I had some time to kill in downtown Cairns before departing TNQ, so I walked along the lagoon and stumbled upon this place (it's in a row of restaurants but had the best menu). The food was amazing, the staff was great, the view was incredible. This was the best way possible to spend my last two hours in paradise. More

We only had an hour as we were headed off to Atherton for a few days and this was perfect for our needs. There was both an exhaustive a-la-carte menu plus a special lunch menu. At $16, the Moroccan lamb and steak and chips were both good quality and excellent value. We’d been to Morocco only months ago and this... More

Although competitively priced, we were disappointed. We ordered the Moroccan spiced chicken and sweet potato prawn gnocchi. The chicken had no taste of Moroccan spices, and was fatty and deep fried. Kfc has more flavour and probably less fat. My husband thought it was a little small although the prawn taste came through strongly. He said it was nit what... More

We are locals and were so happy to see Cairns buzzing over the Easter weekend. Many of our restaurants have been experiencing very lean times for many months now so it was very pleasing to see Pescis turning over the tables more than once on Easter Sunday. The food & the service was wonderful - as usual. It is our... More

We didnt plan to eat here but were in the area and decided to try it. It turned out to be fantastic! We are vegetarian and there were enough options for two of us to have different options. We shared a few dishes for entree and two entree sized mains. All was so good I closed my eyes several times... More

After going to resturant to resturant we found this hidden treasure. We ordered the seafood platter for 2. It was not only beautifully presented but the seafood itself was Devine. It was fresh and tasted incredible. It was worth the price we paid. More

This is one place where we spoil ourselves. They are more than accommodating. We have had a backwards meal there and not an eyelid was batted! More

We had dinner at Pesi's on a quiet Sunday night as it was highly recommended in the travel brochures. We were not disappointed. Firstly, they had Peroni on tap. Great beer and served very cold (a great start to our meal). The Japanese waitress was lovely and kind. She always made sure that our water glasses were full. My partner... More
