Hayes St Wharf Bistro - Neutral Bay

A short stroll from Neutral Bay Wharf, Hayes Street Wharf Bistro is an Italian and French restaurant with a bit of a passion for seafood. We noticed this

We like to try places we haven't been to by using promotions we find on Lime and Tonic, and Travel Zoo We saw Hayes St.

Great, well balanced french food except for the strange diluted lobster bisque. Decent service. Very close to the wharf for a walk before or after dinner. We used a groupon.

Came here for a casual dinner with my husband. We were keen to have some Italian/ French food. Just found the right place. Great food and amazing service. Literally everything we orders was absolutely yum. Presentation well defined : Will certainly dine again.

We had a $99 Groupon voucher and went for lunch today. Firstly I must say that the food was nowhere near as sparse as tengjudy (a recent reviewer op Trip Advisor) mentioned. A large serving of very nice chips, 2 butterflied very large prawns, 12 average pieces of salt and pepper squid, 6 mussels in chilli sauce, 8 baby octupi, 2 smallish kilpatrick oysters and a fillet of Dory (I suspect that the lack of a black mark on the skin meant it was mirror Dory and not John Dory as offered on the deal it does state though that menu items may change). The best thing were the flavours chilli mussels were the most complex and tasty chilli sauce I have had in a long time. The butterflied prawns also had a wonderful sauce and we were also impressed with the garlic aloi. The Dory and everything else was cooked very well. Was it valued at $200. I don't think so. The owner replied to tengjudy that there was extra fish compared to the normal $79.90 platter. We only had one average fillet of Dory between 2, so where is the extra fish? They also mentioned a large portion of salad compared to normal. Four olives and 8 small pieces of fetta wouldn't be much of an upgrade, and the size was average for two. Yes there was a bottle of wine included. Unlike the platter offer, which offered a Checkerboard Sav Blanc RRP Dan Murphys $10 we were given a Tolleys Watercolour Chardy RRP $4.75. It was a reasonable drop though. Both aren't on the wine list so can't say what the restaurant price would be. Overall a very enjoyable meal not huge but not too stingy either and definitely worth up to $110 20 which is more than what we paid. we have walked out of other seafood platters of a similar price much fuller, but the flavours and the standard of cooking was better here. Service was fine but we were the only diners. Rated average due to the supposed $200 value it wasn't. Would pay $99 to have it again.
