I rated O’Reillys as a 1 because it was such a terrible lacklustre experience. The service and food choices were terrible. I raved about O’Reillys to friends and family now I’m backtracking big time. Never again! For the long trip up the mountain to experience sub optimal cafe and facilities. O’Reillys you can do better than this.

We stayed for 5 nights in a 3 bedroom Villa - a family of 6 adults and two children. We decided to have one night off from cooking our own meals and have what we thought would be a treat in the main restaurant. In short, very disappointing and we could have fared much better in the villa. Overpriced, slow service and mostly poor meals. The crab was particulary bad as too the steaks. Only good dish was the starter scallops. Certainly didn't tempt us to return.

New menu with scallops and crab and others dishes is not what you expect from a Retreat in the bush designed for bush walkers and those getting away from the city. The cost for 3 courses was $100 from 13yrs+ and for a family of 4 was $400. Overpriced. We missed the cob loaf and fresh soups O'Reilys was famous for and fresh salads and there was nothing on the menu we could eat. Exotic seafood dishes is not something the average Australia eats. I would have expected the overseas visitors would have struggled too with a main priced at $50. Please bring back normal Aussie food at a price locals can afford as it is way too expensive for a 3day stay with it costing $1200 for dinner and $480 for breakfast and is not financially affordable. The cafe on the other hand has yummy food and fresh salads including soup, but only open for breakfast and lunch. We did try the bar food, but very limited.

I had read the reviews of this restaurant and was not planning on going, however due to power outages in the villas from a storm ended up booking dinner in two nights. I was expecting the worst but was pleasantly surprised. Staff friendly, food reasonable priced. Had the 1. stuffed chicken breast which was a bit bland but juicy, veges nice and crispy 2. paroardelle Ragu which was delicious,3. Mushroom risotto, 4. Pizza. The desserts were the highlight 1. Sticky date pudding 2. Warm chocolate pudding with sauce. Would return again.

The nice dining room was full of promise and had served up a great breakfast earlier. Unfortunately for dinner it was an experience I had not banked on. I ordered the chicken breast that was meant to be stuffed with cheese and other things. When it came, it had all been cut open (butterflied) but had nothing inside it and had been cooked until hard and rubbery. This was honestly the worst restaurant meal I have had in Australia and easily the worst chicken I've ever had. It seems they forgot the stuffing. The veg was undercooked and too hard and the desserts average. I could not eat the meal. This was such a disappointing meal all round and not anywhere near as good as I would make at home. Sadly cannot recommend despite the outstanding wait staff. Special mention to Marine for her absolutement superb service!

Lovely atmosphere and staff but the food is overpriced and poor quality. There are supposed to be vegan options but they had none, and my partner who isn't vegan found her food lacked seasoning and flavour. Way too expensive, better to pack your own food and give the restaurant a miss.

Had already read the reviews on google & TA so didn't have high expectations but bamb got slammed with dissapointment! After spending $150 on Mothers day picnic with wine at winery and then $300 on 1 nights accommodation, I was already expecting the dinner to be around $200 but thought maybe it would be alright. Definitely not! Ok the breakdown: -Ordered soup = $24!! For substandard soup that could pass for $4. -The kids spaghetti and meatballs = gross, not cooked well at all and felt bad that my son ate some of it. The meatballs were dark black and spaghetti was clumped together, very poorly cooked or taken from an old batch. -the kids banger n mash came with no mashed potatoe!!! Supposed to be with peas as well but substituted with green beans. Was told mashed is hidden underneath and had to show/prove it wasn't there, lol embarking for waitress = nothing there - at least they gave full serve to make up for it but how could they miss leaving it out 🤔 - the $90 lamb shank board = enough said, it was $90 and ridiculously priced for what it was! - paid extra for kids meal to come with drink and desert = $20. Desert said, jello with "fresh fruits and cream", just served with red jello/ nothing else! Then to top off this ridiculously priced meal.... the "manager" tried to get me to pay for a bill that had kids meal at full price= $16 for meal, $4 for drink and $8 for desert (X2 = $28) when supposed to be $20 packaged. Ridiculous experience when spending so much money on sub-standard food, felt that this was a little trick to see how many suckers check the bill for accuracy and mistakenly pay extra! Needless to say, will never dine here again and glad we only stayed 1 night---> advice to others is don't eat here dope 😉 Oh and service was shocking even to get someones attention and long wait times = boo! Lucky to get 2 stars 🌟

The food and the atmosphere was perfect and just what we had envisioned when we decided to celebrate two birthdays there. A special mention/shoutout to the fabulous Katie who served us.

