A lot of hotels can be a bit hit and miss when it comes to dining experiences but not the Oaks Darwin. The food preparation is done in a serious open style kitchen. Quality of food was outstanding. We had the Scotch Fillet steak, lamb, and barramundi. All tastes really nice but the steak and lamb were top notch. Highly recommend this place even if not staying at the hotel.

Pavel was a most friendly and informative waiter. I was most impressed to watch the chef as he was teaching an assistant his meticulous way of plating the food. We enjoyed our selections.
