Saltwater Grill - Melbourne

I visited this restaurant for a quick bite and was pleasantly surprised by my meal. The snapper and flake were delicious and freshly prepared (not frozen). The serving of chips (small size) was quite generous, but they tasted slightly burnt. However, they were also freshly made and big and chunky. Overall, the prices were fair, the portions were generous, and the food was good.

Yum! The batter on the fish was perfect and it was cooked just right. It was crispy, but not dry or overcooked. The fish was thick, substantial, and fresh. The chips were chunky and potatoey, just the way I prefer them. Although it wasn't the most inexpensive option, the quality and generous portion size more than made up for it.

I wasn't expecting much from a fish and chip place when it came to burgers, but both burgers were surprisingly great. They were not greasy, fresh, and extremely tasty. I ordered the Cheese Royale burger and my friend ordered the fish burger. We shared a half of each burger and couldn't decide which one was better because they were both delicious. The fish burger might have won out because the fillet was plentiful, moist, and crispy on the outside. Both burgers had good pickles and sauce. The chips were also crispy and cooked in fresh oil (which I appreciate, as I dislike the greasy texture of some deep-fried foods). The service was friendly and the prices were reasonable. I will definitely be returning.

We came here once before a long time ago and decided to dine here again after our initial choice nearby was closed. It was quite packed on a Saturday evening. Ambience was ok; there were some tables inside and some benches outside, but it felt more functional than cosy.<br/ <br/ I got the reef pack fish of the day, seafood stick, 2 calamari rings, chips, lemon and tartare) and my wife got the grilled salmon with brown rice and quinoa salad. My dish was mediocre. The fish wasn't anything special, size was also average it looks big but was quite thin). Chips were basically filler food as with most fish and chips places, dry and tasteless. Seafood stick is what it is, and the calamari rings weren't bad. The salad leaves the dish came with were quite dried out.<br/ <br/ The salmon, on the other hand, was really good. Well seasoned and fully cooked but still moist. They gave a ton of brown rice, way too much in my opinion, but hey that's their choice. Quinoa really isn't my thing but the quinoa salad was really quite good and they also gave a generous serve. It had walnuts, pumpkin and other goodies and was well dressed and delicious. I had quite a few spoonfuls, which is all you can expect out of me.<br/ <br/ Prices were average $10-20). My wife would probably come back for the salmon but I wouldn't come here for the fried food.

A girlfriend and I had dinner here the other night, we sat outside as the weather was lovely.  Lots of seating both inside and out.<br/ <br/ The menu is good with beautiful fresh fish and skewers on offer. <br/ <br/ We both ordered the grilled fish, salad and chips pack.  We choose the snapper and a greek salad option for the salad.  I am not the biggest fish and chips person but this was really nice, perfect on a warm night too as it was not heavy or oily.<br/ <br/ Pricing is what you'd expect for the area, the produce was good quality so worth the value.