Ordered two 250g rump steaks, chips and salads. They looked great, but were cold when they arrived, two completely different sizes and not medium rare as requested. One steak was well done and the other was VERY rare. Chips and salad were nice! But the meal in all was not worth $36 per steak.

The location is beautiful and rooms were nice but the food was absolutely terrible for the amount of money you pay. It’s very evident that they either use extremely low quality ingredients, or the ingredients are far from fresh, or the kitchen staff don’t really know what they are doing, or all 3. I’m not the kind to complain but I honestly have never felt so ripped off paying $140 for dinner for 2 in my life, and don’t want anyone else to have the same experience. Go and stay there, it is beautiful, but please bring your own food until they make some changes to their kitchen!

We ordered the A La Carte dishes Chefs special 2 dishes $68...wtf. Chicken breast was super dry and small and the Taggletelle was equivalent to a food court dish at best. Kids menu $20 was a tiny steak very small soda and 2 scoops of ice cream. Also steak dry cooked to a millimetre of cardboard. Wine and beer $10 on average only small in volume. Talk about taking advantage of a captured audience!!! I thought I was in a ski resort but I was just a short drive from semi civilization. Won't get me again $140 and still hungry!!!

You're in national park and have a monopoly on everything - it's not going to be amazing, but it was perfectly acceptable. The decor hasn't been updated since the 90s but that's part of the charm. They have some weird addiction to soup - so much soup poured out of that kitchen! But the slow cooked lamb was harmless and presented beautifully on a timber board, and the pumpkin was genuinely excellent. The cheese was supermarket quality, but again, expected and not a disaster. The service was friendly and efficient.

We thoroughly enjoyed our meal at O’Reilleys. The pumpkin soup was not a great start but we selected the shared lamb plate. That seemed to be the meal of the night. There were many boards being carried out groaning with lamb as well as a beautiful selection of vegetables. The meat was melt in your mouth and the veggies delicious. We selected the sticky date pudding for our dessert and it was enormous but also enormously delicious. We had to take half of it back to our room. The staff were some of the best I have ever encountered. They were professional, friendly and informative. Nothing was too much trouble. Our experience was first class and I would highly recommend it to anyone.

We were really disappointed with the dining experience at O’Reilly’s Dining room. There was no a la carte menu. We had to pay $55 each for a 3 course menu of soup, main and dessert. The food was sub standard as was the staff. As for the restaurant it is badly in need of some refurbishment and deep clean. Old carpet, light fittings and furniture. The character of the place is great, but in neglect.

Decades ago the restaurant served rustic food in large quantities all with a friendly smile. O'Reillys have kept up with trends and now serve only breakfast and dinner in the dining room and lunch is available in the mountain cafe only. We took the package at $85 pp per day and it is good value. Bookings are necessary due to Covid restrictions but you don't notice. Breakfast starts at 7am and there are good choices, even a European plate with cheeses, meats, pastries, fruit and yoghurt. You can get separate serves of fruit, yoghurt, pastries and breads done your way. The porridge is quite good and I enjoyed the omelette with cheese, spinach and mushroom. Expresso and cappuccino are a few dollars more. Dinner is a 3 course affair starting with soup, usually a choice of two. The cauliflower and chorizo was different but pumpkin is an old favourite. The main course offers fish (salmon), chicken and meat dishes as well as pizza. The standout dish for us was a slow cooked lamb for two served on a board with roast vegetables, rustic pumpkin, beans and potatoes with a red wine reduction, mint sauce and a mustard spread. It was mouth watering and delicious. The pork cutlet was also a generous meal and well cooked. However the desserts were a stand out with professional plating. We tried the panna cotta, the cheesecake, the warm chocolate pudding but my favourite was the sticky date pudding which was surprisingly light. Our waiter Cody suggested the Shane O'Reiily shiraz which was a good match with the food and reasonably priced. Cody was a lot of fun and Christie also was bright and cheery. All the staff were a credit to O'Reillys. We would come back in a heart beat to repeat this fabulous experience.

