    Great variety of food and great at meeting my difficult dietary requirements. Maybe a bit pricey but a good place for an sexy dinner. Staff seem lovely and wine list bliss.

    Very shit service !!!! Made booking earlier but give us a shit table. Literally a corner in the restaurant. The manager on duty ( a male person ) should be fired!!! Very terrible experience , won’t be here anymore. Strongly don’t reckon this restaurant !!!

    Ochre is 1 of a few rare restaurants that features Australian bushfood and native ingredients on their menu so I was definitely keen for a visit. I decided to go for salt & pepper leaf crocodile & prawns and wattleseed pavlova. The crocodile & prawns were great but the batter was sooo salty, although the pickles and lemon aspen sambal were able to tone it down a little bit. When I mentioned how salty it was the waitress explained that due to the nature of the native ingredients, it tasted indeed more powerful. The pavlova came out looking like a swiss roll but tasted like a pav! The wattleseed cream has a nutty taste to it and I’m glad the Davidson plum was there to give it a different contrast and texture, otherwise the whole thing would have been very sweet. All in all it was a great experience, my waitress Karly was super friendly and approachable. There are plenty of other things on the menu that I would definitely come back and try next time. instagram.com

    Came to try this place as it was heavily advertised. We had the 3 course tasting menu.Had the Tempura Gulf bugs and Salt & Native Pepper Leaf Crocodile & Prawns for entre. They were both delightful. For mains Morganbury pork fillet and sirloin….. had asked for the sirloin to be medium done. It was overcooked, once i notified the staff they brought around another ( it was different in presentation aswell) again it was overcooked and tough to cut through, i couldn’t eat it and my partner was happy to eat a 2nd main. And then for dessert we had Mango Delice and quandong brle. Again both fantastic desserts. Besides the little main hiccup on the main the rest of the meal was great, staff pleasant and attentive.

    We went to Ochre as a group of 12 for a birthday celebration the setting was great and the wait service was very friendly and attentive . Unfortunately the food let it down badly. The entrees were good and tasty but overpriced for the very small portion that you receive . The main meals that we had were very disappointing, my wife’s pasta dish was dry and rubbery with over cooked clams and prawns . My main was terrible the seafood was all very overcooked and the laksa sauce was almost tasteless obviously who ever made this sauce has no idea what laksa should taste like and with tough rice noodles the dish was not nice at all. The calamari dish was stone cold .My son inlaw had the $44 steak which was about 1/2 the size of a tennis ball and was gone in 2 bites neadless to say he was still very hungry when he had finished. For the quite expensive prices the food was very disappointing and I would not go back again.Dave

    My family and I had a beautiful dinner at Ochre recently. All of the food was delicious with unique and interesting flavours, and the service was attentive without being overbearing. The pork belly was one of the best entrees I’ve ever had! I would definitely recommend for a lovely, out of the ordinary meal.
