"What a great way to celebrate a birthday here. All staff members were friendly and accommodating to our needs. They made the birthday dinner special with a surprise dessert. Food and drinks were delicious. We ate everything on our plates. Love the fresh seafood and other Italian cuisines they have on the menu. This was our first time but we can’t wait till our next visit."

"Overall left a little disappointed.
The staff, location, ambience and service is terrific. You cannot fault the team on that whatsoever.
The disappointment was the food overall that wasn't reflective of the high prices.
We ordered the Calamari for entree - it was fine. For $29, the portion was very small.
Also ordered, the Prawn Tagliatelle - this was a standout dish. Delicious!
Roast Potatoes - good. Great garlic flavour.
Margherita Pizza - this was super disappointing and fine at best. They have a Rolls Royce of a pizza oven as you enter and the pizza was a thin crust. No puffed crust as you'd expect out of their ovens. Really disappointing.
Drinks were not bad.
Overall - 3/5. Probably good place to have a drink and a snack to enjoy the views."

"This was not our first time at Pier farm and each time we choose to go here for dinner it never disappoints. Food always seems to just get yummier! Atmosphere is amazing and romantic. Me and my partner love going here for a dinner together. Staff are wonderful and attentive. Food portions, flavours, staff, atmosphere and the stunning view of the water are definitely worth a visit!"