We recently stayed at Oreillys and our package included daily breakfast and daily 3 course dinner as well as afternoon tea in the dining room.The breakfast was our favourite. Due toCOVID there is no buffet but instead you are given a menu and you can order as much as you like. The orange juice is included and freshly squeezed also.Dinner is good and there is a lot of variety on the menu to choose from. We enjoyed the share lamb board one night and pizzas on the other night. Staff were friendly and efficient and the dining room seems well run. If you are staying at the retreat I would recommend booking a dining package in advance as this is better value.

Hey allWe have been here from 27/12/19 and staying till 1/1/20.Accomodation: Positives - Spa villa has nice view - Spa bath is big - aircon and fireplace - lots of fridge space and good facilities - Foxtel Negatives - Tiny bbq - TV is outdated and can’t even use a USB Food- Paid $56 for 2 pizzas delivered to our room, it would have to be the worst pizza I have had, was ice cold and looked like a 8 year old slapped it together - Paid $47 for lunch at cafe, chips were ice cold and still frozen, returned the chips and second time they came, all the chips were white and cold again, just threw them in the bin. Hotdog was average and chicken bites were decent. To be honest, the food in this place is the worst I have had on any holiday and outrageously expensive. You are way better off just cooking your own meals things to do- Lots of nice walks - Wild life show is nice - some stuff books out in advance, so make sure you pre book

Breakfast - very ordinary - juice machine only works sometimes and rarely has any squeezed juice in it. Coffee machine kept failing during our stay. Only 1 toaster so it's crowded in that area and the bread ran out. Hot foods are not topped up regularly and look like they have been sitting for ages. Eggs can be made to order but the sign advertising this is tucked away on one side of the counter. The order can arrive within minutes or half hr...don't bother to get your other hot food till they arrive.Other dishes also ran out and were not refilled quickly.Dinner - Very small selection of meals to choose from. Steak was chewy. Very small servings. Expected a better quality and better presentation for the high price. I saw a lot of food being return to the kitchen from other tables.Would suggest that you go upstairs to the bar and get some pizza and enjoy the view and log fire - way better !

There is a decent variety to choose from, entre, main and dessert. Kids meals were decent sized and comes with ice cream or jelly and a drink. Breakfast was average, what you would expect from a continental breakfast. They do have a freshly squeezed orange juicer which was great and you can see it in action.They do not serve lunch, lunch is at the cafe close by.Morning tea is also wonderful however if you turn up too late then you may miss out.

I'm not going to slag this cafe/ restaurant off completely - the food is average and overpriced but when my girlfriend and I ordered some coffees and food the barista looked shocked when I asked if I could have our coffees (at $6 each) in mugs - not take away containers. He begrudgingly gave them to us in mugs but didn't seem happy about it. We avoid single use items where possible and would have thought a cafe located amongst such beautiful nature would want to avoid the use of plastics in their establishment.

So schön das Resort ist, so gut das Frühstücksbuffett - leider wird das Abendrestaurant seinem Anspruch nur mäßig gerecht. Eine Chorizo-Pizza dann mit australischer Wurst, wie ich sie beim Frühstück hatte, dem Gast vorzusetzen, bedarf schon einiger gastronomischer Frechheit. Dass jede Pizza auf der Karte (auch eine Margarita) gleich 28 AUD kostet, muss man wohl der abgelegenen Lage zuschreiben. Mitreisende Freunde hatten Steak, das leider statt medium schon arg well done auf den Tisch kam. Schade. Keine Empfehlung.

Wir haben das Paket (Frühstück und Abendessen). Das Frühstück ist eine Katastrophe. Das Abendessen aber nicht. Hervorzuheben ist, dass man nicht einfach ein kleineres Menü bekommt, sondern aus der gesamten regulären Karte. Wir nehmen als Hauptspeise zusammen (ist für 2 Personen) die Lammkeule. Eine riesige Portion, die auch für 3 - 4 Personen gereicht hätte. Es schmeckt aber auch wirklich wunderbar. Das Gemüse ist auf den Punkt. Der Kürbis ist wunderbar süß! Wir sind so satt, dass wir auf den Nachtisch verzichten. Man bietet uns aber an, den Käse, den wir ursprünglich haben wollten, einzupacken und uns mitzugeben. Wir verzichten, aber mehr Fairness von einem Restaurant kann man nicht erwarten. Die Räumlichkeiten sind sehr rustikal und könnten ein upgrade vertragen. Auch ein Staubsaugereinsatz würde helfen. Deshalb keine 5 Sterne. Das Essen hat die durchaus verdient.

