to see that we were charged extra for both the bread and the dressing. To me, it just seemed petty. When I mentioned it politely to the waitress afterwards, she gave me a dollar coin. It was a kind gesture but I felt it was demeaning and it embarrassed me. The other meals at our table were delicious as usual. If it were my restaurant, I wouldnât want people to leave dissatisfied and /or hungry.

Took the husband to the Festival of Food experience at the Moseley for his birthday. Was a bit worried that the main meal may be sample size and not enough food for him. However, the food was all wonderful and the main course was enough to satisfy the husband. Really enjoyed the afternoon and am considering doing it again. Keep up the good work!Thanks for the fantastic review! We're so pleased you enjoyed your afternoon with us and look forward to seeing you next time.

Coming from Qld I was looking for a restaurant that served a vegetarian gnocchi (fritti di gnocche con zucca).The reviews were good so we went an tried it out. It was amazing...my husband had the pasta marinara (frutti di mare soffocato) and enjoyed it. Loved the cosy atmosphere and the staff were lovely. Will definately go again when in Adelaide/Glenelg.

Reviewed By Vandieman111
This was not a very good restaurant. The service was very average with one of the waiters spending most of his time watching a football match on the television, even when taking orders. The staff had to be called over for everything from getting water to replenishing drinks. The place is very noisy and so conversations at one end of the table were just not able to be heard at the other. As for the food - well the grilled lamb was good but not just well matched at all to coleslaw. And it took over an hour for the meals to arrive! It was generally not a good experience and so it is difficult to match this with other very positive reviews - clearly it is a bit hit or miss, and unfortunately we missed.I am sorry you didn't enjoy your experience at The Mediterranean as we pride ourselves on good food and service. Can you please get in touch with me so I can take it further and properly train my staff. We would like you to give us another go as that is not what The Mediterranean is about.Chris

Booked online and missed call bk from owner. Rang back was told it was booked but would fit us in outside. We chose the seafood platter based on special occasion and pictures seen. The platter was a single plate, the lobster was 2 tiny finger strips and with a thick sauce, their wasn't alot for the $65per head! Drinks were expensive but staff were friendly.Hi Barbara L,Thank you for your feedback. We are sorry that you did not enjoy your Seafood Platter on your recent visit to our restaurant.We welcome all feedback and have taken your comments on board.Our Seafood Platter is our most popular dish on the menu, and we receive so much wonderful feedback on it so it saddens us to hear you did not enjoy it on this occasion. We source mainly local Australian Seafood for the platter which has the following quantities on it; 10 pieces of Australian Calamari 4 Australian Prawns 4 Scallops 2 Fillets of SA Garfish 1 Whole Soft Shell Crab2 Fillets of NT Barramundi 1 Rock Lobster Tail (not advertised as Crayfish) Plus your choice of potatoes or fries and garden salad, accompanying sauces & lemon We think that the price of local fresh seafood, and the quantities on the platter absolutely justifies the price of $65.00 per person. Thank you again for your feedback, and we sincerely hope that you come back and try something else next time you are in Glenelg. Many thanks,Nick CardoneOwnerCardone's Seafood & Grill
