What Travellers Say
Reviews Summary
Diners often praise Zebra Rock Restaurant for its fun, retro atmosphere and classic diner treats like milkshakes and ice cream sodas. However, some reviews mention inconsistent service, with instances of rude staff and incorrect orders. Food quality is generally considered decent, though portion sizes are sometimes noted as being on the smaller side for the price.
"Ordered the rump steak at $50 and added a prawn topper for $10. Steak was nice enough but the mashed potatoes were stone cold. When I told the gentleman who brought my food to the table about it he said he would get me some more. After eating the meal eating a desert the replacement potatoes had still not arrived and never did."
