This is a nice place to hang out with friends , enjoyed the view and live music on Friday night .� Thanks for a fantastic night guys , we will definitely come back ��

Mika Ali is a good place to dine if you like your grilled meat and diverse selection of cocktail drinks. The edibles were great, the atmosphere is a little too loud but it was negligible due to “ok” soundproofing, however, the quality of service has lots of room for improvement. FOOD: Hands down, the food was great and the drinks were very good. We ordered a meat platter which came with grilled pineapple, chicken wings, pork belly, three different set of steaks flavored: Mustard, Salty and BBQ. The BBQ flavored steak was a little too saucy that it came across quite strong. The guac had a good flavor but the quantity is too small for three people. We also ordered a bowl of melted cheese garlic bread, each slice was at least 2cm thick and was overflowing with cheese and garlic. Despite the small amount of the guacamole, there was more than enough food for three people so we asked for a takeaway container which the wait staff gladly and swiftly brought to us. SERVICE: On their website, it says that their closing time on the night of our visit was 10pm. We walked in just a few minutes before 8pm and we were told that the kitchen closes in just a couple of minutes. We appreciate the subtle prompt so we ordered our food as soon as we could. By 9pm, however, one of the waitresses asked us if she could clear any of our plates, when clearly, we were still eating. Although the waitress tried to ask nicely, we felt rushed. Looking back, when we got in, the place was full. But by 9pm (one hour BEFORE the closing time stipulated on their website), when we looked around, everybody else seemed to have been kicked out so when the waitress hinted by asking if she could clear our plates, we felt pressured to leave. I hope the owner will take note of this review and realize that more revenue could have been made if only the restaurant stayed open for another hour, as stipulated on the website.

Nice staff and great value! We had the lamb shank special which was beautifully cooked and only 22$! Would definitely recommend. The pork ribs were also very nice. They have a very broad menu of food and drinks. Margerita was also tasty. Only wished there was some Latin music in the background! But we still had a great time :)

Very nice bar with a great selection of good and tasty food… with a Spanish / Latin American bent. The rump steak special with a beer is great value, especially for folks on a budget. Must say, the steak was pretty good . The atmosphere is very positive, everybody is in a good mood. Why not, we are in the Whitsundays ! On another night, I enjoyed the chicken pasta with a beer. Also delicious, and great value. Decor is fantastic, the owners have gone to a lot of trouble. Lots of seating, some overlooking the palm trees toward the Coral Sea. Lovely breeze coming through the open windows .
