The menu is very extensive with lots to choose from. After reading previous reviews and noting the comments regarding the lamb rack I decided to risk it. The chef needs to understand that lamb rack should not be cooked well done. There was no pink blush and therefore it wasn’t as juicy as it should have been. It wasn’t tough though and the flavour was good. The vegetables that came with it were fresh but there was no finesse - half a carrot cut lengthwise and half a zucchini also cut lengthwise. The carrot was very hard - hardly cooked at all. My husband had the rib eye steak and whilst it was cooked to order (medium rare) it was quite chewy, certainly not what you would call tender.
Our salt and pepper calamari for entree was fantastic. Very tender.
The table beside us ordered a pizza and it was enormous! Probably at least 18 inches in diameter. Not sure if it was good but it was enough for 3 people. Overall the service was prompt and the decor is nice.
There is not a lot of options for dining out in Charleville and at least this restaurant is something other than a pub and their giving it a go.
Tonight I had the absolute pleasure of dining at On The Rocks. It was a last minute decision due to road flooding and such but, it was a good decision. The restaurant itself is beautifully located on a corner in Charleville next to the motel pool. There is a choice of inside tables and outdoor tables on the deck. This is stylishly designed. I had the lamb shank pie. It was magnificent! Delicious, melt in your mouth, lamb below a layer of peas, atop a pile of superbly prepared mash potato and luscious gravy.
The pastry was perfectly cooked. I paired it with a bottle of Wolf Blass Merlot and, oh my goodness! A meal worthy of any venue in Sydney or Melbourne. The two lovely young ladies who served me did a superb job. They were courteous, professional and attentive. Why is this place not full of Charleville and surrounds locals every night? It makes me wonder. I only hope I am flooded in tomorrow and can end up on the rocks again. A lovely evening girls. Thank you.
Amazing food, almost ate my fingers off... such a exquisite place
