Meet my eldest son who was in Town for lunch here. When he was little we often had dinner here on weekends. It is on the edge of the beautiful wharf in Cairns. Out side. At the time it was a venue that was one of its own and unique once upon a time.. Now more out standing venues have... More

Staff ok, nothing awesome. its a real serve yourself type restaurant, more a bar. but you'd expect cheaper! I was really happy with my Mexican Fajitas but partner's crusted pork left a lot to be desired.

Had quick lunch here, steak sandwich, surprisingly tender, salad was not dressed which let it down. Hot day but very nice sitting in the shade of some trees watching the boats and people go past.

Stunning views overlooking Trinity Inlet ... a great place for a meal or drink. For a view its best to visit on a fine day or evening as there is no shelter outside. Rates as one of the best views in Cairns to sit and relax at sunset with a drink overlooking the inlet, moored boats and ranges. Food has... More

Mondos at the Hilton We were looking forward to our meal here after not eating here for a while. I must say I was a little disappointed in our experience this time. There was intermittent showers so obviously staff did not sit people outside. That was fine and we were asked to wait, which we did. However after forty minutes... More

Food is always good and location is wonderful, however if it is raining they have to then cram everyone inside and it is extremely noisy, sounds more like a cafeteria than a restaurant. Dining out side on the river edge is the best spot. Just unfortunate they do not have some kind of over head protection from the rain when... More

As a local, I find it hard to sample the myriad of waterfront dining options here in Cairns as I always gravitate back to Mondos. A small group of us had lunch here again recently and as always we were impressed with the fabulous food, outlook & service.For me, it's hard to go past the Cajun Calamari or the Spiced... More

Best cairns waterfront restaurant ,just dropped in for a drink in the afternoon and watched the ferries returning from the reef , not happy with their weekend or sunday surchage if they still do that, visited here several times over the last fifteen years or so and still the greatest atmosphere ,one can't imagine living anywhere else.

always a good time at Mondos, being able to eat on the grass on the waterfront in a brilliant location, service may be a bit slow on a busy night but it is only because they take a great care in preparing the meals, great for having a meal and kicking back with friends, family's are catered for but preference...

No table service offered to a handicapped person. Expected to order at a counter as if in a pub. Food edible, but along with the wines high end prices. No servers supplied and many dishes you are expected to eat with fingers. Ugh.
