Ralph LimOctober 13, 2012Visited The Balcony three weeks back while I was on a vacation in Byron Bay. They serve really good food & the service is top-notch.
T MNovember 3, 2023Great happy hour deals. Famous for oysters and sea food. Bookings essential for groups. Ideal for couples.
Jenna BrownOctober 30, 2014There's a vegan harvest plate on the dinner menu that was lovely and the chilli coconut cocktail is delicious!
Sam CreasySeptember 10, 2017$1 Oyster during August and, I believe, every Wednesday. Not big but at $1 each they were amazing. Great margaritas too.
Angela van der VeldenApril 8, 2014Try the roast capsicum or the roast pumpkin and prawn risotto if you're looking for a foodgasm
Thomas HirnschallNovember 15, 2015Great Cocktails- we tried The Roseberry and The Carribean Garden: really recommendable
Jean-Baptiste GalleAugust 17, 2013Beautiful place, nice ambiance and good coffee! A place to go to feel the beat of Byron
David SchenkAugust 19, 2011Can't speak for others but we experienced some of the friendliest & most attentive service in a long time...and the food is all exceptional
Georgia Wallace-CrabbeDecember 29, 2013Cocktail was good, service was slow, but aspect is great (only place with a view in Byron?)
Goura WhitehurstNovember 7, 2013Don't order cocktails they will take a lifetime during happy hour. Or order more than a one at a time. Other than than nice place.

We are a few people here and we are waiting for one hour and our food looks like never came.😭
Service for breakfast is great. Fresh ingredients. Tasty
sally bMarch 24, 2010Creme brûlée is the BEST. Along with the lamb cutlets and prawn and chorizo tapas. Yuuuum!
Nick HewsonAugust 22, 2010Staff are very friendly and helpful. Have drink on the balcony and watch the sun go down
Carrie CMay 15, 2010Friendly service, cocktail for the girls--> Endless Summer...or guys who like fruity cocktails...
Eli BlanchartJanuary 28, 2011Great tapas!!! Well prepared is a pity the serrano ham isn't good at all...
Magestic ScarinciSeptember 18, 2017It is not what it used to ne anymore...wjere are the spanish tapas? Food is not up to scratch like it use to be 😔
Dave BabylonJanuary 30, 2013Tapas was good. Service was acceptable. Cocktails were slightly overpriced for their lack of effort
Mauricio | Digital Marketer @ eDigitalApril 26, 2011Arrogant waitresses. Greatly decorated. $19.5 for big breakky... You can have the same for almost half the price somewhere else.
Filippos VenetopoulosApril 24, 2019Bad service! Were waiting 45 minutes in our meal to tell us the main is not coming as its not available anymore! No apologies or anything :(
Peter RossMarch 3, 2015Worst Margaritas I've ever tasted, practically a glass of lime juice. Nice view though.
- Amy DalgleishMarch 15, 2010The chocolate fondants is to die for. Avoid the smoking section in the restaurant tho?! Not worth dying for...
- Don't mind the rude staff. Persist until they give you a seat. The tapas and cocktails are almost worth it.
- Tapas about sunset with a nice cold @stoneandwood beer magic.
Andrew O'BrienNovember 21, 2012Got some of the tapas dishes....not particularly bad, but nothing particularly good either.
L MSeptember 13, 2011They serve cold meals and blame it on "the breeze" in the kitchen. And then get shitty when challenged about serving cold, expensive meals
Kristian KreinerApril 19, 2010Dont ever come here if u have kids, the personel dont know service at all, the menu is very strict when it comes to children, and the attitude arrogant so dont go there !!!
- RobertJune 26, 2010Terrible service. Waitresses are not interested and then proceeded to "invented" our order. Food was good though
