    D.E.L.I.C.I.O.U.S - great friendly service with a cute fun fact about how they grow and harvest their own betel leaf. The food is next level delicious with happiness in every bite. Can’t go past the Spicy Beef Tartare but tried the Prawn Pad See Ew for the first time and just wondering how the heck they got the garlicky, smokey, sweet, and sour flavours so bang on. I’ll be dreaming of Eastwoods til I get back to Airlie again.

    Food was absolutely the best we have ever had and we've been many many times. The only criticism I would have about the entire meal was the washing, not due to quality or presentation just I believe the fish could have used a bit of flavour. Maybe a soak in a marinade with some gin?