A big week followed by a big drive at sunset. We made it to O’Reillys and had a wonderful dinner. The gluten free options were plenty . The local recommended wine was great. The garlic pizza was the only let down- not yummy and overpriced. We sat right at the viewing window to watch possums come and go for their food. The service was attentive. A relaxed atmosphere.

Being in a remote location, if you don't take your own food or want a night out you only have one choice and this is it. They are Eco friendly using things like paper straws which is good to see. They have a natural wood decor, which again suits the environment it's set in. The food had small portions and large prices. The salmon was plain and without much flavour, the curry was very good. The service was good. We ordered the Duck which was around $85 for two people. When it came out it looked really good but we soon found it was very dry and over cooked. It was so bad we could not eat it. We were offered a drink or a dessert in compensation, I would have preferred not to have had to pay for it as we did not eat it. We ordered the Chocolate indulgence dessert and were disappointed to find the profiteroles were stale. The times for happy hour in our Villa information were wrong and so we turned up late to the bar and missed it. Overall we would recommend you bring your own food and bypass the restaurant

We visited the O'Reilly's restaurant for dinner to try and find an interesting location for some international guests however our experience was so bad I will never go back there again and I will certainly never take guests there! After some rather underwhelming and overpriced food, we were happy enough with the experience because of the lovely staff, the amazing atmosphere and views- that is until the end of our meal when we ordered coffee and everything went wrong! To start with when I went to order the coffee at the bar the waiter ignored me in order to serve some off-duty staff members. The group of men that claimed to work there were buying beer and were extremely rude. When I finally got to order they jumped in and said they would make the coffees for our group, which seemed a little strange. After waiting 20 minutes the coffees did not arrive, we asked the waiter if he had forgotten and he said there was a problem with their printer?!? Ok, we thought, we can wait. Again we sat waiting for this coffee we had paid for and again nothing arrived! Finally, giving up we asked for the coffees to go and the waiter assured us they would be ready when we got downstairs. We waited in the foyer and still no coffee?!? We asked the manager at the front desk what was going on and she again assured us that the coffees were coming. Again we waited until another waiter came out and rudely asked us what our problem was! I asked him if he was being serious, we repeated the order and after another wait, the coffee finally arrived. We were eager to leave and get home, however when we got to the road out we were told that it had just closed for the night and we would have to pay to stay?!!!!! I explained what had happened at the restaurant and how we were held up, fortunately, the traffic manager understood and did not seem surprised. He organised for us to be escorted down the mountain. He also mentioned that the signs advising guests that the road would be closed at night had 'mysteriously' gone missing. You think that would be the end of it but we were also terribly sick that evening, not sure if it was the coffee or the food but I 100% advise against visiting this place. I even joined trip advisor just so I could warn other people against visiting this restaurant.

Came up to O’Reilly’s mountain to enjoy a day out and a bit to eat. The food here is actually very good and didn’t disappoint. We ordered a pizza and wine and the staff were friendly and quick. The place was clean and a view that will take your breath away. It is only walking distance to some great all’s views and feeding the birds which you can pay $4 for. There is indoor and outdoor area with a nice choice available to choose from for food options. We recommend get up there a little before lunch to beat the rush and get a good park also take a jumper it can get chilly at times. But a lovely spot to eat and drink while soaking up the atmosphere and activities on offer.

Paid $20 for a defrosted supermarket beef patty burger and equally disappointing chips. First and last time I eat there.

Scary drive up the mountain...road works, sheer drops, other drivers...but so worth it! Loved our room with its glorious views. Had a couple of drinks (happy hour) in the bar watching the sunset. Excellent meal (signature lamb for two) in the restaurant, watching a possum through the window. Began our first full day with a (free) bird walk and enjoyed the many trails, especially the tree tops walk and out to Pythons Rock, then relaxed in the jacuzzi. This place is amazing and there are so many thoughtful touches...a fantastic place to unwind and enjoy nature.

