The food was delicious and the service was fantastic. . The noise level was high as it was Christmas Day lunch so we couldn’t hear each other very well. A big thank you for the menu that was delivered and for not including a drinks package like some do as it’s not an option if you are the driver.

We are a family from Melbourne staying in Caloundra where dinner choices are poor and no great places to book in this area of Caloundra. Kids wanted pizza so did the search and found this place. Food looks great and was delicious. Pizzas are Woodfire and ingredients fresh. Service was great too and very friendly. Highly recommend venturing out of area and going here.
