New Quay Docklands has a host of restaurants to choose from.
Out of the large choice within two minutes walk, we suggest you consider some of the following:
Restaurants on New Quay Promenade:
Achelya
Turkish Halal cuisine. 23 Aquitania Way New Quay. 9602 2234. - Our view. Achelya is the closest restaurant to our facility. It is a favourite with our many guests who prefer to eat halal cuisine. Yet the restaurant is licensed and serves food options such as bacon. The menu is turkish / middle eastern. Dips are a specialty. There is a range of banquet options offered. Reviews tend to be mixed. 6/10
Mecca Bah
Middle Eastern cuisine. 55a New Quay Promenade. 9642 1300
Saganaki
Greek cuisine. 62 New Quay Promenade. 9606 0008
LiveBait
Seafood restaurant. 55b New Quay Promenade. 9642 1500
Berth
Cafe food 45 New Quay Promenade. 9670 0199 - Our view. This up market cafe is on a restaurant on a jetty over the water. Whilst that might seem attractive it means you can be sitting very close to the water and what is in the water might not be appealing while you eat. The harbour looks a lot prettier from slightly greater distance. Having said that, the food is fine without being spectacular and the prices are fair. It is noisy with the acoustics of the place such that you hear what is happening at every other table. This not a place for quiet meal. Score 6/10
Outback Jacks
Pub food 12 - 16 New Quay Promenade. 96004546. - Our view. This is pub type meal in a waterfront restaurant. The view is not as good as some other sites as the restaurant faces more west than south. Pub food includes happy hour drinks, dailt food specials and many steak choices. Don't expect gourmet food. Serves are generous. Score 6/10
Oscar's Table
Tapas Menu. 50 New Quay Promenade. 9642 4242. - Our view. This restaurant special offering is a large range of appetiser type serves. The food is very nice and the prices reasonable. We suggest start with four of these appetisers between two people. Then keep ordering more until you have had enough. The wine range is good and reasonably priced. Score 7/10
Renzo's
Italian cuisine. 46 New Quay Promenade. 9640 0550
Dock 31
Seafood. 70 New Quay Promenade. 9670 5550. - Our view. This seafood restaraunt is at the the end of the New quay restaraunt strip. Their speciality is the seafood platter. However a good range of seafood and other dishes are available. Service is good. The food well prepared and prompt. This is a quiet place most of the time, - probably because it is furthest along the strip and most folk have chosen a place to eat before walking this far. Score 6/10
Medici
Italian cuisine. 36 New Quay Promenade. 9600 4160 - Our view. One of our favourites. Large range of food other than italian. Quality is good and pricing is fair, - which is not always the case in Docklands. Choose a pasta or pizza or a meat or seafood dish. This is also the place if you are thinking risotto. Medici is also surprising in the speed it brings the freshly prepared food to your table. Some of the other restaurants on New Quay could learn something from the efficiency and system behind the scene used here. Score 7/10
Man Mo
Chinese / Malay cuisine. 42 New Quay Promenade. 9642 1997
Steakhouse
Steakhouse style. 66 New Quay Promenade. 9640 0808
BHOJ
Indian cuisine. 54 New Quay Promenade. 9600 0865 - Our view. Over priced for ordinary food. You can do better elsewhere. Meat might be cold or even overcooked and dry. There are several indian restaurants in the region to consider. Nearby the giant Coscto warehouse has a range of pre cooked and packaged indain food choices. These are considerbly better than the food at Bhoj, and of course a lot cheaper. Score 4/10
Shiraaz
Indian cuisine. 12 - 16 New Quay Promenade. 9600 0388
Restaurants on Rakaia Way:
Bopha Devi
Cambodian cuisine. 7 Rakaia Way. 9600 1887 - Our view. This is quality cambodian cuisine with wonderful flavours. This place is not cheap but the quality matches the price tag. Dinner for two with drinks might cost $100 or so. Our whole family adores their rice paper rols. These come with a choice of tofu, chicken or prawns. Bopha Devi also commonly has a lunch special involving two course and a glass of wine for $30. Great quality and value at that price. Score 8/10
Restaurants on Docklands Drive:
Blue Fire
International Grill. 12,439 Docklands Drive. 9670 8008
Restaurants on Village St:
### Village Street is 12 minutes walk from Boyd building ###
Nine Elephants
Thai cuisine 67 Village Street. 9670 9909
Platform 28
Modern Australian cuisine. 82 Village St. 9670 9933
Restaurants at Etihad stadium:
Docked
Tapas and wine bar. Concourse level of Etihad stadium, - south west corner. 9642 1882. Our view. Docked is a good vakue tapas bar. The drinks choice is extensive. There are several tapas of the day to enjoy. You can then also order full sized main meals if you like. Prices are good and service excellent. If you are planning to attend an event at Etihad, then this place is a great choice to book before or after the sports. Be sure to book. Docked also has great views over the harbour. Score 7/10
Restaurants on Victoria Harbour Promenade:
Little Nyonya
Malaysian. Victoria Harbour Promenade. 0940 0237. On the waterfront looking back at our workshop from across the water. Our view. This restaurant is disappointing. The food is poor compared with other Malay / chinese / cambodian offerings listed on this page. Courses are cheap, but the quality explains this. Score 5/10
Watermark
Australian. Victoria Harbour Promenade. 9642 1880. On the waterfront looking back at our workshop from across the water. Our view. This restaurant is the best option of the choices on the Victoria Promenade strip. The restaurant emphasises local produce in their cuisine. Food is good but not inspiring. Seafood is a specialty here. The menu is broad with pastas and risotto along with typical Australian fare. There is a seperate bar area which sometimes has local singers performing. Score 6/10