Spent a lovely morning walking the rainforest and feeding the birds then stopped for a snack at the cafeteria with superb views from the deck. There was a tempting display of prepared sandwiches and wraps in the chilled cabinet so we ordered 2 in Turkish bread, one wrap and a portion of chips. There was no indication that they would be heated in a panini press. When they arrived the nice fresh salad was wilted and slimy and the smoked salmon was cooked through. Unusual to say the least. Ruined would be a better description. Chips were nice and a big bowl, more than the three of us could manage. Stunning view of the mountains.

Die Preise in diesem Lokal sind völlig überteuert und unverhältnismässig hoch im Kontext zur Qualität der Speisen! Frühstück AUD 35, ein Nachtessen mit 3 Gängen ohne Wein kaum unter AUD 65. Die Freundlichkeit des Personals hält sich sehr in Grenzen und überzeugt nicht. Krass war gestern die sehr wortlose und abgelöschte Abfertigung an der Kasse des Self Service Mountain Cafe in der Anlage. Man merkt deutlich, dass hier keine Konkurrenz vorhanden ist und was eine wettbewerbsloser Betrieb ausmachen kann. Sehr schade.

Lunch overlooking a rain forest is always a good week-end treat. O'Reilly's Cafe (not the resturant) is a good place to start. The Panini was filling and tasty. Lime Milkshake to follow - perfect. Mountain views - priceless.

Had a rundown feel. After such a windy climb up to plateau it could it was a disappointment. Arrived before 10 hoping to get big breakfast with a view but only thing available was take away with limited food. Customer service not very friendly. Place has gone down hill. Such a pity as it has so much potential with its location.

Great way to spend an afternoon feeding the wild birds.. Buy the birdfoof from the cafe and head to the feeding area. One of the highlights of Lamington NP

We were really impressed with the menu here. And most importantly it was executed well- the food was delicious and well presented. So often with hotels in this kind of environment, the quality of food offering is overpriced & poor to average. I can certainly say that this is far from the case here. The wines from their own vineyards are also well worth trying.

Teníamos las comidas aquí. Para los visitantes del Reino Unido este lugar sería caro, pero la mayoría de los Australianos verían como correcta. Tuvimos un desayuno que nos preparó para el día. Si no comes mucho en este momento sería un desperdicio. Las comidas del bar era mejor relación calidad-precio como el restaurante era más finos restaurantes. Por suerte, teníamos una botella de vino en nuestro equipaje, así que termine un día precioso en nuestro balcón. Gracias Peter O'Reilly para hacer mi tostada.

テラスでの食事は、眺めがよく爽快。遠くの山々が望める。但しマグパイと言う野鳥が食事目がけ襲ってくることがあるので、子供は特に用心が必要。事実我々も襲われた。食事はファストフードしかなく、私は普通のハンバーガーを食べた。大きくて食べるのが大変。玄関を出た処には野生の七面鳥がいた。全然人を警戒していなかった。此処は売店も併設してあるが、目新しいものはなく、何も買わなかった。

Had lunch here after driving up the Duck Creek Road, 4x4 track. Was the only place to visit and considering it's very remote location it was fine. price was the main issue, but expensive for what you got but I suppose they have to get all their supplies to the top of a remote 900 metre mountain.

ビュッフェスタイルの朝食はメニューが豊富でとても美味しかった。窓の外に鳥のえさ場がありきれいな鳥が集まってくるのを眺めさえずる声を聞きながら食事を楽しめます。日本人のスタッフ(昼間は土産物店で仕事)が親切に対応してくれるので子連れにはとても助かりました。野菜もフレッシュでした。生のオレンジから直接絞って飲むオレンジジュースはお勧めです。

朝食は、山の中とは思えないほど種類豊富でどれを食べても美味しかった。値段は、1人$35と高いけれど、立地を考えればこれだけ質の高い食事を提供しているのだから当然。絞りたてのオレンジジュースや、オーストラリア産のはちみつ、朝からチーズプレートが並び、フルーツも豊富。スタッフから、オムレツも頼めると声もかけられた。

Tuvimos el plato para 2, hombro de cordero. Fue cocinado a la perfección. Mi compañero dice que es el único que voy a comer el cordero. El servicio fue muy bueno, el personal era amable y eficiente. El comedor tenía un ambiente encantador. Recomiendo una estancia de fin de semana en O'Reillys Retiro, alojarse en una de las Villas, caro pero merece la pena.

