What Travellers Say
Reviews Summary
Church Street Gourmet is praised for its delicious and well-seasoned dishes, particularly the avocado prawn wrap and flavorful curries, set within a charming building. The staff is consistently noted for being friendly and attentive, contributing to a warm dining experience. However, some guests have found certain dishes to be bland or overcooked, and there can be significant wait times for food.
"The food was delicious, fantastic, big size and very good taste! The drinks were fantastic, too. I had the passion fruit ginger and was delicious. The tuna grill was espectacular. I recommend this restaurant."
Mildred Patricia Lanning
"Nice location, great food although on the high end of cost for a restaurant/bistro like this. Similar prices to other “posher” restaurants in town with nicer courtyard settings.
Tuna on the salad was a little overdone for my palate, as were the prawns in the coconut curry, but that may be the local way.
Apart from that, clean, food was well seasoned and great flavours, friendly attentive staff."
David Ainsworth
"They provide good options to play maze, tic tac toe and find the words. Recommended to order pasta which was well cooked. Passion fruit juice was more bitter than expected. Cucumber and olive was nice but not value for money. But the wait time for the food to be served is too long. We waited for 45 min minimum. The ambience is welcoming."
