    Food was very good. But having to wait 50 minutes for Entree, and over an hour for Mains was a bit much.

    Probably one of the best Tesla's I have ever eaten at. The menu eas great, the food came fast and the service was impeccable. Jacky on the front desk was simply brilliant. I would not hesitate to recommend the Callundra RSL to anyone.

    None of our meals had even the slightest amount of flavour. I had Garlic Prawns, and could taste neither garlic nor prawns. While it wasn’t expensive, it wasn’t cheap either, especially given the quality is so low. We chose this place because they had a kids club, and we thought it could keep the kids entertained while we had some conversation, but the Kids Club, was nowhere near the dining areas, and was down underground - closer to a dungeon than a fun space. Fair to say, the kids were not keen. The venue itself is an amazing building, with immense spaces - and frustratingly - could be so much more than it is. …Maybe they need to get Justin Hemmes involved