La comida aquí es maravilloso. Esperaba tarifa básica pero comimos aquí 4 noches durante nuestra última visita, y cada noche era una delicia. El hombro de cordero era excepcional y uno de nuestros favoritos, así que mi marido y yo pedimos dos noches separadas. Ser la suerte de estar sentado junto a la ventana de visualización donde las zarigüeyas encantador venir para la Alimentación nocturna, hizo la experiencia aún más maravillosa.

Desayuno Buffet a $35.00 es caro pero no necesita almorzar! Las cenas también caro y bastante promedio si come carne. Sin embargo, los vegetarianos están muy mal atendidos, con poca variedad. El servicio es excelente y el personal es amable. El ambiente es precioso, rústico con fotos interesantes de la historia del lugar y puedes ver animales y aves. No te vas a comer allí con muchos niños o costaría una fortuna.

Nunca nos aventuramos a las maravillas de la Costa de Oro al interior. El viaje en coche tiene muchas curvas y vueltas con algunas secciones de un carril para que el viaje sea interesante. La calidad de la comida es muy buena en una sensación acogedora cabaña de madera, con el bar en la 2ª planta. Hay un montón de atracciones que incluyen alimentan, espectáculo de aves de presa, caminatas en la selva tropical con y mirador de los puentes de Sky más de 30 plataformas sobre el dosel del bosque, Segways son una opción popular y un zorro volador 25 m alta a unos 150 m. de largo para conseguir su corazón carreras a través del bosque y se abre hacia el final. Una visita obligada es la Meseta de O'Reilly's en el atardecer sobre el valle con impresionantes vistas. Una gran escapada en un ambiente tranquilo.

Las tarifas de buffet de desayuno de 5, los precios de la cena es de 3. El entorno es único y el comedor tiene buen ambiente. Por desgracia, la carne de la cena estaba seco y recocido y la sopa estaba feh. El cerezo/mousse de chocolate era muy bueno.

En una visita de un día con una familia de cinco, elegimos muchos y variados platos. Todos fueron servidos rápidamente, con sólo un plato siendo demasiado frío. Cuando dimos a conocer nuestra consternación ante esto, el personal hizo todo lo posible para disculparse y rectificar la situación - así que no hay quejas.

Family collected a vegetarian regular burrito and sweet potato fries whilst they got themselves a KFC. Being vegetarian El Mexicana has always been my favourite fast food option …. However, after their new shake up I will never use them again. According to my daughter who ordered food, there were so many limited options - no refined beans, no onions and peppers, no lettuce, only one sauce so couldn’t have sour cream and salsa which is the norm. Apparently burrito had veg chilli in it, but after inspecting it all I found was a few kidney beans. Ended up with a very small tortilla wrap with rice and black beans mixed with sour cream. No flavour, wet, no substance and a fraction of the size of normal. Size wasn’t a problem as it ended up in the bin! Sweet potatoes were burnt and portion measly. El Mexicana used to be the best Mexican and vegetarian fast food around, but unless they revert back to how they were I won’t go back. Disgusting food. Terrible options. Poor service. Poor portion control. Needs a major shake up!

First time here in several years, and not a lot has changed. It's a family pub and very noisy had a job hearing each other we first looked at sitting in the quarter area but the exterior was continually being left open and it aas very cold. Staff at the bar very were friendly and welcoming. We ordered 2 mixed grills and a gammon steak. Basically the food was OK except for the steak with the mixed grills we were asked how we wanted them done, which was both medium but both were over cooked and they couldn't be eaten the rest were fine. Don't know if we would go back.

Cons: Customer Service is often poor, I often feel like I am being pressured shout out my order at speed. Its a very uncomfortable experience. Furthermore there are often long queues to get served. Hence why I go to this subway once every few months as opposed to once a week or so in the past. Pros: Sandwiches are tasty and consistently hit the spot.
