What Travellers Say
Reviews Summary
HEH offers a compelling contemporary Australian dining experience with a strong focus on fresh seafood. Diners consistently praise the exceptional quality and flavor of the dishes, particularly appetizers like the charred broccoli. The restaurant maintains a relaxed, inviting atmosphere that complements the refined cuisine. While most reviews are overwhelmingly positive, some note that certain dishes, like the short ribs, didn't meet expectations, and the wine service could be more generous.
"My photos and comments reflect both of our visits here on the 30th of December 2024, and the 21st of February 2025. The atmosphere was unbelievably lively, and both my boyfriend and I were overly impressed with the food.
On both visits, the food quality was consistent, and the taste was mouthwatering.
When we think of a date night, HEH will always come to mind!"

"Was cycling by this Aussie concept restaurant themed around ‘bringing Melbourne to the Adaman’ the other day. A staff member was kind enough to come outside and explain the restaurant concept to me. It peaked my curiosity and after eating exclusively Thai cuisine (my favourite) the past days, thought I’d give HEH a go with a couple of glasses of wine and an appie. Opted for the prawn tacos (B229 / about $6.70) and it didn’t disappoint in terms of flavour, freshness and promptness of serving. My only mild criticism would be on the wine serving side - a request to taste produced hardly enough to make a sound judgement and staff wanted to mix an already opened bottle that was near the end of its shelf live with a new one. Wine here is poured using a scale, which points to some stinginess. But the newly opened Kiwi Red was great and the follow-up Chilean cab was acceptable. (Having lived more than a decade in the region I always request a taster as many establishments just don’t store their wine correctly). Reds by the glass are in the $10+ region, which is fine compared to N. American prices and taking into account extortion Thai import duties. All in all a pleasant experience. Oh and some tempting dishes on the menu were unavailable - including the signature Aussie dish Barramundi (charcoal grilled whole - B899 / about $26); charcoal grilled fillet of fish; peri peri chicken; and Australian Wagyu short ribs - M B1499; B 1699 ($43-$50)
- even though the night was young and the restaurant not busy (restaurants in war zones I’ve worked manage to maintain a full menu most of the time - just saying!). But even though the sampling size and time spent was relatively minimal this time, the efficiency, friendliness and professionalism of the staff made the biggest impression.
- My Savvy Traveller"

"Good vibe, friendly staff, recommend to book in advance if you come with group (they may ask for deposit before arrival date).
All dishes are superb, from appetizer to main dishes and dessert. We ordered fish steak (fish of the day), taste was so amazing!
Highly recommend for this place."
