Reviews Summary

Flare Restaurant is praised for its exceptional and flavorful food, particularly its signature meats and generous portions. The friendly and attentive service is a consistent standout, making for a truly great dining experience. While some mention it's not the healthiest option, diners overwhelmingly recommend it for a satisfying and enjoyable meal.

"This is a great place.

The food was great, the wine was priced affordably and the food was great.

We got the ribs, the chicken bites, buffalo wings and a balsamic and Parmesan salad. The pork ribs were my favourite.

The staff were very attentive and helpful.

Lots of people having dinner too so you know it is good.

Highly recommended."

"Been meaning to come here since it opened and finally visited and will be back!

I had the Flare tasting plate which included a sample of their dishes. All dishes were cooked to perfection and plenty of flavour. The bao was very tasty as well for the entree.

The customer service was on point and it’s a family owned and run local business.

Can’t wait to return!"

"If you're a Port Macquarie local looking for a good time and a seriously satisfying feed, look no further than Flare. They know what we want: generous portions (prepare for chip heaven!), fantastic value, and an atmosphere so friendly and happy, you'll wonder what their secret is (we suspect it involves a certain chocolate Easter bunny filled with a rather potent cocktail!). Healthy eating? Not on the menu tonight! This is about indulging, celebrating, and soaking up the good vibes. The staff are an absolute delight – attentive, friendly, and clearly part of the fun. Flare delivers a truly great night out, no fuss, just fantastic!"

Flare is the perfect family-friendly spot famous for its wagyu steak and mouthwatering sticky barbecue ribs. Along with their melt-in-the-mouth meat options direct from the grill, they also make inventive cocktails and have a great selection of beers. But it’s the next-level service and friendly staff that keep customers—both locals and vacationers—coming back time and time again.
