Salty Squid - Newcastle

I came here by chance a few years back and had an amazing whole BBQ schnapper. Great value, well cooked and memorable. I came back a few times and it was still good but over time it has become more expensive and the quality has deteriorated. The seafood platter is mostly chips and deep fried bits and pieces and the lobster my wife ordered was just awful and very expensive. I hope they reverse this trend because I like coming here but it seems from other reviewers that it is throwing away a promising start.

Terrific seafood at reasonable rates - I know people who eat here every week in summer because its open, light and right over the beautiful Newcastle Harbour. We share a meal sometimes because they are big serves and the ice creamery is nearby for desert. You can take your own wine - white is recommended because you'll love the calamari, the seafood platter or the fish of the day grilled or fried. You can go there after a day at the beach and not feel underdressed but you can also make it an event with friends - lunch or dinner. A pleasant experience either way

A great place for seafood..arguably the best in town.The platters are great value..and superbly cooked.The only down side is the high tables relative to the chairs and the fact that they are fixed inbplace.Fully licenced in a great location alonf the harbour side.

Good quality meal. Fast service. The menu has heaps to choose from. The Salt and pepper squid has chilli flakes on it which is a bit of a surprise if you don't like it too spicy. Great location and cold drinks. Definitely be back. ????
