O'reilly's Mountain Cafe

Only one hiccup from menu, otherwise, amazing quality of food, service and enough choices on menu. Wait staff are all individual, happy and interactive. Great to see all the quality timber furnishing in keeping with the eco forest theme.

The executive chef personally greeted us and the restaurant staff were consistently friendly. The meals were delicious and made with fresh ingredients for both dinner and breakfast. While the café was decent for lunch, we preferred dining in the restaurant.

We were really disappointed with the dining experience at O’Reilly’s Dining room. There was no a la carte menu. We had to pay $55 each for a 3 course menu of soup, main and dessert. The food was sub standard as was the staff. As for the restaurant it is badly in need of some refurbishment and deep clean. Old carpet, light fittings and furniture. The character of the place is great, but in neglect. Ver carta

You're in national park and have a monopoly on everything it's not going to be amazing, but it was perfectly acceptable. The decor hasn't been updated since the 90s but that's part of the charm. They have some weird addiction to soup so much soup poured out of that kitchen! But the slow cooked lamb was harmless and presented beautifully on a timber board, and the pumpkin was genuinely excellent. The cheese was supermarket quality, but again, expected and not a disaster. The service was friendly and efficient.

We ordered the A La Carte dishes Chefs special 2 dishes $68...wtf. Chicken breast was super dry and small and the Taggletelle was equivalent to a food court dish at best. Kids menu $20 was a tiny steak very small soda and 2 scoops of ice cream. Also steak dry cooked to a millimetre of cardboard. Wine and beer $10 on average only small in volume. Talk about taking advantage of a captured audience!!! I thought I was in a ski resort but I was just a short drive from semi civilization. Won't get me again $140 and still hungry!!!

The setting of the restaurant is stunning and the decor is lovely, however, I was extremely disappointed with the quality of the food given the high prices. It was evident that either they used low-quality ingredients, the ingredients were not fresh, the kitchen staff were inexperienced, or a combination of all three. I rarely complain but I felt that paying $140 for dinner for two was a complete rip-off. I would recommend visiting the location for its beauty, but I suggest bringing your own food until they make improvements to their kitchen. Ver carta

We thoroughly enjoyed our meal at O’Reilleys. The pumpkin soup was not a great start but we selected the shared lamb plate. That seemed to be the meal of the night. There were many boards being carried out groaning with lamb as well as a beautiful selection of vegetables. The meat was melt in your mouth and the veggies delicious. We selected the sticky date pudding for our dessert and it was enormous but also enormously delicious. We had to take half of it back to our room. The staff were some of the best I have ever encountered. They were professional, friendly and informative. Nothing was too much trouble. Our experience was first class and I would highly recommend it to anyone.

Here is the breakdown of my experience: I ordered a $24 soup that was substandard and tasted like it could have been $4. The kids' spaghetti and meatballs were gross and not cooked well. I felt bad that my son had to eat some of it. The meatballs were dark black and the spaghetti was clumped together, indicating that it may have been taken from an old batch. The kids' bangers and mash came with no mashed potatoes, and peas were substituted with green beans. I was told that the mashed potatoes were hidden underneath, but after showing that they were missing, the waitress was kind enough to provide a full serving to make up for the mistake. It was disappointing that such a basic element was ov...

Decades ago the restaurant served rustic food in large quantities all with a friendly smile. O'Reillys have kept up with trends and now serve only breakfast and dinner in the dining room and lunch is available in the mountain cafe only. We took the package at $85 pp per day and it is good value. Bookings are necessary due to Covid restrictions but you don't notice. Breakfast starts at 7am and there are good choices, even a European plate with cheeses, meats, pastries, fruit and yoghurt. You can get separate serves of fruit, yoghurt, pastries and breads done your way. The porridge is quite good and I enjoyed the omelette with cheese, spinach and mushroom. Expresso and cappuccino are a few dol... Ver carta
